Morphworks Inc.

Morphworks Inc., a for-profit corporate entity based in Tysons, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor on defense R&D and federal IT modernization programs, competing under full-and-open procurement with no recurring set-aside designation. The vendor holds a $151 billion IDIQ contract awarded by the Missile Defense Agency on January 21, 2026, designated the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD), and maintains a secondary presence as a named subcontractor on federal IT service work. Morphworks operates as the parent entity of Arrowpoint Corporation, a named subsidiary.

The vendor's federal footprint remains nascent. Recent awards total six across prime and sub roles, with combined potential value of $6 million and $2.7 million obligated to date. Prime work (83% of recent awards) clusters in the Department of Justice (Justice Management Division, $5.6 million for data center transformation initiative support services under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule through September 2029, time-and-materials, set aside for Total Small Business) and the Department of Defense (the $151 billion SHIELD IDIQ; a $500 initial delivery order under SHIELD to the Missile Defense Agency). A June 2026 delivery order from the Department of Defense's Assistant Secretary for Financial Resources, valued at $223,140 under the GSA MAS, procures a risk scoring proof-of-concept phase 1 pilot completing September 30, 2026. In its sub capacity, Morphworks delivers information technology consulting services to ManTech Advanced Systems International on the CDM DEFEND Group E Bridge Task Order (cybersecurity work under the DHS cyber defense program framework).

Morphworks places task orders across two active parent vehicles: the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (two task orders, $5.9 million combined potential value) and the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense IDIQ. The vendor's top customers by both award count and potential value diverge slightly — the Justice Management Division dominates dollar value ($5.6 million on a single multi-year order), while the Missile Defense Agency holds two awards but at modest dollar magnitude ($500). The Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service, and the Department of Health and Human Services' Assistant Secretary for Financial Resources round out the customer set.

The vendor's capability portfolio, grounded in recent work, spans defense systems engineering and cybersecurity modernization under the SHIELD framework (which procures research, development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and modernization efforts across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threat domains) and federal IT service delivery, particularly data center transformation and risk management. GSA Schedule labor offerings span thirty distinct categories at rates from $98.95/hr (Security Specialist I, bachelor's degree, two years' experience, no clearance required) through $287.96/hr (Consultant IV, bachelor's degree, twelve years' experience, no clearance required), with a mid-range concentration in technical advisor and project management roles ($137–$181/hr).

Across the Service Contract Inventory dataset (FY2022–FY2024), Morphworks reports zero prime-contract SCI records and five named-subcontractor SCI records, reflecting roughly 7.3 to 8.6 FTEs delivered annually on federal service contracts in the reportable threshold. No SCI prime invoicing is recorded; the vendor's federal revenue visibility derives primarily from its IDIQ ceiling and task-order awards. One award—the $223 thousand DoD risk scoring pilot—reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and faces recompete exposure. The vendor's award trajectory shows sparse but growing activity: one award in 2020, a gap through 2023, then two awards in 2024 and three in 2026 to date, with the January 2026 SHIELD IDIQ award representing a material structural shift toward defense-sector work.
