About the company
Tyto Athene, LLC, operating as Black Box Network Services and a subsidiary of Arlington Capital Partners IV, L.P., delivers network infrastructure maintenance, shore equipment support, telecommunications systems sustainment, and IT modernization services to defense and civilian federal agencies as a prime contractor across full-and-open competition, with no characteristic set-aside posture. The company is a for-profit limited liability corporation headquartered in Reston, Virginia, with over 60 years of cumulative experience across network infrastructure, cybersecurity, cloud computing, and communications support.
Tyto Athene's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of Defense. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 29% of recent awards, led by Department of the Navy Fleet Cyber Command (162 awards, $147.2 million combined potential value), the Department of the Navy broadly (147 awards, $16.1 million), the Department of the Air Force (108 awards, $2.3 million), the Department of the Army (100 awards, $17.4 million), and the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command (95 awards, $276 thousand). When ranked by potential value, the picture shifts toward large systems vehicles: the GSA Federal Acquisition Service dominates with 38 awards carrying $2.56 billion combined potential value, followed by the Department of the Army Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command (65 awards, $311.6 million), the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PMPEO PBUSE (48 awards, $215.3 million), Fleet Cyber Command again (162 awards, $147.2 million), and the United States Marine Corps (62 awards, $118.8 million). The tension between these two rankings reflects a portfolio mixing high-volume small-to-medium task orders on Navy platforms with substantial vehicle-based procurements via Army indefinite-delivery contracts and GSA schedules.
Tyto Athene's vehicle position spans multiple tiers. The firm holds a $40 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract (Shore Equipment Installation Maintenance Management Program III IDIQ) with Fleet Cyber Command through November 2031, awarded June 1, 2026. It seats on the OASIS+ Unrestricted multiple-award Government-wide Professional Services contract with GSA Federal Acquisition Service (no dollar ceiling specified in the source), awarded April 15, 2025, running through April 14, 2030. It also holds a $29.6 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Social Security Administration for HQ Telephone System Maintenance (awarded December 18, 2023, completing November 25, 2026) and a $12 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract with SSA for Multimedia Center maintenance and support services (awarded October 22, 2021, completing October 21, 2026). Top task-order vehicles include an Army contract (W15P7T07DH001) with 414 task orders totaling $161.4 million, the GSA Federal Supply Schedule (GS35F4295D) with 328 task orders totaling $508.5 million, Naval Computer and Telecommunications (N0024420D0002) with 107 task orders totaling $22.4 million, and Connections II with 84 task orders totaling $207.8 million.
Concrete representative work includes a $40 million single-award shore equipment installation and maintenance management program IDIQ with Fleet Cyber Command, a $7.7 million delivery order from Air Combat Command for Air Force Cyber Transport Systems sustainment under Network-Centric Solutions II (NETCENTS II), a $3.7 million delivery order from Air Combat Command for Telephone Management System sustainment under NETCENTS II (March 2022), a $5.1 million delivery order from Social Security Administration for HP Poly phones and wall mounts to equip approximately 1,500 SSA field and regional offices for Microsoft Teams Voice (February 2026), a $1.84 million delivery order from SSA for wireless headsets under the HQ Telephone System Maintenance Contract Recompete (September 2024), a $2.79 million delivery order from Naval Supply Systems Command for standard commercial monthly maintenance services in San Diego, California (September 2022), and a $620,407 definite contract from Naval Supply Systems Command for on-site technical assistance at Yokosuka, Japan (September 2023).
Activity has declined year over year: 52 awards in 2022, 61 in 2023, 51 in 2024, 35 in 2025, and only 5 in 2026 (year-to-date through early October). Three awards with combined potential value of $2.2 million face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure.
Tyto Athene operates as a prime contractor on 100% of recent awards (2,124 of 2,125 total awards in the source), with only one named sub-award. Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, Tyto Athene invoiced $10.8 million in prime contract revenue spanning FY2022 through FY2025 — $2.5 million in FY2022 (7.7 FTEs), $2.5 million in FY2023 (5.2 FTEs), $2.9 million in FY2024 (5.4 FTEs), and $2.9 million in FY2025 (3.9 FTEs). These figures represent only federal service contracts reported in the Service Contract Inventory above the $150,000 threshold and exclude goods, products, micro-purchases, classified work, and non-federal revenue; the vendor's total federal and commercial revenue is substantially larger. On its prime SCI contracts, Tyto Athene paid median government rates around $195/hr, with senior labor pricing spanning $545/hr at the 90th percentile and entry rates near $143/hr. The firm averaged 6% sub-hours share across its SCI-reportable prime contracts, with only two named subcontractors appearing in the SCI dataset, indicating the vendor builds most of its delivery teams in-house rather than leveraging a deep subcontracting network on reportable service work.
Tyto Athene is the sole named subsidiary of Arlington Capital Partners IV, L.P. in the recent award history. The parent company's portfolio of eight subsidiaries — including Qbase, Ready Support Services, Stackarmor, Mindpoint Group, and Island Information Technology Consultants — suggests Arlington Capital Partners IV operates a diversified portfolio in federal IT, cybersecurity, and government consulting, though the other subsidiaries do not appear prominently in the Tyto Athene-specific award footprint presented here.
