Stormcenter Communications, Inc.

Stormcenter Communications, Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, develops and licenses geospatial data collaboration software (GeoCollaborate platform) and delivers technical support services to federal civilian agencies exclusively as a prime contractor operating under full-and-open competition without set-aside designations. The vendor holds no seat on government-wide vehicles and competes on individual task orders and grants across nine federal agencies.

Stormcenter's customer footprint concentrates heavily with the Department of Commerce. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration dominates the award count and dollar share—21 awards worth $3.8 million combined potential value, representing roughly 81% of the 38 awards captured in the top-customer ranking. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center accounts for 10 awards valued at $1.5 million, and NASA Headquarters adds 2 awards worth $1.6 million combined potential value. These three customer entities anchor 94% of the vendor's $7.6 million combined potential value across all 47 recent awards. The Department of Commerce US Census Bureau, the Department of Agriculture National Resources Conservation Service, and six other agencies round out the active set but with minimal award volume or dollar magnitude.

Stormcenter's capability portfolio centers on geospatial software licensing, data integration services, and technical support. Representative contract work includes a $284,820 definitive contract with NOAA for GeoCollaborate licenses and technical support running through April 2029, a $225,000 SBIR Phase III purchase order with NOAA supporting the Joint Polar Satellite System Proving Ground Risk Risk Reduction initiatives, and a $25,000 SBIR Phase III purchase order with NOAA for GeoCollaborate license and support services completed in June 2024. Grant work includes a $252,681 NASA grant supporting heliophysics outreach to broadcast meteorologists using the GeoCollaborate platform, a $169,843 NASA grant addressing wildfire community data integration and cross-platform sharing, and a $50,000 NASA Shared Services Center grant for geospatial technology development completed by July 2026. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime recipient on grants and as a prime contractor on task orders; no subcontract footprint is present in the source.

Activity has remained modest and flat over the past five years—two awards in 2021, two in 2022, four in 2023, two in 2025, and one in 2026—with combined dollars obligated ($9.5 million) exceeding the combined potential ceiling ($7.6 million). Stormcenter carries one named parent vehicle: an Indefinite Delivery Contract (DOCDG133W13CQ0041) supporting five task orders valued at $868 thousand. The vendor's work aligns primarily with research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences (nine awards), other scientific and technical consulting services (five awards), and software publishing (four awards).
