Platinum Business Services, LLC

Platinum Business Services, LLC, a HUBZone-certified, service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) headquartered in Clarksville, Maryland, operates as a prime contractor delivering program management, IT services, cybersecurity, acquisition support, and technical consulting to civilian federal agencies. The company holds concurrent SBA 8(a) certification, veteran-owned business status, and self-certified small disadvantaged business designation, competing across multiple set-aside and full-and-open vehicles. Platinum is structured as a parent entity with one operating subsidiary, Alphax AI, Inc., also holding SDVOSB and veteran-owned certifications.

Platinum's customer concentration sits heavily with civilian agencies and GSA. The top five customers by potential value account for 99% of the combined award base: the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health NITAAC Office of Information Technology Acquisition leads by potential value ($60 billion across 4 awards), followed by GSA Federal Acquisition Service ($50.07 billion across 16 awards), the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command ($7.96 billion across 4 awards), the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ($51.7 million across 2 awards), and GSA Office of Governmentwide Policy ($8.8 million across 1 award). The volume rankings diverge significantly from dollars — by award count, GSA Federal Acquisition Service and the Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration anchor the portfolio with task orders on smaller vehicles, while the NIH NITAAC awards carry disproportionate potential value through large GWAC positions. Recent concrete work includes a $24.9 million delivery order for Information Assurance Division Support Services to the Office of the Inspector General under MAS, a $4.46 million Competitive 8(a) delivery order to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration for IT portfolio and funds management services under MAS, and a $3.08 million 8(a) Sole Source definitive contract to the Air Force Civil Engineer Center for acquisition support services. Platinum also delivered $2.94 million in IHS Clinical Data Mart Operations and Maintenance services under the CIO-SP3 SB GWAC through a Competitive 8(a) delivery order, and $2.55 million in Enterprise Sustainment Management System support to the Department of Energy under MAS.

Vehicle position is diversified across GSA vehicles and SBA set-asides. Platinum holds five concurrent IDIQs: a $4 billion Navy Seaport-NxG contract awarded January 2, 2025 (no set-aside, multiple award), an OASIS+ Total Small Business set-aside IDIQ awarded December 19, 2024 (multiple award, through December 18, 2029), an OASIS+ 8(a) competitive set-aside IDIQ awarded November 6, 2024 (multiple award, through November 5, 2029), an OASIS+ HUBZone set-aside IDIQ awarded September 30, 2024 (multiple award, through September 29, 2029), and an OASIS+ Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business IDIQ awarded September 30, 2024 (multiple award, through September 29, 2029). The MAS vehicle dominates task-order activity, with 21 task orders valued at $116 million combined. Platinum's recent awards split between full-and-open and set-aside designations — roughly half of named prime awards carry 8(a) Sole Source or Competitive 8(a) designations, with the remainder issued full-and-open or under HUBZone set-asides.

Activity trajectory shows a flattening profile. The awards-per-year trend runs 7 (2022), 7 (2023), 8 (2024), 2 (2025), and 1 (2026 year-to-date), indicating no growth momentum — 2024 represents a near-peak, with activity declining sharply in 2025 and 2026. Five awards (combined potential value $35.9 million) reach ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure in FY2026 and FY2027. SCI-reported invoicing of federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold shows $3.2 million in FY2022, $6.2 million in FY2023, and $7.7 million in FY2024, tracking with modest growth in the direct-delivery contract base. The SCI dataset shows roughly 13.6 FTEs delivered in FY2022 scaling to 29.7 FTEs in FY2024. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $97.37 per hour, with senior labor pricing reaching $183.74 per hour at the 90th percentile. GSA Schedule labor categories span 166 roles, priced $42.23 to $451.64 per hour, covering cloud trainers, cybersecurity assurance consultants, computer engineers, health IT program managers, and subject matter experts; all roles require a bachelor's degree with three to fifteen years of experience, and none carry security-clearance requirements.

Platinum builds its own delivery teams on federal service contracts; across SCI-reportable prime contracts, average sub-hours share is 4%, with only three named subcontractors reported across the full portfolio, indicating limited subcontract reliance. The company operates exclusively as a prime on recent federal awards — all 65 awards in the source are prime contracts or IDVCs; no sub-award activity is recorded. The capability portfolio emphasizes administrative management, program management, IT services, cybersecurity, and acquisition support. Top NAICS framing runs to Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (32 awards), Other Computer Related Services (11 awards), and Computer Systems Design Services (10 awards), with top PSC codes centered on Support—Professional (Other) (19 awards) and Support—Management (Contract/Procurement/Acquisition Support) (8 awards). The subsidiary Alphax AI, Inc., carries the same ownership and certification profile, signaling potential expansion into AI-adjacent service delivery, though award activity for the subsidiary is not separately itemized in the source.
