Aegis Aerospace Inc.

Aegis Aerospace Inc., doing business as MEI Technologies, Inc., is a women-owned small business headquartered in Webster, Texas, that delivers aerospace engineering, space systems research and development, test and evaluation, and systems integration services as a prime contractor (74% of recent awards) across multiple federal vehicles and agencies. The vendor competes under both full-and-open and set-aside vehicles; it holds SBA women-owned small business (WOSB) seats on OASIS+ WOSB and OASIS+ Total Small Business IDIQs and pursues unrestricted work through OASIS+ Unrestricted, NASA REMIS2, Air Force TETRAS II, and agency-specific vehicles without set-aside restrictions.

Corporate structure includes two named subsidiaries: MEI Technologies, Inc. (veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, Hispanic American-owned) and Alpha Space Test And Research Alliance, LLC (minority-owned, woman-owned, Hispanic American-owned). The parent entity and subsidiaries together serve 20 distinct customer agencies across defense, space, and civilian portfolios.

Customer concentration splits between the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (4 awards, $4 billion combined potential value anchored by the Seaport-NXG IDIQ awarded January 2, 2025, running through January 1, 2029) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Johnson Space Center (24 awards, $1.12 billion combined potential value). The Department of the Air Force and Air Force Materiel Command together account for 45 awards and $900.1 million plus $1.03 billion respectively; the top five customers by potential value cover 95% of the combined $8.23 billion potential value across all awards. Most recent award activity arrived September 30, 2026, with two awards in fiscal 2026 following higher velocity in 2023–2024 (21 and 23 awards respectively) and a deceleration to 10 awards in 2025.

Aegis holds substantive positions on ten named federal vehicles. The OASIS+ Total Small Business IDIQ (GSA Federal Acquisition Service, awarded December 19, 2024, ceiling $999,999,999,999, through December 18, 2029) shows 32 task orders worth $127.7 million. The Missile Defense Agency SHIELD IDIQ (awarded December 29, 2025, ceiling $151 billion, through December 28, 2035) represents a multi-billion-dollar acquisition vehicle with full-and-open competition for advanced multi-domain defense systems including research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, and test and evaluation; Aegis received an initial $500 minimum-guarantee task order. The Seaport-NXG vehicle carries a $4 billion ceiling; the NASA REMIS2 vehicle (Johnson Space Center, awarded January 12, 2024, $478 million ceiling, through September 30, 2030) funds spaceflight and ground hardware, sustaining engineering, payload facility integration, and mission integration and operations. The Air Force TETRAS II vehicle (Air Force Materiel Command, June 30, 2023, $999,950,435 ceiling, through June 29, 2028) procures test and evaluation systems and facilities at Eglin Air Force Base and subordinate range facilities for 5th and 6th generation weapons systems and radio frequency spectrum transition planning. Aegis also holds seats on OASIS+ WOSB (GSA, June 12, 2025, through June 11, 2030), OASIS+ Unrestricted (GSA, December 17, 2024, through December 16, 2029), and vehicles with NASA Johnson Space Center ($5 million IDC, awarded September 30, 2026), Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Architecture and Integration Directorate ($900 million, December 9, 2022, through November 14, 2027 for multi-domain systems development and rapid prototyping), and GSA ASTRO GWAC ($3.5 million, awarded November 15, 2021, through November 14, 2031).

Recent representative prime work includes a $149,615 NASA SBIR Phase I award (August 7, 2024) for the Payload Universal Multi-Purpose Adapter (PUMA) payload adapter design research and development, a $28,472.80 Kennedy Space Center purchase order for an Aegis 6-port Ethernet switch (September 14, 2026), and a $24,523.76 Air Force funding transfer contract (April 24, 2025) to secure previous payment for two T-6B virtual reality simulators. The vendor also holds minimum-guarantee delivery orders on SHIELD ($500, December 29, 2025) and Seaport-NXG ($500, March 6, 2025).

Aegis operates as a subcontractor on major NASA and defense programs. Named primes include Applied Research Solutions, Inc. (engineering and administrative support services across Missile Defense Agency directorates, with multiple EPASS task order sub-awards from April 2023 through April 2024), Lockheed Martin Corp (GeoXO spacecraft design and structures engineering support, April 2025), Amentum Technology, Inc. (Integrated Review and Evaluation Services IRES support for Missile Defense Agency baseline integrity and technical execution, January–April 2024, including a $750,000 time-and-materials labor funding increment), KBR Wyle Services, LLC (Human Health and Performance Contract 2 labor services, September 2025), and others including Orion Production and Operations Contract work (multiple sub-awards 2022–2024, propulsion and work-breakdown support), COMET Consolidated Operations support (May 2023), and advisory services under CACI Federal (Joint Navigation Warfare Center, August 2024). Sub-award work emphasizes labor services, engineering support, and program operations across Missile Defense Agency, NASA, and Space Force directorates.

The vendor's NAICS footprint centers on Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (55 awards), Engineering Services (24 awards), and Space Research and Technology (20 awards). The PSC profile emphasizes R&D Defense System Missile/Space Systems Management/Support (39 awards) and Space Vehicle Components (12 awards). SCI-reported service contract activity is minimal across the 2022–2025 period, with no invoiced prime revenue and declining FTE trajectory (48.6 in FY2022, 40.7 in FY2024, 11.3 in FY2025), reflecting the vendor's orientation toward product procurement, research awards, and delivery-order work on IDIQs rather than time-and-materials service contracts. Of the 186 total awards in the source, combined obligations stand at $1.11 billion (14% of combined potential value), indicating substantial unfunded or partially funded ceiling capacity across vehicles.
