About the company
Rise8 Inc., a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) and veteran-owned small business (VOSB) based in Tampa, Florida, delivers software development, DevSecOps, and digital transformation services to the Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor on 72% of recent awards and as a subcontractor to larger defense primes on 28% of work. The Subchapter S corporation competes predominantly full-and-open (no set-aside designations on the majority of prime awards) and is SBA-certified SDVOSB and VOSB through February 10, 2028.
Rise8's customer footprint is heavily weighted to defense and VA accounts. The top five customer agencies account for 90% of recent awards, with the Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center anchoring the portfolio at eight awards and $2.46 billion combined potential value—dominated by the $2.44 billion VA Secure, Performant, Reliable, and User-Centered Experiences (SPRUCE) IDIQ awarded October 1, 2024, which is reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory follows at 15 awards and $532.2 million potential value, the Space and Missile Systems Center at 14 awards and $70.2 million, the Department of the Air Force at five awards and $962.4 million, and Air Force Space Command at three awards and $17.4 million. The concentration by dollars—VA dominates at $2.46 billion, while Air Force Materiel Command contributes the next-largest segment at $532.2 million—reflects Rise8's strategic positioning on high-value civilian VA work alongside defense R&D and software delivery contracts.
Rise8 holds four named parent vehicles. The AFWERX Software Delivery Organization SBIR Phase III IDIQ with the Air Force Research Laboratory, awarded May 30, 2023, carries a $499 million ceiling running through June 6, 2028, and has generated 11 task orders worth $101.3 million combined potential value across Space and Missile Systems Center, Air Force Space Command, Cyber Command, and Air Force components—including a $42.2 million delivery order for Enterprise Management and Control Software Development (April 2, 2025, completing September 28, 2027) and a $9.9 million Combat Enhancement Team capacity order (July 30, 2024, completing April 29, 2026). The VA SPRUCE IDIQ ($2.44 billion, multiple-award, October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2029) has generated two task orders totaling $5.6 million in combined potential value: a $5.55 million agile product design delivery order (September 23, 2025, completing March 23, 2027) and an earlier instrument. The Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ from the Missile Defense Agency (awarded December 29, 2025, $151 billion ceiling through December 28, 2035) represents a recent addition; Rise8 holds a position on this multi-domain defense system contract encompassing research, development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and cybersecurity across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threat domains, with an initial $500 delivery order awarded on the same date. Rise8 also maintains a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (Federal Acquisition Service, April 13, 2022 through April 12, 2027, $475,000 ceiling) offering 40 IT professional-services labor categories spanning Associate Product Manager II through Principal Cybersecurity Engineer at rates from $112.01 to $432.39 per hour, with no security-cleared positions offered.
Concrete representative work includes a $19.3 million firm-fixed-price definitive contract with Air Force Research Laboratory (June 23, 2025, completing June 22, 2027) for continued development and operational deployment of secure, scalable CI/CD software solutions across unclassified and classified cloud and hybrid environments at Tampa; a $9.461 million definitive contract with VA for the VA.GOV Watchtower SBIR Phase III (September 19, 2024, completing June 18, 2027); an $8.938 million Cyber Command delivery order for co-creating, adopting, and scaling software solutions (June 17, 2024, completing June 16, 2027); multiple SBIR Phase II and Phase III awards from Air Force Research Laboratory for digital spaceport development ($1.862 million, August 15, 2024), electro-optical sensor scheduling software modernization ($1.799 million, July 22, 2024), and regional satellite command center tracking software ($2.908 million, October 4, 2023); and a $6.515 million delivery order with Air Force Space Command for DCG-T CET support under the AFWERX Software Delivery Organization IDIQ (April 1, 2026, completing March 31, 2027). Activity trajectory shows growth from three awards in 2022 to a peak of 14 in 2024, declining to ten in 2025 with one year-to-date award in 2026; eight awards (combined potential value $119.1 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, signaling recompete exposure across the AFRL SBIR Phase III, VA SPRUCE, and Space and Missile Systems Center portfolios.
As a subcontractor, Rise8 delivers capability delivery lifecycle management and enhancement/development services to Deloitte Consulting LLP (December 15, 2025), veteran enterprise module and system-integration services to Technatomy Corporation (May 13, 2025), and product and technology ecosystem management services with secure release pipeline and DevOps support to Booz Allen Hamilton (September 30, 2024)—a pattern consistent with Rise8's role feeding larger defense contractors while maintaining direct prime relationships on software-centric federal IT work. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Rise8 invoiced $789 thousand in FY2024 at a government-paid median rate of $1,011.72 per hour (10th percentile $517.77/hr, 90th percentile $1,505.66/hr), with 0.9 FTEs on SCI-captured work in that fiscal year—a narrow slice of the vendor's total federal services footprint. Combined federal potential value across all awards (prime and sub) stands at $4.05 billion, with $134.1 million obligated (3% of ceiling), reflecting the large ceiling values on vehicle IDIQs against which task orders are issued incrementally.
