Redhawk It Solutions, LLC

Redhawk IT Solutions, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) headquartered in Woodbridge, Virginia, delivers enterprise software licensing, maintenance, and IT services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) through the Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement V (SEWP V) government-wide acquisition contract and direct indefinite delivery contracts. The firm holds SBA certifications as both a service-disabled veteran-owned business and veteran-owned small business (VOSB), valid through September 15, 2027, and operates as a small disadvantaged business under NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services) and related software merchant codes.

Redhawk's federal work centers on procuring, licensing, and maintaining commercial software for civilian and defense agencies—Adobe Creative Cloud and Enterprise License Agreements, Atlassian products (Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket), Informatica data integration platforms, VMware virtualization software, DigiCert SSL certificates, Cellebrite digital forensics tools, Autodesk design suites, Tableau analytics, GitLab development platforms, and dozens of other enterprise applications. Representative recent work includes a $80.718 billion indefinite delivery contract with the Department of Homeland Security Office of the Chief Information Officer (awarded December 2025, completion December 2028) for an Adobe Enterprise License Agreement covering all DHS components and bureaus; a $14.1 million delivery order from the VA Technology Acquisition Center for Adobe Creative Cloud licensing (February 2026, completion January 2029); a $13.48 million delivery order from the VA for Performance Logic environment-of-care licenses (January 2026, completion December 2028); and a $7.1 million delivery order from the Department of Transportation for an Adobe Enterprise Technology Licensing Agreement (November 2025, completion October 2028). Work is overwhelmingly procured through delivery orders, not large prime contracts; the median delivery order carries modest value, with the contractor functioning as a software vendor aggregator and licensing reseller across the federal government.

Customer concentration is moderate but skewed toward the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA Technology Acquisition Center leads with 475 awards valued at $209.5 million (covering direct software licensing and renewal orders to VA units nationwide); VA Headquarters adds 217 awards ($21.8 million); together these account for about 18% of recent awards by count. The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command ranks second by dollars ($678.5 million across 111 awards) but third by volume. Naval Sea Systems Command contributes 187 awards ($5.8 million). Across 412 distinct customer agencies, the top five customers represent only 28% of all awards by count but drive outsized dollar concentration due to large enterprise licensing deals with Navy and DoD IT operations centers. SCI-reported service contract invoicing ran $10.8 million in FY2022, $14.7 million in FY2023, and $546 thousand in FY2024 (incomplete year in source), with no FTE data captured—this represents a small slice of total federal services revenue, omitting goods purchases and delivery-order software licensing that dominates Redhawk's portfolio.

Redhawk's market position rests on a single strategic platform: the Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement V (SEWP V) GWAC administered by NASA. The vendor holds 2,955 SEWP V task orders valued at $595.7 million in combined potential value—representing 78% of all prime awards in the source data. This dominance enables rapid delivery order issuance across the civilian and defense sectors without individual competition. Secondary vehicles include an 81-task-order position on IDC AG3144C150030 ($2.3 million combined value) and a 39-task-order position on IDC N6523615D3007 ($6.4 million), along with a 17-task-order slot on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule. The $80.7 billion Adobe IDC with DHS represents a single large prime contract outside SEWP V, reserved for total small business (not SDVOSB alone), structured as an indefinite delivery vehicle running through December 2028.

Activity has peaked and plateaued. Awards per year grew from 310 in 2022 to 456 in 2024, then declined to 366 in 2025 and 124 in 2026 (incomplete calendar year); combined potential value across all 3,769 awards totals $42.44 billion, with only $515.4 million obligated (1% of ceiling)—typical for software licensing IDCs where vendors maintain high ceilings and agencies issue delivery orders against them incrementally. Within the next twenty-four months, 318 awards carrying $170.6 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion, creating significant recompete exposure and opportunity for competitors to displace Redhawk on renewals.

Redhawk operates as a software licensing pass-through with minimal direct labor. The SCI dataset shows zero FTE reporting across all three fiscal years (FY2022–FY2024), indicating invoiced revenue reflects license fees and maintenance billings rather than consulting labor; this posture is consistent with Redhawk's role as an aggregator of vendor software products rather than a services integrator. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, the average sub-hours share was 0%, confirming that Redhawk delivers almost exclusively through its own direct procurement relationships with software vendors rather than through subcontractors. Hourly rates derived from SCI invoicing show extreme outlier variance (10th percentile $1,691.99/hr, median $29,500.39/hr, 90th percentile $183,011.43/hr), reflecting the mix of fixed-price software licensing orders and occasional high-value consulting or implementation support embedded in larger contracts.

Redhawk subcontracts selectively. Three sub-awards appear in the source: a role on a General Dynamics task order (April 2026) for NAWCAD ship and air C5ISR systems support; a sub to Honeywell for National Security Campus management and software (February 2026); and a sub to Booz Allen Hamilton for Department of Labor core financial management system operations and maintenance (January 2026), where Redhawk is noted as cVe-certified SDVOSB. Sub work is rare and driven by larger integrators' need for software licensing and procurement expertise, not Redhawk's primary posture.

Redhawk's competitive advantage depends entirely on its seat on SEWP V and its status as a small business—set-asides (SDVOSB, VOSB, total small business) account for the overwhelming majority of its awards. The firm competes predominantly under set-asides, leveraging its SDVOSB certification to win delivery orders reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned firms. Full-and-open awards exist but are secondary. The $80.7 billion DHS Adobe contract, the single largest vehicle, is reserved for total small business—not full-and-open competition. Recompete cliff exposure ($170.6 million in the next 24 months) signals that Redhawk's position remains defensible on renewals only if it continues to qualify for SDVOSB/VOSB set-asides and maintains vendor relationships (especially Adobe) that agencies rely on through the SEWP V pipeline. Revenue concentration on a handful of software vendors (Adobe, Informatica, VMware, Atlassian, Cellebrite) and customer agencies (VA, Navy) creates both concentration risk and switching cost—agencies locked into multi-year enterprise licensing agreements with Redhawk as the delivery vehicle will likely renew, but loss of SDVOSB status or displacement from SEWP V would eliminate the firm's primary competitive pathway.
