Sokat Consulting LLC

Sokat Consulting LLC, doing business as Sokat, is an SBA Certified 8(a) program participant and woman-owned, minority-owned small business based in Baltimore, Maryland that delivers artificial intelligence engineering, machine learning solutions, advanced software development, and IT modernization services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards). Sokat operates as an LLC and holds concurrent designations as an Asian-Pacific American-owned business and self-certified small disadvantaged business; the firm competes predominantly under 8(a) set-asides and Total Small Business designations, with recent prime awards spanning Competitive 8(a), 8(a) Sole Source, and non-set-aside full-and-open procurements.

Sokat's customer concentration is anchored by the GSA Federal Acquisition Service and the Office of the Secretary of Defense on the potential-value ranking, though Treasury-aligned customers (Departmental Offices, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Internal Revenue Service) dominate award volume and near-term obligation. GSA accounts for $50 billion in combined potential value across two awards—the 8(a) STARS III GWAC (position held since February 2022) and a $118 million Treasury-funded Technical Workforce Development and Training BPA under the Multiple Award Schedule established in April 2026. The Office of the Secretary of Defense holds $498 million in combined potential value across a $249 million Basic Ordering Agreement for AI Talent 2.0 services (May 2028 completion) and a $249 million Test and Evaluation BPA for the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center (January 2027 completion). Treasury Departmental Offices account for $177.1 million across four awards, including a $50.3 million Indefinite Delivery Contract for AI-powered coding assistant and chat tools (September 2026 completion) and an $8.3 million delivery order under that IDC from the Department of the Interior for AI coding tools and chat tools (September 2026 completion).

Concrete representative work includes a $7.5 million definitive contract with the Internal Revenue Service for Pilot IRS Augmented Reality Phase 1 (awarded September 2021, extending through September 2026), a $2 million Solutions Lab Support Services delivery order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency under GSA MAS (awarded June 2024, extending through June 2028 on a labor-hours basis), a $650 thousand definitive contract with the VA Technology Acquisition Center for the Sokat Suicidal Ideation Engine (awarded March 2022, completed April 2023), and a $552,360 BPA call from the Department of the Interior for artificial intelligence engineer workforce development and technical training under GSA MAS (awarded May 2026, completing May 2027). Sokat places four task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule ($121.1 million combined potential value), with labor categories spanning Business Intelligence Analyst, Systems Analyst, Quality Assurance Engineer, Software Developer, Project Manager, Cloud DevOps Engineer, and Subject Matter Expert roles at hourly rates from $83.63 to $329.30; all offered positions require bachelor's degrees and no security clearances.

Activity shows irregular cadence—two awards in 2021, three in 2022, two in 2024, three in 2025, and two in 2026—with four awards (combined potential value $18.4 million) facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore subject to recompete. On the sub side, Sokat performs as a named subcontractor to Deloitte Consulting LLP on an Enterprise Measurement and Configuration Services engagement (award date January 2024). Service Contract Inventory data spans FY2022 through FY2024 and shows zero invoiced revenue across prime contracts in that window, with 2.0 FTEs reported in FY2024 (one prime, one sub record), reflecting minimal SCI-reportable activity relative to the vendor's contract ceiling portfolio. The gap between $50.69 billion in combined potential value and $10.7 million in combined dollars obligated signals that Sokat's vehicle positions (particularly the 8(a) STARS III GWAC, Treasury AI-powered Coding Assistant IDC, and DoD BOAs) remain substantially underutilized relative to their ceilings.
