Poplicus Incorporated

Poplicus Incorporated, doing business as Govini, is a commercial software-as-a-service (SaaS) data analytics company that sells platform licenses and supply chain risk intelligence capabilities to the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (95% of recent awards). The company competes full-and-open, without set-aside restrictions; a small share of its prime contract portfolio (Total Small Business set-asides on two Air Force and one Navy delivery orders) represents the only recurring set-aside category in its footprint.

Govini's core offering is Ark.ai, a cloud-based platform for data integration, analysis, and visualization designed to support defense acquisition, logistics, operational decision-making, and IT modernization. The company also delivers supply chain risk illumination tools and professional analytical services under its flagship $100 million SCRIPTS (Supply Chain Risk Illumination Professional Tools and Services) multiple-award blanket purchase agreement. Representative prime work includes a $24.45 million delivery order from Naval Air Warfare Center for SaaS platform licenses (awarded January 2025), a $37.95 million Naval Strategic Systems Programs delivery order for SaaS platform and support services (June 2024), a $30.15 million Defense Logistics Agency SaaS platform delivery order (September 2024), and a $9.6 million Army European Command data mining and licensing delivery order (September 2025). The company also holds a $49 million Office of the Secretary of Defense single-award indefinite delivery contract for data mining SaaS capabilities (August 2025), a $49 million Department of the Army single-award indefinite delivery contract for Ark platform subscriptions (August 2025), and a newly awarded $151 billion multiple-award IDIQ under the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program (December 2025).

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of Defense. The Office of the Secretary of Defense leads both volume and value with 31 awards carrying $602 million combined potential value, followed by Naval Sea Systems Command (18 awards, $92.6 million), Naval Strategic Systems Programs (5 awards, $52.7 million), Department of the Army (3 awards, $49.9 million), and Naval Air Systems Command (4 awards, $40.9 million). These top five customers account for approximately 67% of combined potential value across all awards. The Office of the Secretary of Defense dominance reflects Govini's foothold on enterprise-level data analytics infrastructure serving multiple components; Naval Sea Systems Command, Strategic Systems Programs, and Naval Air Systems Command volume reflects deep penetration in Navy acquisition and operations. Combined potential value across all 167 awards (prime and sub combined) stands at $1.25 billion; obligated dollars total $337 million (27% of combined potential value), indicating the remainder sits as ceiling capacity on indefinite delivery vehicles.

Govini's parent vehicles position it across multiple contracting channels. The $399.999 million Office of the Chief Management Officer indefinite delivery contract (referenced in older awards, now superseded by newer single-award ODCs) generated 114 task orders carrying $487.8 million potential value. The $100 million SCRIPTS multiple-award BPA (General Services Administration, awarded March 2025, extending through March 2030) supports delivery to Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies, with multiple task orders visible in recent awards. The company also holds a $500,000 Federal Supply Schedule contract (General Services Administration, multiple-award, awarded March 2023, extending through March 2028) covering software licenses, data analytics, and professional services. The $49 million Army IDC and the $49 million OSD IDC represent recent single-award indefinite vehicles anchoring fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2026 task orders. Two Army Materiel Command delivery orders sit on base IDIQ contract W9128Z25DA002 ($22.7 million combined potential value across 11 task orders).

Activity has grown sharply year over year — 21 awards in 2022 to 41 in 2025 — with a recompete cliff of 29 awards totaling $51.1 million in combined potential value completing within the next twenty-four months. This includes the Naval Air Warfare Center $24.45 million delivery order (January 2026), Naval Strategic Systems Programs $37.95 million delivery order (June 2025, already past), and multiple smaller sustainment orders across Navy and Air Force components. The vendor has secured no federal grants and carried no recipient role in the source data.

As a subcontractor, Govini delivers Ark SaaS licenses and supply chain risk support under primes including Booz Allen Hamilton (cyber-supply chain risk management support services, awards September 2025 and March 2025), BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services (Intercontinental Ballistic Missile weapon system integration and engineering services, multiple awards), HII Mission Technologies Corp (naval security integration services, September 2024), and CACI Inc. Federal (Navy digital engineering and transformation support, September 2024). Govini's sub footprint is small (9 sub awards, 5% of total) and the majority of sub work routes through Booz Allen and BAE Systems on defense acquisition modernization programs.

SCI-reported invoiced revenue from federal service contracts above $150,000 threshold totals $114 million (FY2023–FY2024), with $42.7 million in FY2023 and $71.3 million in FY2024. This represents service-contract revenue only and excludes goods, products, and the growing body of software license and SaaS subscription work that dominates Govini's award footprint. FTE trajectory across SCI-reportable contracts shows minimal staffing — 0.0 FTEs in FY2023, 0.8 FTEs in FY2024 — consistent with a platform licensing and data-analytics services model that does not require large dedicated labor pools for execution. Sub-hours share on prime SCI contracts stands at 0%, indicating Govini delivers its service offerings through direct company resources with no significant subcontractor labor engagement on reported service contracts.

Govini's federal footprint is dominated by SaaS platform subscription and licensing delivery orders, with over 90% of its prime awards concentrated in support-professional services (111 awards) and IT/SaaS platforms (19 awards to 28 awards depending on coding granularity). The company has established itself as a specialized vendor for Department of Defense enterprise-level analytics and decision-science infrastructure, competing full-and-open across multiple vehicle types and maintaining no meaningful presence outside the defense sector apart from a single NIST semiconductor industry data portal contract ($1.5 million small business set-aside, July 2024).
