About the company
Optimum Technologies LLC, a Sterling, Virginia-based limited liability company, manufactures space and imaging payload components for the Space Force and NASA as a prime contractor on small-business-set-aside development contracts and as a subcontractor on NASA exploration programs under Northrop Grumman. The vendor operates predominantly as a subcontractor (60% of recent awards) but has secured one firm-fixed-price prime contract and carries space exploration and tactical satellite communications work across three federal agencies.
The vendor's customer base is defense and space-focused. The Department of the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center anchors the prime footprint with a $12.4 million CARACAL Imaging Payload Optech SBIR III definitive contract awarded October 28, 2024, for optical imaging systems development with place of performance in Albuquerque, New Mexico and ultimate completion June 29, 2027. NASA Johnson Space Center represents two sub awards under Northrop Grumman, including NEXTSTEP International Space Station exploration module development (awarded September 4, 2025, and May 1, 2026), and the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory carries a small $50 thousand award. The two customer rankings are nearly identical — all five awards concentrate within the Air Force and NASA — and dollar concentration is sharp: the CARACAL contract represents 99.6% of combined potential value across all five awards.
Activity is sparse and flat. The vendor has recorded one award per year across 2020, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026, with five total awards carrying combined potential value of $12.4 million against combined obligations of $17.9 million. One award — the CARACAL contract — completes inside the next twenty-four months and faces recompete. Work is categorized as applied research and exploratory development in physical and engineering sciences (NAICS 541712 and variants). Under Northrop Grumman, Optimum Technologies supports protected tactical satellite communications on-orbit operations and NEXTSTEP habitation-module technology development for deep-space exploration.
