Orbis Sibro Inc.

Orbis Sibro Inc., doing business as Orbis, a veteran-owned small business based in Charleston, South Carolina, operates as a prime contractor (91% of recent awards) delivering naval shipyard touch labor, engineering and technical services, and systems engineering support to the Department of Defense, with a $21.35 billion combined potential value across 265 awards over recent years. Orbis competes across multiple contract vehicles without predominant set-aside restriction, though it holds several total small business IDIQs and participates in partial small business set-asides; the vendor's core customer concentration sits with the Navy, anchoring 58% of award count and 99% of potential value.

Naval Sea Systems Command dominates the customer footprint, accounting for 145 awards valued at $12.46 billion combined potential value, concentrated in two streams: touch labor delivery orders at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine and multi-year professional services delivery orders under Seaport Next Generation. Representative prime work includes a $7.6 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order for abrasive blaster touch labor at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (September 2025, ultimate completion February 2026), a $45.6 million Seaport-NXG delivery order for professional support services to NAVSEA SEA10 and SEA00 (awarded May 2023, runs through May 2028), and a $34.1 million Seaport-NXG delivery order for scientific, engineering, technical, and analytical support to naval shipyards and organizational effectiveness (awarded May 2023, completion May 2028). Naval Air Systems Command contributes $6.12 billion in combined potential value through a $249.7 million NAVAIR RAPID MAC indefinite delivery contract (total small business set-aside, awarded March 2022, completion March 2032) for engineering design and systems engineering services. The Air Force Materiel Command delivered a $980 million Automatic Test Systems Acquisition-I multiple-award IDIQ (awarded September 2025, completion September 2035) supporting automatic test systems lifecycle support across Air Force programs globally. The Missile Defense Agency awarded Orbis a $151 billion Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ on December 29, 2025, with a ceiling extending through December 28, 2035, covering research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and modernization services across air, missile, space, and cyber defense domains.

Orbis holds six active parent vehicles placing work under multiple contract regimes. The Production Support for Portsmouth Naval Shipyard IDIQ ($242.99 million ceiling, awarded March 2025, completion March 2030) has generated 46 task orders valued at $82.3 million, primarily for non-nuclear production touch labor including electricians, welders, abrasive blasters, pipefitters, and weighthandlers. SeaPort-e (Navy engineering support multiple-award IDIQ) carries 28 task orders at $227.5 million combined value. Seaport Next Generation (Navy professional services IDIQ) spans 14 task orders at $186.5 million. Orbis holds a $404 million GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract (awarded February 2022, completion February 2027) offering 95 labor categories ranging from $38.73/hr (AI Intern) to $374.47/hr (Principal Consultant), spanning administrative, technical, engineering, and consulting roles with no security-cleared positions. Two OASIS+ multiple-award IDIQs (both awarded December 2024, completion December 2029) — one total small business set-aside and one unrestricted — carry placeholder ceiling values and provide governmentwide access to professional services across management, technical, engineering, research, and logistics domains. The vendor also holds a $5 million Defense Logistics Agency Aviation blanket purchase agreement (awarded November 2022, completion March 2027).

Service Contract Inventory data shows SCI-reportable invoiced revenue of $48.7 million across FY2022–FY2024 (prime records only), growing from $8.6 million across 47.8 FTEs in FY2022 to $27 million across 183 FTEs in FY2024 — a trajectory reflecting ramping labor delivery on Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and Seaport-NXG contracts. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable work run a median of $74.65/hr, with the 10th percentile at $65.02/hr and the 90th percentile at $98.66/hr, positioning Orbis in the mid-range labor-cost tier. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed 12% of contractor hours; the vendor named 17 total subcontractors including Scientific Research Corporation, Serco Inc., Booz Allen Hamilton, Fluor Marine Propulsion, and Mantech entities on engineering support, program management, and ship systems work. Orbis operates predominantly as a self-performing prime — 91% of awards are prime contracts and IDVs — with subcontracting used selectively for specialized ship design, engineering, and integration services rather than as a feeder model.

Activity peaked in 2022 with 29 awards, then contracted to 7 awards in 2023 and 2024 before rebounding to 19 awards in 2025 and 4 awards in the first quarter of 2026; this volatility reflects the lumpiness of multiple-award IDIQ wins and task-order velocity rather than underlying customer concentration loss. Eleven awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $160.7 million and representing near-term recompete exposure across touch labor and engineering-services delivery orders. The vendor's award footprint skews heavily toward NAICS 336611 (Shipbuilding and Repair, 74 awards) and NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services, 109 awards), with PSC concentration in Non-Nuclear Ship Repair (East and West) and Professional Support services, underscoring the Navy's dominance as customer and the vendor's specialization in naval infrastructure and ship-systems modernization.
