QM Technologies Inc.

QM Technologies Inc., a Salt Lake City-based small business, supplies specialized quantum computing hardware and test equipment to federal research and defense agencies as a prime contractor on NIST purchase orders (29% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to prime systems integrators serving Department of Defense and research-facility customers (71% of recent awards). The vendor competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides on its NIST prime work and full-and-open on its DoD and research-institute sub work.

QM Technologies' capability portfolio centers on superconducting qubit control systems, arbitrary waveform generators, microwave signal generators, and low-noise RF pulse generators for quantum research and measurement applications. Recent prime work with NIST includes a $69,363 superconducting qubit control system with arbitrary waveform generator functionality (awarded September 18, 2026, delivering to Claymont, Delaware, final delivery November 27, 2026), a $41,230 4-channel microwave signal generator meeting Nanoscale Device Characterization Division specifications (September 17, 2026, performance to Israel, delivery December 18, 2026), a $127,893 pair of integrated quantum control and measurement electronic systems featuring 24 DC voltage outputs, 8 arbitrary waveform outputs, and 18 GHz microwave control capability (July 31, 2025, delivered to NIST Gaithersburg), and a $58,302 arbitrary waveform generator under Total Small Business set-aside (September 12, 2024).

The top five federal customers account for 94% of recent awards. The National Institute of Standards and Technology dominates the prime footprint with 5 awards valued at $342 thousand combined, while Department of Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command, Department of Navy Secretary of the Navy Chief Naval Operations, Department of Air Force Air Education and Training Command, and Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime each place task orders against QM as a subcontractor. Although NIST represents 100% of the combined potential value in the source's capture window, the obligated-dollar total ($2.4 million) substantially exceeds the potential value ($342 thousand), signaling that the source's snapshot is biased toward recent, smaller awards and that QM's sub-award work carries significant invoiced revenue not visible in ceiling values.

In its subcontractor role, QM delivers quantum measurement and control equipment to Marvin Engineering Co, Inc. on Department of Defense line-funded test equipment task orders (October 3, 2025, and June 5, 2025), to Valkyrie Enterprises and HX5 LLC on MIT Lincoln Laboratory research and development test equipment sub-awards (February 7, 2024, through October 2, 2024), and to ManTech for Lincoln Laboratory work (December 22, 2023). The vendor also acts as a sub-recipient under HRL Laboratories grant awards, supplying QCage equipment, enhanced system support, spare parts, and modular experimental test setups (January 16, 2025, through August 20, 2025). Activity has grown from 2 awards in 2023 to 6 in both 2024 and 2025, with two awards (combined potential value $111 thousand) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months.
