Modern Technology Solutions, Inc.

Modern Technology Solutions, Inc., a 100% employee-owned Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor and subcontractor delivering systems engineering, software development, digital engineering, modeling and simulation, and mission-critical technical support across defense and intelligence domains. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurement and does not hold SBA set-aside certifications; recent activity shows growth from 43 awards in 2022 to 153 in 2024, though with significant recompete exposure of $600.6 million in awards completing within the next twenty-four months.

Modern Technology Solutions holds a mega-portfolio of federal vehicles anchoring its competitive position. The vendor sits on the 151-billion-dollar Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ with the Missile Defense Agency (awarded December 2025), the $4.797 billion NOVASTAR IDIQ with the National Air and Space Intelligence Center, the $2.5 billion Hemisphere IDIQ with Space and Missile Systems Center, the $999 billion OASIS+ Unrestricted civilian IDIQ under GSA, the $48.5 billion DoD Information Analysis Center multiple-award MAC, the $46 billion Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract (EWAAC) with the Air Force, and the $416 million Responsive Warfighter Technology Integration Program single-award IDIQ with Air Combat Command. The vendor also holds a $916 million Research Engineering and Technical Services IDIQ with the Office of the Secretary of Defense and a GSA Multiple Award Schedule position. Across these vehicles, MTSI places hundreds of task orders annually; the top five vehicles generated 350 task orders combined, with EWAAC fourth on-ramp (March 2025) and NOVASTAR delivery orders dominating the Intelligence Community work stream.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward defense and intelligence agencies. The top five customers by potential value—the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command ($82.56 billion), the Office of the Secretary of Defense ($49.95 billion), the Department of the Air Force ($47.32 billion), the Air Force's National Air and Space Intelligence Center ($5.05 billion), and Space and Missile Systems Center ($3.53 billion)—account for 97% of combined potential value across all awards. By award count, the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command (157 awards, $134.3 million), Missile Defense Agency (94 awards, $667.5 million), the Army proper (57 awards), Army PEO Missiles and Space (52 awards, $2.4 million), and Air Force DFAS (39 awards, $625.1 million) drive volume. This split reflects a portfolio anchored by a small number of very large IDIQs that dwarf traditional task-order activity.

Representative recent prime work includes a $194.4 million delivery order from Aeronautical Systems Center for technical and management expertise to Special Programs Division AFLCMC WAG under the MAS vehicle (May 2026, Wright-Patterson AFB), a $625 million delivery order from USAF DFAS under the OASIS SB small-business IDIQ for the ARCWERX ARTEMIS program spanning program management, R&D, software development, digital engineering, aircraft and aerospace systems integration, mission concepts of operations, and training (January 2025, Tucson AZ), a $232.3 million definitive contract from Space and Missile Systems Center for space command and control mission-area prototyping and process delivery (January 2025, El Segundo CA), a $160.7 million delivery order from Missile Defense Agency under EWAAC for threat system engineering products and services (September 2025, Huntsville AL), a $115.5 million delivery order from Air Force for AF Global Strike Command Technology Integration SBIR Phase III (April 2026, Nellis AFB), and multiple six-figure NOVASTAR delivery orders spanning autonomous and manned aircraft modeling and simulation ($47.05 billion ceiling order in July 2025), ballistic missile support ($28.7 million), and analytic support ($31.9 million) through intelligence analysis, threat characterization, and systems engineering.

MTSI operates as a prime on 58% of its recent awards and subcontracts on 42%. Across SCI-reportable service contracts (a partial view capturing only contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold, FY2022–FY2024), the vendor invoiced $33.5 million total as a prime—$13.2 million in FY2022, $11.3 million in FY2023, and $9.1 million in FY2024—with a median government-paid rate around $61.65 per hour, ranging from $23.72/hr at the 10th percentile to $77.64/hr at the 90th percentile. SCI data show roughly 252 FTEs in FY2022, dropping to 74 in FY2023, then recovering to 125 in FY2024. On prime contracts captured in SCI, subcontractors account for approximately 31% of total contractor hours, with 57 named subcontractors engaged across the prime service-contract footprint.

Modern Technology Solutions frequently subcontracts to primes including Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (recurring work on Ballistic Missile Defense International Simulation, Missile Defense Space Warning Tool, Threat Modeling Center, and Intelligence Systems Infrastructure Tools and Enhancements), Torch Technologies Inc. (aviation and missile modeling, simulation, and analysis; future vertical lift; weapons development and integration), Leidos Inc., Kratos S2 Inc., Science Applications International Corporation, and a range of smaller defense and aerospace contractors. In its prime role, MTSI engages subcontractors including HII Mission Technologies Corp, Serco Inc., KBR Inc., Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., and specialized small business partners such as Darkstar Intelligence (SDVOSB), Allen Integrated Solutions (EDWOSB and 8(a)), and Ventus Executive Solutions (SDVOSB).

The vendor's GSA Schedule labor catalog spans 74 categories, ranging from Administrative Support 1 at $44.49/hr to Subject Matter Expert 5 at $286.53/hr, with roles spanning configuration management, systems analysis, program management, and engineering disciplines. Education requirements run from high school through bachelor's degree; no cleared positions are offered on the Schedule itself, though recent delivery orders carry security clearance language ranging from Secret to Top Secret SCI/SAP for classified work.

By NAICS, research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences (372 awards) dominates the vendor's categorization, followed by engineering services (168 awards) and R&D in physical and engineering sciences excluding nanotechnology and biotechnology (128 awards). Custom computer programming services account for 56 awards. The vendor competes across 57 distinct federal agencies, reflecting breadth across DoD, intelligence community, Space Force, Army, Navy, and Air Force commands, along with non-defense customers.
