About Mente Systems Inc.
Mente Systems Inc., doing business as The Inc Lab, is a minority-owned, woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Tysons, Virginia, that delivers artificial intelligence, machine learning, software development, and intelligent systems design to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor operating exclusively in full-and-open competition (100% of recent awards carry no set-aside designation). The vendor holds positions on a multi-billion-dollar defense IDIQ portfolio and competes for task orders across research, development, and systems engineering work.
Mente's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Navy. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for $4 billion in combined potential value across two awards — the $4 billion SeaPort-NXG multiple-award IDIQ running through January 1, 2029, and a $500 minimum guarantee task order on that vehicle. The Department of the Air Force contributes $95 million in potential value through a $94.999 million Other Transaction IDV (SOMPE PRODUCTION OTA, Exercise Option Year 3, awarded March 31, 2023). The United States Special Operations Command accounts for two awards totaling $684 thousand in combined potential value, including a $209.358 thousand Small Business Technology Transfer Phase I contract awarded August 18, 2023, for a feasibility study on artificial intelligence and machine learning aided aviation sensors (SOCOM Topic 23B-001), and a $475 thousand OTA for SOMPE CSO (Special Operations Medical Programs and Equipment Cross-Support Office). The Department of Defense Missile Defense Agency accounts for two awards totaling $500 in combined potential value: a $151 billion multiple-award Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ awarded January 21, 2026, and a $500 delivery order on that IDIQ.
The SHIELD IDIQ represents the vendor's largest vehicle position. It covers research and development, prototyping, disruptive technologies, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization of multi-domain defense systems capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all flight phases. Work encompasses classified and unclassified efforts leveraging artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures, with performance potential in Huntsville, Alabama and other locations. The SeaPort-NXG position, under primary NAICS 541330 (Facilities Support Services), allows task order competition for facilities support, engineering, logistics, and technical capabilities across Navy SYSCOMs including NAVAIR, NAVWAR, NAVFAC, NAVSUP, and Office of Naval Research.
Activity remains sparse but capital-intensive. Nine awards span 2019 to 2026, with $4.1 billion in combined potential value but only $33.6 million obligated to date (1% of ceiling), signaling early-stage IDV utilization. The vendor has not yet established subcontractor relationships in the source data; all nine awards reflect prime positions. Primary NAICS concentration centers on research and development in the physical, engineering, and life sciences (4 awards), with secondary coding in engineering services and professional technical services; PSC concentration aligns with national defense R&D and support professional services.
