About Startup Community Inc.
Startup Community Inc., a for-profit Maine-based advisory firm, provides innovation ecosystem development and strategic advisory services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with no subcontract activity and no set-aside designations across its recent footprint. The company operates out of Kennebunkport, Maine, and competes in full-and-open federal procurements across research and development and educational support services.
Startup Community Inc.'s federal work centers on innovation facilitation and ecosystem development for the Air Force. The company holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of the Air Force valued at up to $1.9 million through August 2026, under which it delivers "Innovation Sherpa" services to the AFWERX program. These services involve requirements definition, source identification, and pilot coordination to connect Air Force organizations with external startups and small businesses developing technologies of strategic interest. The company's largest award is a $12 million Definitive Contract with the SBA Office of Investments and Innovations under the SBIR Phase III SBA AFWERX Building the Ecosystem program, awarded July 19, 2021, with performance extending through July 18, 2026. That contract encompasses communication and marketing asset development—brand messaging, slide decks, brochures, and social media strategies—for the Office of Strategic Communication, alongside continued Innovation Sherpa services to AFRL. Recent BPA calls under the Air Force vehicle include a $173,810 February 2025 task order for AFWERX administrative support through December 17, 2025, and a $165,854 January 2026 task order for refinery administrative support through December 31, 2026.
Customer concentration is narrow. The SBA Office of Investments and Innovations anchors $12 million of the company's $15 million combined potential value across six awards; the Department of the Air Force holds the $1.9 million BPA; and the Air Force Research Laboratory's Materiel Command represents four awards totaling $1.1 million. All six awards are primes; the company operates exclusively as a prime contractor with minimal subcontractor engagement (3% of hours across SCI-reportable prime contracts, one named sub).
The company faces material recompete exposure: two awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $12.1 million, representing 81% of its active potential-value base. SCI-reported invoicing in FY2024 reached $1.8 million across 5.2 FTEs, with government-paid rates running at $161.31 per hour across the measured contract. The company's award trajectory is sparse—two awards in 2019, two in 2021, one in 2025, one in 2026—suggesting a limited federal pipeline outside the two large Air Force/SBA vehicles.
