Vantor Services Inc.

Vantor Services Inc., operating as Radiantblue Technologies, a Colorado Springs–based subsidiary of Maxar Mission Solutions Holdings Inc., delivers specialized research and development, software engineering, and electronic equipment sustainment services to the Department of Defense and federal law enforcement as a prime contractor (94% of recent awards) competing predominantly under full-and-open procurement without set-aside designation, though maintains eligibility for total small business set-asides on select purchases.

Radiantblue's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward defense and intelligence. The top five customers by award count account for 75% of awards: the Department of the Army Space and Missile Defense Command (22 awards, $33.9 million combined potential value) anchors the active portfolio, followed by the Department of Justice US Marshals Service Investigative Operations Division (5 awards, $313 thousand), the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command (5 awards, $230 thousand), the FBI Headquarters Division (2 awards, $2.1 million), and the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (2 awards, $3 thousand). However, potential value rankings shift dramatically when the Office of the Secretary of Defense's $249 million Basic Ordering Agreement for data readiness and artificial intelligence development services is included — that single vehicle represents 72% of combined potential value across all awards. The Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command contributes an additional $37 million through a Small Business Innovation Research contract, and the GSA Federal Acquisition Service holds a $10 million vehicle. This concentration creates substantial recompete exposure: five awards with combined potential value of $43.2 million reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months.

Radiantblue operates from two prime contract vehicles: a single-award $15 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with Army Space and Missile Defense Command (designated for specialized services including electronic equipment sustainment, training, electronic warfare research and development, and software support), from which seven delivery orders totaling approximately $10.1 million have been issued, and the $249 million multiple-award Joint Artificial Intelligence Center Basic Ordering Agreement with the Office of the Secretary of Defense for data science, data engineering, data architecture, and synthetic data generation. Recent prime awards include a $1.93 million firm-fixed-price delivery order from the Army Space and Missile Defense Command for sustainment and training of electronic equipment (completing September 2027), a $1.35 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order from the Program Executive Office for Enterprise Information Systems for research, development, testing, and evaluation of electronic warfare equipment (completing January 2027), and a $20,546 total small business set-aside purchase order from the US Marshals Service for integrated geospatial investigative training focused on fugitive apprehension (completing September 2026). Radiantblue also holds ancillary positions on GSA's One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services GWAC, the Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction R&D vehicle, SeaPort-e, and the PS-ISR Analytic Software contract vehicle. On the subcontractor side, Radiantblue provides geospatial intelligence software development and support services to Applied Research Associates for Army Research Laboratory and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency programs, and provides general task-order personnel, materials, and management support under the same prime relationship.

The capability portfolio clusters around defense modernization — engineering services (15 awards), custom computer programming (13 awards), research and development in physical and engineering sciences (6 awards), and computer systems design (5 awards). Procurement Service codes indicate concentration in defense R&D basic research (9 awards), professional engineering and technical support (8 awards), maintenance and repair of communications and detection equipment (4 awards), and applied research services (3 awards). Work is performed primarily in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with subordinate performance locations in Quantico, Virginia (for FBI rover and astro-engineering services) and across Army and Navy commands nationwide. Recent activity shows decline from five awards in 2022 to two in 2026, though the multi-year delivery orders under the SMDC IDIQ and the $249 million OSD BOA sustain significant pipeline value despite lower annual award count.
