Saliense Consulting LLC

Saliense Consulting LLC, doing business as Saliense, is an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and SBA 8(a) Program Participant based in McLean, Virginia, that delivers cybersecurity, IT security compliance, data analytics, and enterprise transformation services to federal civilian and defense agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). Saliense competes predominantly under set-asides — recent prime awards split across 8(a) Sole Source, Competitive 8(a), Woman-Owned Small Business, and Total Small Business designations — and also holds seats on three GSA OASIS+ indefinite delivery vehicles spanning different set-aside categories (Total Small Business, 8(a), and Women-Owned Small Business) and a Navy SEAPORT-NxG contract, positioning the company to compete across multiple federal procurement channels. The company is a minority-owned, Subcontinent Asian American-owned limited liability company with two named subsidiaries (Synergist JV2, LLC and Synergist JV LLC), both structured as joint-venture entities.

Customer concentration sits with civilian IT and security agencies. The top five funding entities account for 77% of combined potential value: the U.S. Agency for International Development's Mexico mission leads with a single $78.7 million delivery order for institutional support services (ultimately terminated for convenience on February 26, 2025), followed by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ($70.1 million across two awards), the Office of Naval Research ($50 million), the Federal Emergency Management Agency ($49.1 million across 28 awards), and the Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration ($41.3 million). FEMA dominates recent award count (28 awards, $49.1 million) with Saliense delivering repeated Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO) support services calls under FEMA's GSA Multiple Award Schedule. CISA has placed two large delivery orders — a $13.4 million analytical infrastructure governance task order and a $1.88 million IT security and compliance support delivery order — reflecting repeated engagement in cybersecurity and compliance infrastructure. The U.S. Army, through multiple commands, has awarded Saliense contracts for behavioral health system sustainment ($3.7 million), Army Recovery Care System support ($3.9 million), and IT support services to Letterkenny Army Depot ($3.5 million). The Office of Naval Research exercised an option period on a $4.5 million IT application development support contract in March 2025. The U.S. Marshals Service awarded a $32.3 million IT security support services delivery order in September 2023.

Saliense holds three active GSA OASIS+ indefinite delivery vehicles awarded in late 2024, each carrying a $999,999,999,999 placeholder ceiling through 2029–2030: the Total Small Business set-aside IDIQ (awarded December 19, 2024), the Competitive 8(a) IDIQ (awarded November 6, 2024), and the Women-Owned Small Business IDIQ (awarded September 30, 2024). The company was also recently awarded a seat on the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) 10-year multiple-award IDIQ with a $151 billion ceiling (awarded December 29, 2025), though the single initial delivery order carried only $500. Saliense places the majority of its task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule vehicle (82 task orders, $361.3 million combined potential value) and maintains a Navy SEAPORT-NxG contract under which it delivered a $45.5 million delivery order to the Office of Naval Research in June 2023. The company's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 69 active categories, ranging from junior configuration-management specialists at $52.90 per hour through cloud managers at $270.64 per hour, with representative mid-level roles in project management ($132.46/hr), quality assurance ($115.19/hr), and senior technical subject-matter expertise ($153.57/hr and above).

Activity has been volatile over the past five years — 15 awards in 2021, 16 in 2022, 11 in 2023, declining to 7 in 2024, and rebounding to 8 in 2025 — with seven awards (combined potential value $102.5 million) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, exposing Saliense to significant recompete risk in that window. SCI-reported invoiced revenue for federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold reached $35.5 million in FY2024 across 143 full-time equivalents delivered to federal agencies, up from $25.4 million in FY2023 across 94 FTEs and $16.8 million in FY2022 across 58 FTEs, reflecting growing scale in the SCI-reportable subset. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, government-paid rates ran a median of $128.28 per hour, with the 10th percentile at $107.51/hr and the 90th percentile at $175.24/hr. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 33% of total contractor hours, with 63 named subcontractors engaged. Saliense's recent contract awards show firm fixed-price, time-and-materials, and cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structures depending on the customer and contract type, with place of performance spanning Arlington and West McLean, Virginia; Washington, D.C.; Frederick, Maryland; Chambersburg, Pennsylvania; and task-order locations nationwide.
