About Potomacwave, Inc.

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Potomacwave, Inc., doing business as Potomacwave Consulting Inc., is a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, that delivers data analytics, management consulting, program support, and IT solutions to federal agencies as a prime contractor across civilian and defense portfolios. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime (100% of awards) and competes in both full-and-open and WOSB set-aside categories, with WOSB designations appearing on roughly one-third of recent awards; the bulk of work flows through unrestricted federal vehicles.

Potomacwave's customer base spans 69 federal agencies, with concentration in civilian operations. The top customer by both award count and potential value is the Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Coast Guard, accounting for 54 awards worth $11.24 billion combined potential value. Federal Emergency Management Agency follows with 33 awards valued at $196.7 million. GSA Federal Acquisition Service ranks third with 9 awards valued at $405.9 million. These top five customers account for 48% of awards by count and 66% of combined potential value. The Coast Guard dominance is platform-driven: 54 awards include vehicle seats on the Multiple Award Schedule, OASIS+ variants, and the new SHIELD IDIQ rather than a concentration of discrete task orders, so dollar concentration reflects vehicle ceilings and availability rather than volume of execution.

Potomacwave operates across multiple parent vehicles. The Multiple Award Schedule carries the largest footprint with 169 task orders worth $1.69 billion combined potential value. The Professional Services Schedule hosts 65 task orders valued at $142 million. OASIS+ Small Business accounts for 32 task orders worth $293.4 million. The vendor holds seats on three OASIS+ IDIQs — the Women-Owned Small Business, Total Small Business, and Unrestricted variants — each carrying a $999,999,999,999 placeholder ceiling expiring between December 2029 and June 2030. Potomacwave also holds the newly awarded SHIELD IDIQ with the Missile Defense Agency (ceiling $151 billion, through December 2035) and owns single-award BPAs with FEMA ($21.4 million through April 2027), the Department of Commerce ($1.085 million through February 2028), and the U.S. Coast Guard ($2.9 million through September 2026).

Potomacwave's named work centers on federal procurement data solutions and program support. Representative prime contracts include a $2.9 million WOSB Sole Source definitive contract with the Department of State's Bureau of Administration (November 2023) to deliver a comprehensive software suite for FPDS-NG reporting automation and contractor responsibility assessments; a $10.084 million delivery order from the Defense Health Agency (August 2024, Total Small Business set-aside) for acquisition product support and project management services to the Enterprise IT Project Management Office under the Omnibus IV IDIQ; a $4.576 million FEMA BPA call (September 2024, Option Period 2) for strategy, policy, assessment, and analysis support to the Office of Policy and Analysis; and a $3.079 million Department of Veterans Affairs delivery order (June 2025) for FPDS-NG data validation and quality improvement services. A $1.0 million labor-hour contract with the Department of State's Bureau of Diplomatic Security (January 2025) provides contract performance support and analytics across multiple federal agencies.

SCI-reported invoicing totaled $104.4 million across FY2022–FY2024 (prime contracts only), with $37.2 million in FY2022, $34.4 million in FY2023, and $32.8 million in FY2024, showing a declining trend. FTE trajectory contracted from 127 in FY2022 to 94.3 in FY2024 across SCI-captured contracts. Government-paid hourly rates on federal services contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $1.96/hr to a 90th percentile of $358.48/hr, with a median of $111.64/hr, reflecting a mix of entry-level, mid-level, and senior advisory labor. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, an average 16% of contractor hours were performed by subcontractors, with 62 named subs reported across the portfolio, indicating Potomacwave typically builds most capability in-house and engages subs selectively for specialized or overflow capacity.

GSA Schedule labor offerings span 33 categories priced from $60.00/hr (Technology Analyst, bachelor's, no experience, no clearance) through $457.81/hr (Program Director, bachelor's, 12 years experience, no clearance). The portfolio emphasizes mid-level consultancy and management roles ($90–$170/hr range) aligned with Potomacwave's program-support and analytics positioning; no cleared labor is offered. Potomacwave competes without set-aside protection on the unrestricted OASIS+ Unrestricted and the SHIELD IDIQ but maintains dedicated WOSB seats on OASIS+ WOSB and OASIS+ Total Small Business. Recent award activity has flattened after a peak in 2023–2024 (18 awards in both years), dropping to 9 in 2025 and 1 in 2026 year-to-date; thirteen awards valued at $106 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure and opportunity for competitors to unseat the vendor on FEMA, VA, and Coast Guard task orders.
