Obsidian Global, LLC

Obsidian Global, LLC, a Washington, D.C.-based small business IT services contractor, operates predominantly as a prime contractor (44% of recent awards) on federal service contracts and indefinite delivery vehicles while maintaining a substantial subcontracting footprint (56% of awards) across defense and civilian agencies. The company is a limited liability company held as a subsidiary of Hydra Capital LLC and competes across full-and-open and total small business set-aside vehicles, with total small business designation recurring across the majority of its prime-contract portfolio.

Obsidian Global's capability portfolio centers on enterprise IT solutions, cybersecurity operations, network engineering, software development, and system sustainment across defense and civilian federal missions. Representative prime work includes a $13.8 million firm fixed-price delivery order from the Air Force Sustainment Center for Purchase Request Process System (PRPS) follow-on support through July 2031 under the Small Business Enterprise Application Solutions (SBEAS) IDIQ; a $43.8 million capability sustainment order for the Enterprise Environmental Safety and Occupational Health Management Information System (EESOH-MIS) from the Air Force Civil Engineer Center, with Alaska Northstar Resources LLC and Datum Software, Inc. as subcontractors; and a $77.994 billion ceiling single-award N4 Directorate Program Support Services indefinite delivery contract from Fleet Cyber Command through June 2031 supporting naval information systems operations in Suffolk, Virginia and subordinate naval facilities, with three initial task orders totaling $32.82 million awarded in January 2026.

Customer concentration splits between volume and dollars. By award count, the Department of State Bureau of Information Resource Management leads at 20 awards (44% of the source sample), followed by Air Education and Training Command with 7 awards, Federal Emergency Management Agency with 6 awards, Fleet Cyber Command with 5 awards, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division with 4 awards. By potential value, the ranking shifts: Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center anchors 63% of combined potential value across five customer agencies, with $13.43 billion potential, followed by Naval Sea Systems Command ($10 billion), the FBI Headquarters Division ($8.64 billion), Defense Logistics Agency ($6.01 billion), and the Department of Education Office of Federal Student Aid ($350.9 million). The disparity reflects a portfolio mixing volume work under State Department and FEMA on smaller task orders against blockbuster ceiling vehicles with Air Force and Navy, particularly the $13.4 billion SBEAS IDIQ and multi-billion-dollar IDCs.

Obsidian Global holds multiple high-ceiling vehicles. The $13.4 billion Small Business Enterprise Application Solutions (SBEAS) IDIQ with the Air Force serves as the primary operating vehicle, anchoring 15 task orders worth $240.7 million in combined potential value. The company also holds a $151 billion Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ with the Missile Defense Agency (awarded December 2025, full-and-open, no set-aside), a $999,999,999,999 placeholder-ceiling OASIS+ Total Small Business Set-Aside IDIQ with GSA Federal Acquisition Service (awarded April 2025), a $20 billion Treasury Enterprise Cybersecurity Technology & Services (PROTECTS) blanket purchase agreement with the Department of Treasury (awarded January 2025, total small business), a $2.419 billion Information Technology Innovative Procurement for Strategic Sourcing (ITIPSS) IDIQ with the Federal Aviation Administration (awarded May 2024, small business), an $8.6 billion Information Technology Supplies and Support Services 2 (ITSSS-2) BPA with the FBI (awarded June 2024), a $200 million Development and Integration Vehicle for Applications (DIVA) BPA with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (awarded January 2025, small business, reduced from $415.3 million by GSA audit), and a multi-billion-dollar placeholder-ceiling POLARIS GWAC with GSA Federal Acquisition Service (awarded December 2024, total small business). Obsidian Global also participates in the 30-task-order Alliant II vehicle and the Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) with 14 task orders worth $20.58 billion in combined potential value.

Activity has grown sharply. Awards per year grew from five in 2022 to 17 in 2024 to 33 in 2025, with eight awards recorded in 2026 through mid-May. The recompete cliff shows five awards with ultimate completion dates in the next 24 months, carrying combined potential value of $139.9 million — a manageable near-term exposure relative to the vendor's multi-billion-dollar ceiling-vehicle position. SCI-reported invoiced revenue on federal service contracts grew from $7.1 million in FY2022 across 28.7 FTEs to $24.8 million in FY2024 across 140 FTEs, reflecting significant staffing expansion. SCI hourly rate posture on prime contracts ran at a median of $90.18 per hour, with the 90th percentile reaching $108.75 per hour, indicating mid-market technical labor pricing. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed 15% of contractor hours, with nine named subcontractors reported; the vendor builds delivery teams primarily in-house while leveraging subs for specialized or surge capacity work.

Obsidian Global subcontracts extensively to larger prime contractors. Named primes drawing Obsidian Global as a sub include Science Applications International Corporation on the Department of State Vanguard Bridge enterprise IT infrastructure program (multiple task orders for engineering, design, operations, and maintenance of critical enterprise IT networks); Leidos, Inc. on cybersecurity operations support services across Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Department of Homeland Security; Peraton Enterprise Solutions LLC on network operations and IT management support across federal agencies; Deloitte Consulting LLP on cybersecurity blanket purchase agreement calls for the Re-Engineered Comprehensive Integrity Review Process; BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services Inc. on enterprise IT operations and maintenance; General Dynamics Information Technology on DHS data center infrastructure operations; and Abacus Technology Corporation on base communications and IT services. The vendor also subcontracts to smaller specialists including Astrion Group LLC on cybersecurity and privacy program support, DDC IT Services LLC on mainframe support, and Deloitte & Touche LLP on unified communications and collaboration professional services. This subcontracting pattern positions Obsidian Global as a feeder to tier-one integrators on large defense and civilian IT infrastructure programs.

Top NAICS categories across the portfolio reflect IT services specialization: Computer Systems Design Services (541512) covers 43 awards, Other Computer Related Services covers 22 awards, and Custom Computer Programming Services covers 17 awards, together accounting for the majority of the vendor's federal footprint. The PSC framing confirms IT and business application development focus, with nine awards under IT and Telecom business application support services labor and seven under professional engineering and technical support services.
