Msab Incorporated

Msab Incorporated, doing business as Msab Inc., is a subsidiary of Swedish digital forensics company Micro Systemation AB that delivers mobile device forensics software, hardware kits, and training to federal law enforcement and national security agencies, operating predominantly as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards) with a significant presence on indefinite delivery contracts and GSA schedules.

Msab Inc. is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia and competes primarily full-and-open, with selective small-business set-aside awards on specific vehicles. The company's core offering centers on XRY mobile device forensics software (logical and physical extraction), XAMN data analysis tools, XEC digital evidence management systems, Berla iVe vehicle infotainment forensic extraction platforms, and associated training, custom cable kits, and hardware accessories. Representative prime work includes a $6.6 million indefinite delivery contract with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (awarded June 1, 2022, running through May 31, 2027) for mobile phone forensic data extraction tools, software licenses, and training; a $1.32 million small-business-set-aside IDC with CBP (also June 1, 2022) for Berla iVe toolkits and training; and a $1.59 million firm-fixed-price definitive contract awarded by the Department of Defense Air Force Office of Special Investigations on December 10, 2025, for XRY Pro licenses, subscriptions, and investigative support through December 2028 at Quantico, Virginia.

Customer concentration is dominated by law enforcement and border security missions. The top five funding agencies account for 48% of awards by count and 65% of combined potential value. Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection leads both metrics with 58 awards carrying $17.1 million in combined potential value, followed by the Department of Justice Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives ($4.5 million across 13 awards), DHS Federal Law Enforcement Training Center ($4.4 million across 14 awards), Department of Justice FBI Headquarters Division ($3.9 million across 41 awards), and the Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement ($1.1 million across 12 awards). Msab has also served smaller federal customers including the Naval Special Warfare Command, U.S. Special Operations Command, U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command, the Internal Revenue Service, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Coast Guard, and the Office of the Inspector General.

Msab holds multiple vehicle positions anchoring task-order activity. The Multiple Award Schedule carries 47 task orders totaling $3 million in combined potential value. Two CBP indefinite delivery contracts dominate the footprint: IDC 70B06C22D00000009 (the $6.6 million mobile forensics vehicle) supports 24 task orders with $5.9 million in combined potential value, and IDC 70B06C22D00000012 (the $1.32 million Berla iVe small-business set-aside) carries 14 task orders valued at $1.3 million. An additional indefinite delivery contract with an unspecified agency (H9225417D0001) carries 13 task orders, and HSFLGL17D00002 (likely a DHS FLETC vehicle) supports 8 task orders totaling $691 thousand.

Award activity has remained relatively stable year over year, with 22 awards in 2022, 25 in 2023, 22 in 2024, declining to 18 in 2025, and 12 awards through late September 2026. Fourteen awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $3.1 million and represent recompete exposure primarily concentrated on CBP and FLETC renewals.

In its subcontractor role (8% of recent awards), Msab delivers forensics licensing and training support to Lockheed Martin on U.S. Army Europe exploitation and special operations forces emerging threats contracts, to Caci Inc. and Caci NSS on Africa Command operations planning and special operations forces support, to Peraton Enterprise Solutions on DC3 Cyber Crime Defense Center support, and to Leidos on DHS Homeland Enterprise Information Technology Secure Services task orders. Subcontract values range from software license renewals to multi-option-year forensics training engagements.

Msab's capability portfolio concentrates on mobile device forensics, vehicle infotainment extraction, and evidence management—a specialized niche where the company operates as the exclusive or near-exclusive vendor for its proprietary XRY, XAMN, and Berla platforms across federal agencies. The company competes in full-and-open procurement across DHS and DOJ, with selective total-small-business-set-aside awards on specific CBP and FBI delivery orders. Combined potential value across all recent awards stands at $47.8 million, with $25.6 million obligated (54% capture rate), reflecting steady recurring license-renewal demand from established customer relationships rather than new capability expansion.
