Techno-Sciences, LLC

Techno-Sciences, LLC, a for-profit limited liability company based in Lanham, Maryland, operates exclusively as a prime contractor on federal satellite communications, search and rescue, and space systems maintenance work, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designations across 256 recent prime awards totaling $112.3 million in combined potential value.

Techno-Sciences' capability portfolio centers on operations and maintenance of satellite search-and-rescue infrastructure, phased array antenna procurement and integration, and mission control center sustainment. The vendor specializes in Medium Earth Orbit and Low Earth Orbit local user terminal (MEOLUT) operations, hardware-software sustainment for search and rescue satellite systems, and commercial off-the-shelf integration with legacy federal space infrastructure. Named representative work includes a $11.3 million firm-fixed-price definitive contract awarded by NOAA in October 2021 for operations and maintenance of SARSAT MEOLUTs in Hawaii and Florida, including refurbishment and new phased array antenna installation; a $3.4 million NOAA procurement for a phased array antenna supporting the Guam SARSAT program; a $5.1 million NOAA purchase order for operations and maintenance of nine existing LEO/MEO local user terminals and a development location processor; and a recently awarded $9.75 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract with NASA Goddard Space Center running through March 31, 2031 for maintenance, sustainment, and modernization of NASA search and rescue systems, with an initial delivery order of $951,186.54 issued April 1, 2026.

Customer concentration is dominated by two civilian space and maritime agencies. NOAA accounts for 38 awards and $48.4 million in combined potential value across the top customer rankings, while NASA Goddard Space Center anchors the second-largest dollar concentration at $24.6 million across five awards. The Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard holds 47 awards but only $3.7 million in combined potential value—a volume-versus-dollars divergence reflecting smaller per-order values. The top five customers by potential value represent 83% of the combined potential-value base.

Techno-Sciences holds positions on five active indefinite-delivery contracts. The largest vehicle is HSCG2316DMNQ027 (US Coast Guard) with 36 task orders and $575 thousand combined potential value; W15QKN05D0026 (Army) carries 7 task orders and $271 thousand; W91CRB13D0018 (Army) has 3 task orders and $515 thousand. The newly awarded NASA IDIQ 80GSFC26D0008 is expected to generate the higher-value task orders going forward.

Activity has contracted significantly in recent years—three awards in 2020 declining to one per year in 2022 and 2024, with only two awards recorded in 2026. Five awards totaling $27.8 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure. Awards are concentrated in search-and-detection system manufacturing (53 awards by NAICS 381111) and engineering services (29 awards), with secondary concentration in physical-science R&D (27 awards). Top PSCs reflect the mix: miscellaneous communication equipment (22 awards), defense and other basic research (18 and 14 awards respectively), and radio/television communication equipment (16 awards).

Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal SCI-reportable invoicing in the coverage window: $4 million in FY2022 across 1.4 FTEs and $6.1 million in FY2023 across 4.2 FTEs, with zero SCI-reported invoicing in FY2024. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $288.89/hr to a median of $588.25/hr and a 90th percentile of $1,864.90/hr. The vendor operates without named subcontractors on its SCI-reportable prime contracts. Techno-Sciences has maintained a federal contracting presence since 2002 and has earned over $40 million in awards since 2019 from NASA, NOAA, and the U.S. Coast Guard according to GovTribe summary data.
