One Nation Innovation

One Nation Innovation, a minority-owned, veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned nonprofit based in Columbia, South Carolina, operates exclusively as a prime contractor under Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) with defense agencies, holding an Asian-Pacific American ownership designation and competing 100% in full-and-open procurement (no set-asides). The vendor holds 57 prime awards valued at $617.2 million combined potential value with $394.2 million obligated as of mid-2026, with activity concentrating on prototype development and innovative solutions delivery outside the Federal Acquisition Regulation framework.

One Nation Innovation's capability portfolio centers on defense innovation prototyping across four primary domains: workforce productivity and operational efficiency systems; environmental management and sustainment infrastructure; advanced sensing, radar, and unmanned systems (counter-UAS, C-UAS test and evaluation, autonomous landing zones, unmanned underwater vehicles, small unmanned aerial systems); and digital platforms including data science, machine learning, and enterprise software enablement (SAP systems, FedRAMP certification support, acquisition digital platforms). Representative work includes a $83 million Army Forces Command OTA for environmental management prototyping awarded September 2022 with completion through June 2026; a $36.2 million US Pacific Fleet Forces OTA for all-domain converged infrastructure and innovation ecosystems awarded June 2026 with 10X National Security Inc. as the primary consortia member; a $20.9 million Office of the Secretary of Defense OTA for SOLIC SAP Enabler prototyping awarded December 2025; an $18.2 million Naval Supply Systems Command OTA for OP NAVY TENCAP SAP Enablers awarded February 2026; and a $7.65 million Naval Air Warfare Center OTA for C-UAS test and evaluation awarded April 2026.

Customer concentration sits heavily with the Department of Defense and its components. The Office of the Secretary of Defense dominates both volume and dollars (16 awards, $262.4 million combined potential value), followed by Army Forces Command (3 awards, $94.2 million), Office of Naval Research and Navy-wide commands ($58 million across two awards), and the Department of the Air Force ($36.9 million across three awards). The top five customers account for 79% of combined potential value. A single award to US Pacific Fleet Forces anchors $36.2 million and represents One Nation Innovation's largest single procurement. Award concentration reflects OTA authority as the exclusive contracting vehicle — 49 of 57 awards (86%) are coded to National Defense R&D Services under experimental development PSC category, with the remainder spread across IT/telecom software, facilities operations, and general science R&D.

The vendor holds 24 named federal customer agencies. Beyond OSD and Army/Navy/Air Force headquarters, recent awardees include US Special Operations Command ($9.4 million SOCOM CHAOS Prototype OTA, March 2026), Army Research Development and Engineering Command (multiple awards for counter-UAS radar, multi-band radar testbed, and munitions energetics totaling $14 million), Defense Innovation Unit (two certificate and FedRAMP efforts, $1.1 million combined), Air Force Research Laboratory (ADO-CE autonomous landing zone prototype, $344 thousand), and Space and Missile Systems Center (Western Range Communication Infrastructure, $3.1 million). Naval commands include Naval Supply Systems Command, Naval Sea Systems Command, Naval Information Warfare Systems Command, and Naval Air Systems Command.

One Nation Innovation holds 24 named Other Transaction IDVs with combined ceiling values exceeding $375 million, all awarded September 2025 or later. These IDVs represent standing contract vehicles from which task orders are expected to flow. Named vehicles include a $75.8 million FLEX IDV from Office of the Secretary of Defense (September 2025), a $50.76 million ONR IE IDV from Office of Naval Research (September 2025), a $32.8 million Air Force FV Phase II IDV (September 2025), an $11.2 million Army Forces Command SVIII ABC JIOP prototype effort IDV for audiovisual/videoconferencing (August 2025), an $8.78 million Department of Defense Headquarters workforce productivity innovation IDV (June 2025), a $8.04 million Army Research Development and Engineering Command C-UAS radar technologies development IDV (September 2025), and a $7.25 million Office of Naval Research LRUAVS IDV (September 2025). The portfolio also includes smaller IDVs for munitions energetics technology center development ($3.5 million), innovation enabler initiatives ($6.9 million), Western Range communication infrastructure ($1.6 million), and various Air Force initiatives (A-10 Warthog capabilities $3.5 million, Green Flag support $54 thousand, Special Access Programs enabler $2.4 million).

Activity accelerated sharply in 2025 and 2026. The vendor recorded one award in 2022 (the Army environmental management prototype), no awards in 2023 or 2024, then 25 awards in 2025 and 31 awards in 2026 through mid-June — a trajectory indicative of recent market entry at scale or a shift in buyer acquisition posture toward OTA vehicles. Combined potential value obligated stands at 64% of the total ceiling ($394.2 million of $617.2 million). The recompete cliff is material: 33 awards with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $291.9 million and face recompete exposure beginning late 2026.

One Nation Innovation holds no subcontractor relationships in the source data — all 57 awards list the vendor as prime. However, two awards name other vendors as primary consortia members: Technalink Inc., a women-owned small business, holds primary award status on a $5.65 million Special Operations & Low Intensity Conflict joint rapid fielding activity OTA (March 2026) with One Nation Innovation as a named partner; Coaspire LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business, holds primary award status on an $18.1 million LCCM requirement OTA (February 2026) with One Nation Innovation as a sub-awardee. Ouverture Consulting Services LLC serves as the primary consortia member on the Western Range Communication Infrastructure Modernization Initiative ($3.1 million, September 2025), and 10X National Security Inc. serves as primary consortia on the All Domain Converged Infrastructure and Innovation Ecosystem OTA with US Pacific Fleet Forces ($36.2 million, June 2026).

The vendor's posture is exclusively OTA-based. All contracts sit outside FAR authority and operate under defense prototype and innovation mandate. No GSA Schedules, GWACs, BPAs, or traditional IDIQs appear in the source. This vehicle profile constrains the vendor to customers with OTA authority (defense and intelligence) and limits portability to civilian agencies. The concentration in OSD, Army, Navy, and Air Force reflects OTA authority distribution; performance locations cluster in Columbia, South Carolina (primary office site for many efforts), Austin, Texas, Springfield, Virginia, and scattered support locations (Tampa, Lompoc, Crane, Vienna, Prince Frederick, Centerbrook, West McLean, Washington) aligned to specific customer facilities.
