Malik Consulting, Inc.

Malik Consulting, Inc., doing business as Metric5, an SBA-certified small business based in Atlanta, Georgia, delivers Oracle PeopleSoft implementations, enterprise application technical support, and IT systems modernization services to civilian federal agencies, operating as both a prime contractor (41% of recent awards) and a subcontractor to larger integrators (59% of recent awards). The company competes predominantly under Total Small Business and Partial Small Business set-asides across multiple federal vehicles.

Customer concentration is extreme and skewed heavily toward the Department of the Treasury. Treasury's Departmental Offices account for 28 of 39 prime and sub awards with explicit agency attribution, representing $266.2 million in combined potential value — roughly 94% of the company's non-GWAC work. Within that Treasury footprint, Metric5 operates primarily as a subcontractor to International Business Machines Corporation and Octo Metric LLC (a Metric5 subsidiary) on enterprise application support, HRConnect technical services, and eDiscovery systems work. The company also subcontracts to Accenture Federal Services LLC on real estate management system operations and maintenance. The remaining work spans the Federal Emergency Management Agency (4 awards), the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration (3 awards), the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (2 awards, $4.9 million), and single awards with the GSA Federal Acquisition Service and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The vendor's vehicle position is anchored by two enormous GWAC awards issued in November 2026 that inflate the combined potential value to $80.28 billion. Both are SEWP VI (Small Business and Partial Small Business multiple-award GWACs issued by NASA with $20 billion ceilings each, running through October 2026). The source does not report task-order activity yet against SEWP VI. More operationally meaningful are the IRS Enterprise Application Technical Services (EATS) BPA, a $205 million Treasury vehicle awarded November 2025, and the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, which carries 49 task orders totaling $251.2 million in combined potential value. Metric5 also holds positions on the CIO-SP3 Small Business GWAC and the 8(a) Streamlined Technology Acquisition Resources for Services (8(a) STARS) GWAC.

Within the EATS BPA, Metric5 has captured five call orders worth $46.2 million combined. The largest, a $37.6 million firm fixed-price call issued February 5, 2026, funds enterprise applications technical support, HRConnect technical services, and transition support through October 29, 2030. A $4.9 million call (January 30, 2026) covers enterprise data management technical services through January 29, 2031. Two additional calls (March 30, 2026) provide $1.5 million for API platform services and $621 thousand for integrated talent management configuration support, completing December 2026. The EATS BPA is the only major award at near-term recompete risk; one call worth $621 thousand completes within the next twenty-four months.

Activity has grown sharply in recent years: five awards in 2022, two in 2023, eight in 2024, nine in 2025, and twelve in 2026 year-to-date. The company's capability portfolio centers on Oracle PeopleSoft configuration and development, HRConnect administration, enterprise data management and business intelligence (Power BI and Dataverse), application programming interfaces, eDiscovery and content management systems (FOIAXpress), and enterprise email modernization. GSA Schedule labor offerings span eighteen categories priced from $84.18/hr (Computer Programmer I with associate degree) to $275.77/hr (COTS/Enterprise Product Specialist with bachelor's degree), with no security-cleared roles listed.

Service Contract Inventory data shows SCI-reportable invoiced revenue of $5.4 million across prime contracts from FY2022–FY2024 (FY2025 reporting not yet complete in the source). The vendor's federal services workforce, per SCI records, peaked at 47.3 FTEs in FY2022, declined to 3.6 FTEs in FY2023, and recovered to 7.6 FTEs in FY2024 and 6.9 FTEs in FY2025 — a profile consistent with the shift from prime to subcontractor-dominant work. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $148.74/hr, with senior labor pricing through $169.09/hr. Across prime contracts, subcontractors accounted for an average 54% of total contractor hours, with seven named subcontractors reported. Metric5 owns four subsidiaries — Octo Metric LLC, Metric 8 LLC, Octo Metric Secured LLC, and Idea Solutions LLC — all structured as small business joint ventures and leveraged across the Treasury and other agency customer base.
