Skylight Inc.

Skylight Inc., a Sarasota, Florida-based digital consultancy, operates as a prime contractor on 97% of its recent federal awards, delivering service design, cloud modernization, and technology transformation services across 25 federal customer agencies under total small business and full-and-open designations. The for-profit Subchapter S corporation holds total small business certifications and competes predominantly on full-and-open vehicles rather than set-aside-exclusive awards, though several of its largest IDIQs carry total small business set-asides.

Skylight's capability footprint centers on custom computer programming, service design, cloud migration, data analytics, systems integration, and electronic records management. Recent representative work includes a $26.35 million total small business delivery order from the Administration for Children and Families (award date September 30, 2026) for scaling service design across ACF/OA under the VIBES IDIQ; a $30.5 million total small business delivery order from Air Education and Training Command (September 30, 2024) for Simple Report and Data Integration Building Blocks service design and engineering under the Design Studio BESPIN Ecosystem; a $25.1 million Federal Student Aid delivery order (September 8, 2026) for Federal Tax Information module Agile capacity support under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule; and a $38.3 million Department of Health and Human Services delivery order (September 30, 2025) for HHS processes improvement and Authority to Operate transformation on a time-and-materials basis. The company also holds a $90 million single-award NARA IDIQ for Presidential Electronic Records Migration Activities (NEEMO), with multiple task orders issued since June 2026 supporting electronic records migration, AI search capabilities, security modernization, and core team support.

Customer concentration is moderate but multi-modal by ranking. The top five agencies account for 64% of recent award count and 85% of combined potential value, though the concentration splits across different rankings. The Department of the Air Force dominates by potential value with six awards totaling $959.8 million, anchored by a $950 million Advanced Battle Management Systems multiple-award IDC (award date June 9, 2022, completion May 28, 2030). The Administration for Children and Families leads by both count and value within the HHS civilian portfolio with seven awards and $283.1 million combined potential. The Department of Education Office of Federal Student Aid holds two awards totaling $325.1 million, driven by a $300 million Blanket Purchase Agreement for outcome-focused digital services (award date July 29, 2026, completion July 28, 2031, total small business set-aside against GSA Multiple Award Schedule). Air Education and Training Command places 15 awards worth $175.2 million, primarily Design Studio BESPIN Ecosystem task orders. The National Archives and Records Administration has 16 awards totaling $142.2 million, split between the $90 million NEEMO IDIQ (June 25, 2026, completion March 31, 2030) and earlier $30 million PERMA SBIR Phase III IDIQ (March 26, 2025, completion March 31, 2030). Overall combined potential value across all 77 awards is $2.22 billion, with $249.9 million (11%) currently obligated.

Skylight's vehicle footprint reflects heavy reliance on large IDIQs and multiple-award vehicles. The Air Force Design Studio BESPIN Ecosystem indefinite delivery contract (FA8771-22-D-0003, award date September 30, 2022, completion September 29, 2027, $100 million, total small business set-aside) carries 21 task orders totaling $82.2 million in combined potential value. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule hosts 11 task orders totaling $465.8 million, driven by the $300 million FSA BPA and $25.1 million FTI module order. The VIBES indefinite delivery contract (award date September 24, 2025, completion September 23, 2030, $88 million, total small business set-aside) supports three delivery orders. The NARA NEEMO IDIQ (90 million ceiling) and the earlier PERMA SBIR Phase III IDIQ (30 million ceiling) together structure 16 task orders for electronic records migration work. The Department of the Air Force's Joint All Domain Command and Control Support multiple-award IDC anchors the $950 million ABMS vehicle.

Activity has accelerated sharply year over year: four awards in 2022, nine each in 2023 and 2024, twenty in 2025, and seventeen in 2026 (year to date). Sixteen awards with combined potential value of $135.7 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure for Skylight and recompete opportunity for competitors.

Skylight operates primarily as a prime contractor with minimal subcontractor dependency. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for an average of 6% of total contractor hours. Named subcontractors include Aquia Inc. (a veteran-owned small business providing governance, risk, and compliance Authority to Operate support on the ACF digital platform delivery order) and Think Of US (providing youth engagement subject-matter expertise on related ACF work); other subs are reported in lower volume. As a subcontractor, Skylight appears on A+ Government Solutions LLC prime contracts for HHS Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT health information technology initiatives.

Service Contract Inventory activity shows rapid staffing growth and increasing federal services revenue. SCI-reportable invoicing was $6.4 million in FY2022 across 17.9 FTEs, growing to $34.7 million in FY2025 across 77.3 FTEs—a compound growth trajectory consistent with the vehicle and delivery-order award volume spike. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reported prime contracts run from $32.21/hr (10th percentile) to a median of $173.75/hr to $244.52/hr (90th percentile), reflecting a mixed workforce of junior technical staff, mid-level engineers and product managers, and senior consultants and subject matter experts. GSA Schedule labor categories span 53 unique roles priced from $149.66/hr to $275.53/hr across systems engineers, product managers, engagement managers, and subject matter experts at bachelor's degree minimum, with no security-cleared positions offered. The pricing spectrum aligns with commercial rates for federal civilian and health-IT modernization work rather than defense-cleared technical labor.
