Maximus Inc.

Maximus Inc., headquartered in McLean, Virginia, operates as a for-profit corporate parent providing administrative management consulting, program management support, custom computer programming, and information technology services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards) and, in smaller measure, as a subcontractor. The vendor does not hold SBA set-aside designations and competes in full-and-open federal procurements across a diverse agency base.

Maximus's capability portfolio spans administrative and management consulting (128 awards in the NAICS category), custom computer programming (60 awards), IT systems analysis and telecommunications support (70 awards), medical IT services (48 awards), and computer peripheral equipment manufacturing and resale (103 awards). Representative prime work includes administration of federal food and nutrition programs for the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service (31 awards), drug enforcement investigative support for the Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration (23 awards, $90.8 million combined potential value), and health IT services for the Defense Health Agency (11 awards, $25.9 million). A $10,220 small-business-set-aside purchase order from the Bureau of Prisons for holiday bags for inmates represents a micro-scale outlier in the portfolio. The vendor also acts as a grant sub-recipient under the State of Wisconsin Department of Health Services and Department of Children and Families, delivering workforce development and employment services administration (FSET Transportation, FSET Retention, Wisconsin Works administration) across multiple sub-awards dating from 2023 to July 2026.

Customer concentration is diffuse across 52 distinct agencies. The top five funding entities by award count (Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service, Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice Offices Boards and Divisions, Office of Personnel Management, and GSA Federal Acquisition Service) account for 21% of total awards. By potential dollar value, concentration narrows: the Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration and the Social Security Administration anchor the portfolio with $90.8 million and $52.2 million respectively, while the Defense Health Agency carries $25.9 million across 11 awards. This divergence signals that while Maximus holds many transactional relationships with civilian agencies, the highest-value contracts flow from DOJ and SSA.

Maximus maintains positions on five major parent vehicles. The Federal Supply Schedule GS35F4731G carries 103 task orders worth $75.6 million; GS35F5100H holds 25 task orders for $50.6 million. The DOJ Asset Forfeiture Investigative Support Services vehicle anchors 23 task orders valued at $122.6 million. Two indefinite delivery contracts (01C0324 with 80 task orders, $27.5 million, and OPM0201129 with 32 task orders, $2 million) provide additional task-order volume. These vehicles position Maximus to bid on orders from multiple agencies without re-competing on the underlying IDV or schedule.

Award activity shows growth across the last five years captured in the source: one award in 2020, then 11 in 2023, 18 in 2024, 9 in 2025, and 4 through July 2026. The source does not provide a recompete cliff summary; the most recent award dates from July 2026, suggesting the portfolio is recent and skewed toward active performance. Maximus operates almost exclusively as a prime contractor (92% of awards), with subcontracting activity (8% of awards) limited to named sub-award relationships under state grantees rather than significant sub positions to other federal primes.

Service Contract Inventory captures minimal activity: one SCI record in FY2022 as a named subcontractor, reflecting 22.0 FTEs. This limited SCI footprint indicates that most of Maximus's federal revenue flows through goods procurement, micro-purchases, classified contracts, or non-service-contract vehicles outside the SCI reporting scope — a posture consistent with the vendor's heavy reliance on GSA schedules and DoJ/SSA task-order vehicles rather than large cost-reimbursable service contracts.

Maximus operates through six named subsidiaries: Maximus US Services Inc., Maximus Human Services Inc., Maximus Federal Services Inc., Attain Suprtek LLC, Business Computer Applications Inc., and Maximus Consulting Services Inc. These subsidiaries likely compartmentalize delivery across distinct capability areas — human services administration, federal IT service delivery, and consulting — but the source does not detail corporate strategy or allocation of work among them.
