Neoskye Inc.

Neoskye Inc., a minority-owned, Asian-Pacific American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Newington, Connecticut, conducts defense and civilian R&D as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides, with a portfolio anchored on Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I and Phase II contracts for advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, optical computing, digital engineering, and autonomous systems.

Neoskye operates entirely as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) with no subcontract footprint. The vendor's customer base spans eight distinct federal agencies, but concentration is steep. The Department of the Army anchors 50% of combined potential value through a single $1.7 million SBIR Phase II award for "Datalink-Enabled AI for Fires Optimization" with an ultimate completion date of August 19, 2024. The Air Force Research Laboratory and the NASA Shared Services Center each account for two awards (combined $360 thousand and $300 thousand respectively), while the CDC Pittsburgh, the Naval Sea Systems Command, and the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command round out active customers. The ranking by award count diverges sharply from the ranking by dollar value — the Navy and Air Force dominate by volume (collectively three awards across NIWS and AFRL), but the Army contract alone represents nearly half the total portfolio value.

Recent work demonstrates R&D-heavy positioning across defense and civilian domains. The Army SBIR Phase II contract on AI-enabled fires optimization ($1.7 million, completed August 2024) represents the largest single award. Current and near-term deliverables include a Naval Information Warfare Systems Command R&D definitive contract ($239.7 thousand, ultimate completion March 29, 2027), an Air Force Research Laboratory STTR Phase I on reinforcement learning control for satellite systems ($179.9 thousand, completed June 30, 2025), a Missile Defense Agency STTR Phase I on cognitive digital twin frameworks for autonomous target discrimination ($149.9 thousand, completed August 15, 2025), a Naval Sea Systems Command SBIR Phase I on the Space-Based Infrared System High program ($239.8 thousand, completed June 11, 2026), and a Shared Services Center definitive contract on NXGEN multidisciplinary space hardware design tools ($149.9 thousand, completed December 17, 2026). Civilian research includes a CDC Pittsburgh purchase order for public-health pharmacy software integration ($243.1 thousand, completed March 31, 2025) and an Army RDECOM STTR Phase I on optical computing networks ($196.6 thousand, completed January 15, 2025).

Activity has concentrated heavily in 2024 (six awards) following a single 2022 SBIR Phase II kick-off; 2025 and 2026 show lighter volume with one and two awards respectively. Combined potential value across all ten prime awards stands at $3.4 million, with $3.2 million already obligated. Only two awards (combined $390 thousand) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure. The portfolio concentrates in NAICS 541711 (Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences), with eight of ten awards bearing defense R&D or national defense R&D service codes under PSC classification.
