About Practical Solutions, Inc.
Practical Solutions, Inc., a minority-owned, SBA-certified 8(a) small disadvantaged business headquartered in Washington, D.C., delivers enterprise IT services, cloud computing, data engineering, and Microsoft software support to federal agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards), operating across three major IDVs worth $55.65 billion in combined potential value.
The company's customer base is concentrated in two distinct patterns. By award count, the Small Business Administration Office of the Chief Information Officer anchors the portfolio with nineteen awards ($8 million combined potential value), followed by the Election Assistance Commission (eleven awards, $5.8 million) and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (eight awards, $8.5 million). By dollar value, however, three massive vehicles dominate: the GSA Federal Acquisition Service's 8(a) STARS III GWAC ($50.01 billion), the Naval Sea Systems Command's SEAPORT-NXG program ($4 billion), and the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command's enterprise support and engineering contract for Microsoft products ($1.49 billion). The Treasury's Internal Revenue Service contributes $113.1 million across four awards. Practical Solutions sits on 8(a) STARS III as a competitive 8(a) awardee since February 2022 (ultimate completion July 2026) and holds a single-award total small business set-aside indefinite delivery contract with NIWC valued at $1.494 billion through June 2030 for Microsoft product engineering, technical support, workshops, and cloud-strategy development. The vendor also participates in SEAPORT-NXG as a multiple-award vehicle holder and places task orders against the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (15 task orders, $117.7 million) and several agency-specific BPAs, including a National Telecommunications and Information Administration blanket purchase agreement (8 task orders, $8.8 million). Recent concrete work includes a $3.038 million enterprise architecture support definitive contract with the United States Mint (awarded September 2023, ultimate completion October 2026), a $5.06 million National Telecommunications and Information Administration BPA call for professional services (awarded September 2023), a $1.22 million GSA MAS data engineer delivery order (awarded May 2022), and multiple Microsoft support and cloud services orders through the Election Assistance Commission and Merit Systems Protection Board running through 2028–2030.
Award volume has been episodic: seven awards in 2022, seven in 2023, three in 2024, five in 2025, and one in the first quarter of 2026. Only four awards (combined potential value $5.7 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting limited recompete exposure in the near term. However, the company's two largest vehicles—the NIWC Microsoft contract ($1.494 billion) and SEAPORT-NXG ($4 billion)—both extend through 2029–2030, anchoring a multi-year delivery pipeline.
On Service Contract Inventory reporting (federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold), Practical Solutions invoiced $11.7 million in SCI-reportable revenue across FY2022–FY2024 with no subcontractor labor: $1.6 million in FY2022 (6.3 FTEs), $3.2 million in FY2023 (9.9 FTEs), and $6.9 million in FY2024 (2.7 FTEs). The reported FTE count reflects contract-level staffing on individual SCI-reportable awards and does not represent total company headcount. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable work ranged from a 10th-percentile floor of $122.53/hr to a 90th-percentile ceiling of $130.06/hr, with a median of $127.53/hr, reflecting mid-level IT professional billing. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime on SCI-recorded contracts, with zero sub-hours reported, and carries no named subcontractors in the source data. Its GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 84 categories from $38.26/hr (Technical Analyst I, bachelor's, entry-level) to $484.75/hr (Senior IAM SME, master's, 20+ years experience), covering systems engineering, project management, application architecture, and specialized IT roles, none requiring security clearance.
Practical Solutions competes predominantly through full-and-open competition on large government-wide vehicles (STARS III, SEAPORT-NXG, Multiple Award Schedule) and maintains 8(a) Sole Source and Competitive 8(a) set-aside designations across smaller task orders and agency-specific awards. The company delivers across 29 distinct customer agencies, with primary NAICS concentration in Computer Systems Design Services (42 awards) and secondary depth in Software Publishers (11 awards), complemented by PSC strength in Support Professional—Engineering/Technical (22 awards) and Information Technology Software (9 awards).
