Scitech Services Inc.

Scitech Services Inc., doing business as Scitech, is a minority-owned small business (Subcontinent Asian/Asian-Indian American owned) headquartered in Havre de Grace, Maryland, that supplies chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) defense equipment and brand-name commercial items to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor, alongside scientific staffing and research support services to the National Institutes of Health. The vendor competes predominantly under total small business set-asides across its CBRN defense portfolio and without set-asides across its NIH and HHS staffing work, making set-aside posture context-dependent by customer agency.

Scitech's customer base is heavily concentrated in Army CBRN defense programs. Of 550 prime and sub awards spanning federal sources, the top five funding agencies by count account for 80% of all awards: the Department of the Army (185 awards, $514.1 million combined potential value), the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (97 awards, $54.8 million), RDECOM (66 awards, $1.04 billion), Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground (48 awards, $37.41 billion), and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (44 awards, $3.1 million). However, potential-value rankings shift sharply: Aberdeen Proving Ground dominates at $37.41 billion across 48 awards—anchored by the $500 million JPEO-CBRND Rapid COTS IDIQ—followed by the Joint PEO Chemical and Biological Defense ($10.62 billion across 23 awards). This represents a classic dual concentration: high-award-count presence at NIDCR with smaller dollar values, and extreme dollar concentration in Army CBRN equipment procurement vehicles.

Scitech's primary capability footprint centers on CBRN defense equipment procurement and scientific research support. On the CBRN side, recent representative work includes a $7.06 million delivery order for Common Analytical Laboratory System Field Confirmatory Analytical Capability Set Buy 6A (May 2026, Army), a $17.63 million Far-Forward Biological Sequencing Increment G order (February 2026, Defense Finance and Accounting Service), a $6.7 million Fiscal Year 25 Joint Service Mask Leakage Testers contract (September 2025, total small business set-aside), and a $3.97 million Common Analytical Laboratory System ACS Buy 4 delivery order (April 2024). Scitech also delivers smaller specialized equipment items—permeability testers, EMULATE ZOE CM2, buccal chips, autoclaves, HEPA filters, and biosensor biomanufacturing support—across a broad JPEO-CBRND Rapid COTS delivery-order portfolio. On the scientific staffing side, NIDCR task orders under a $43.3 million scientific support BPA represent research nurses, senior scientists, biologists, physician assistants, project managers, administrative support, and specialized roles such as bioinformatics data scientists and clinical research coordinators, with ceiling values typically ranging from $100 thousand to $300 thousand per task order.

Scitech holds positions on multiple major federal vehicles. The $500 million JPEO-CBRND Rapid COTS Indefinite Delivery Contract (awarded August 2025, set aside for total small business, through July 2027) is Scitech's primary CBRN procurement platform, with 54 task orders generating $80.5 million in combined potential value. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule carries 209 task orders worth $115.9 million, primarily supporting NIDCR scientific staffing work and other civilian agency tasks. Scitech also holds seats on the $869 million Scientific, Technical, Engineering and Program Support Services (STEPSS) contract (Army, through April 2032), the $906.57 million Joint Enterprise Contracted Logistics and Services Support II (JE-CLASS II) logistics vehicle (January 2023–January 2027), the $175 million Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response single-award technical and medical staffing IDC (HHS, through March 2025), and multiple-award positions on OASIS+ Small Business and OASIS+ Unrestricted vehicles (both through December 2029). A $40 million Agricultural Research Service animal care BPA (awarded May 2026) and a $9.7 million Space and Missile Systems Center independent program assessments BPA (November 2022–October 2028) round out the portfolio. The vendor also holds a recent award under a $1.134 million Department of Veterans Affairs institutional review board oversight contract (September 2022–September 2025).

Scitech's recent activity trajectory shows sustained engagement with growth in contract count but concentration of dollars in larger vehicles. Awards per year averaged 38 across 2022–2026 (23, 47, 56, 43, and 21 year-to-date through July 2026), with 31 awards carrying ultimate completion dates within the next 24 months and combined potential value of $77 million—a recompete exposure window reflecting the vendor's reliance on time-limited delivery orders and task-order vehicles that require continuous repricing or rebid.

Service Contract Inventory data, which captures federal service contracts above the $150 thousand threshold, shows SCI-reported invoiced revenue of $23.4 million across fiscal years 2022–2024 (FY2022: $6.8 million, 51.3 FTEs; FY2023: $8.1 million, 56.3 FTEs; FY2024: $8.4 million, 55.8 FTEs at contract-level aggregation). SCI FTE counts for the most recent complete fiscal year show only 17.0 FTEs reported across 5 prime records, a significant decline from the contract-level aggregate of 55.8 FTEs in the same period and reflecting underreporting or classification variance in SCI. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reported service contracts run median $83.93/hr, with 10th percentile at $54.50/hr and 90th percentile at $145.01/hr. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors perform an average of 53% of total contractor hours, indicating Scitech builds significant portions of its delivery teams through named subcontractor relationships; the dataset identifies 8 named subcontractors across the reporting period.

On the GSA Schedule, Scitech offers 34 labor categories spanning administrative support ($59.14/hr) through executive consulting ($393.92/hr), with representative mid-range roles including Web Developer ($82.30/hr), QA/QC ($123.31/hr), and Software Engineer III ($211.29/hr). No security-cleared positions are listed; education requirements range from high school through master's degree.

Scitech competes primarily as a prime contractor (100% of awards in the portfolio are prime; sub awards are minimal at 2 records). The vendor is predominantly an internal-team builder for smaller task orders and a sub-delegator for larger efforts, with the 53% average subcontractor hours share on SCI contracts indicating material reliance on supply-chain partners to scale delivery. Named subcontractors in the source appear on two sub-awards: The Survice Engineering Company LLC (DOD Information Analysis Center support, March 2025) and Battelle Memorial Institute (20th CBRNE Command planning and training, November 2021).

Scitech's business posture is bifurcated: a small-business-set-aside CBRN equipment supplier to the Army with deep entrenchment in JPEO-CBRND and related defense acquisition channels, and a non-set-aside scientific and administrative staffing provider to NIH and HHS. The combined portfolio of $50.58 billion in potential value is heavily skewed toward equipment procurement vehicles ($37.41 billion at Aberdeen Proving Ground alone), while invoiced federal service revenue captured in SCI runs only $23.4 million over three years—a difference that underscores the significance of equipment-delivery and IDC task-order optionality in Scitech's federal footprint versus the modest scale of directly invoiced service delivery visible in government accounting records.
