Navanti Group LLC

Navanti Group LLC, doing business as Navanti Group, is a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, that delivers market research, development and stabilization analysis, program evaluation, and technical advisory services to federal agencies across civilian and defense sectors, operating as a prime contractor on 97% of recent awards and holding four significant federal IDIQs with a combined potential ceiling exceeding $4.2 billion.

Navanti competes predominantly on full-and-open vehicles rather than through set-asides, though it qualifies for and uses Total Small Business set-aside designations on certain task orders. The vendor's customer concentration is heavily skewed toward high-ceiling IDVs rather than numerous small prime awards. The Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for $4 billion of the combined potential value through a single SeaPort-NXG IDIQ awarded January 2, 2025, with a January 1, 2029 completion date. The Department of State's Office of Acquisition Management anchors a $150 million Performance Management, Evaluation, and Learning Services (PMELS) IDIQ awarded April 3, 2023, completing April 2, 2028. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Mexico holds a $95 million combined potential value across two awards. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service awarded Navanti a $999.999 billion ceiling OASIS+ Total Small Business Set-Aside IDIQ on December 19, 2024, completing December 18, 2029, positioning the vendor to compete for task orders across all federal agencies. A $70 million GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (47QRAA23D0010) awarded October 27, 2022, carries a $70 million ceiling through October 26, 2027. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support, while representing 15 of Navanti's 62 awards, carries only $488 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting smaller discrete market-research purchase orders spanning mortuary affairs, industrial base extension (IBEx), rare earth, medical devices, and agricultural produce analysis across SOUTHCOM, CENTCOM, and Indo-Pacific regions.

Recent capability work demonstrates a portfolio spanning development evaluation, market intelligence, and defense logistics. Concrete examples include a $3.33 million research support delivery order from a civilian federal agency (awarded September 15, 2025, under GSA Multiple Award Schedule); $12.66 million and $17.5 million firm fixed-price delivery orders from Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) for 14 instructors in Lawton, Oklahoma (both awarded August 25, 2025, Total Small Business set-asides, completing August 24, 2030); a $25.018 million Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee delivery order from the U.S. Mission in Mexico for Third Party Monitoring Program work in Nigeria (awarded September 25, 2024, subsequently terminated for convenience on February 26, 2025, under OASIS SB); a $3.48 million cost-plus-fixed-fee task order from USAID's U.S. Mission in Kosovo for democracy, rights, and governance sectoral analysis (awarded September 30, 2021, under DCHA-DRG Analytical Services IV IDIQ, completing March 31, 2026); and a $2.39 million purchase order from U.S. Special Operations Command for data collection services in Africa (awarded April 1, 2022, completing March 31, 2027). IBEx work includes a $32,500 purchase order for SOUTHCOM fresh fruit and vegetable capacity analysis (Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support, awarded February 11, 2026, completing February 10, 2027), a $70,000 purchase order for medical device manufacturing capacity assessment across Australia, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan (awarded August 18, 2025, completing November 19, 2025), and prior studies on mortuary affairs across Iraq, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Australia, Guam, Japan, and the Indo-Pacific region ranging from $36,000 to $60,000.

Activity has fluctuated modestly — five awards in 2022, ten in 2023, six in 2024, nine in 2025, and two through February 2026. Three awards carrying $4 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing modest recompete exposure relative to the vendor's multi-billion-dollar pipeline. Across NAICS framing, Navanti concentrates in Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (15 awards), All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (13 awards), and Process, Physical Distribution, and Logistics Consulting Services (12 awards). PSC coding clusters around Support-Professional (Program Management/Support) with 16 awards and Special Studies/Analysis-Other with 14 awards.

On the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, Navanti offers nine labor categories spanning Consultant 1 through Subject Matter Expert, with hourly rates ranging from $92.94 to $287.48 per hour. Consultant and Team Lead roles require bachelor's degrees; Project Manager, Director, and higher tiers span bachelor's to master's degrees. No security-cleared positions are offered. The rate spectrum supports field operations ranging from junior analytical support through senior subject-matter expertise without cleared labor.

SCI-reportable invoicing on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $18.5 million across FY2022 through FY2024 (FY2022: $6.2 million, FY2023: $6.5 million, FY2024: $5.8 million), with approximately 15–25 FTEs delivered annually against prime contracts. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts ran a median of $189.57 per hour, with rates ranging from the 10th percentile at $94.56 per hour to the 90th percentile at $303.73 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors represented 14% of total contractor hours on average, with four named subcontractors appearing in the dataset. The vendor maintains a subsidiary, Gems Associates LLC, structured as a small business joint venture.

Navanti operates as a prime on 97% of awards and subcontracts minimally. Named subcontract engagement shows work as a subcontractor to DAI Global LLC on a $24.46 million incremental funding action under the Sustainable Resilience and Performance Strengthening (SRPS) Program (award date September 5, 2023, for learning, monitoring, evaluation, and research support), and to Piton Science and Technology LLC on learning and organizational development services for USAID's Bureau for Conflict Prevention and Stabilization (October 13, 2022). The vendor's vehicle positioning spans GSA Multiple Award Schedule task orders ($33.6 million combined potential value across five task orders), Management Excellence for Operations (MEO) IDIQ task orders ($1.2 million across five orders), and $5 million DoD Blanket Purchase Agreement for global market research reports (awarded September 14, 2021, completing September 13, 2026, with $230,500 in task orders to date). Navanti's customer base spans 29 distinct federal agencies, with concentration anchored to three large IDIQs rather than volume across numerous small orders.
