About the company
Prometheus Computing, LLC, a Women-Owned Small Business headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, operates as a prime contractor providing IT infrastructure, software engineering, data science, and research support services almost exclusively to the National Institute of Standards and Technology under a multi-year total small business set-aside IDIQ.
Prometheus holds a primary $45 million, five-year NIST Information Technology and Database Applications Support Services IDIQ awarded in June 2021 under total small business set-aside, alongside supplementary small business IDIQ vehicles valued at roughly $5.995 million for cyber-physical systems and smart grid research support. The company performs 100 percent of work in-house across its SCI-reportable federal service contracts, with no material subcontractor footprint. Customer concentration is extreme: NIST accounts for 347 of 360 total awards (96% by count) and $157.7 million of $158.9 million combined potential value (99% by dollars). The remaining four agencies—the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate, FDA, and HHS—represent five awards totaling $1.1 million. Prometheus competes predominantly under total small business set-aside designation on its NIST work, with a portion of its portfolio issued without set-aside protection under full-and-open delivery orders from the parent IDIQ.
Representative delivery orders illustrate Prometheus's technical scope: a $536 thousand NIST order for 3GPP sensing solutions supporting wireless communications systems (July 2026 through June 2028); a $483 thousand order for scientific data curation, discovery services, and large language model integration (October 2025 through September 2027); a $458 thousand order for digital asset management and METIS-to-MIDAS platform integration supporting semiconductor metrology research (March 2024); and a $425 thousand order for CHIPS data management system engineering and MIDAS curation (April 2026). Smaller orders span 6G wireless modeling, quantum network research, AI applications for SEM image analysis, healthcare interoperability standards development, election systems common data formats, and image analytics for neutron beam imaging. Work is performed at NIST's Gaithersburg, Maryland campus and satellite locations including Bethesda, Sylva, and Cullowhee, North Carolina.
Activity has declined moderately: 42 awards in 2023, 34 in 2024, 31 in 2025, and 25 in 2026, with only three awards recorded for 2027 to date. Twenty-nine awards (combined potential value $6.4 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure as these task orders conclude. SCI-reported invoicing across prime service contracts totaled $2.5 million over FY2022–FY2025, with peak activity in FY2024 at $1.4 million across 5.6 FTEs. Across SCI-reportable contracts, government-paid hourly rates averaged $149.68/hour at the median, with the 90th percentile reaching $160.89/hour; the 10th percentile was $71.00/hour. The SCI dataset represents a strict subset of Prometheus's federal services work and excludes goods, products, micro-purchases, and non-federal revenue.
Prometheus's teaming footprint is minimal on its prime IDIQ work; the company has occasionally engaged named subcontractors—including VSE Corporation, Enernex LLC, The Turnout LLC, Towson University, and Clearesult Energetics LLC—on specialized technical requirements for larger engagements in areas such as smart grid systems modeling, voting systems testing, and digital twin marketplace workshops. The vendor operates as a pure prime on the vast majority of task orders. One sub-award appears in the source: a December 2025 sub position under Chickasaw Health Consulting LLC on an HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Technology Policy contract for health information technology tools development and deployment support.
