Strategic Insight, LTD.

Strategic Insight, LTD., a small disadvantaged business headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, provides defense systems engineering, business operations, and digital transformation consulting to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor on multiple Navy-led IDIQs and as a subcontractor to defense primes, with 78% of recent awards held as prime contracts across full-and-open competition.

The vendor's footprint is heavily concentrated in Navy acquisition and systems commands. The top five customer agencies account for 75% of recent awards by count, dominated overwhelmingly by the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (28 awards, $10.13 billion combined potential value) — a concentration that dominates the dollar rankings as well. The General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service Management Services Center holds $90.3 million (one award), and the Department of the Navy Secretary of the Navy Assistant for Administration holds $67.9 million (two awards). Strategic Insight also serves the Office of the Secretary of Defense (11 awards, $7.2 million) and the Naval Supply Systems Command (16 awards, $3.3 million). Across all 20 distinct customer agencies served, Strategic Insight has accumulated $10.32 billion in combined potential value, though only $238.4 million (2%) has been obligated to date.

Strategic Insight's recent activity shows sharp growth: one award in 2022, two in 2023, twelve in 2024, five in 2025, and one in 2026. The most significant recent win is a $47.2 million delivery order awarded by the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development and Acquisition on January 15, 2026, under Seaport Next Generation (Seaport-NXG) for business operations, data management, and digital transformation professional support services, extending through July 21, 2031. Strategic Insight also holds a seat on the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ (10-year performance period through December 28, 2035), awarded December 29, 2025, with a $500 initial task order for research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, and weapon design addressing ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missile threats. A smaller $150,064 definitive contract with Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for digital transformation guidance closed in May 2025.

Strategic Insight's vehicle portfolio reflects Navy dominance. The top parent vehicles are the Federal Supply Schedule GS23F8098H (49 task orders, $7.4 million), Seaport Next Generation (20 task orders, $67.9 million), SeaPort-e (11 task orders, $141.7 million), an indefinite delivery contract (10 task orders, $3.6 million), and the OPNAV N2N6 Management Support Services vehicle (5 task orders). The work spans administrative management and general management consulting (61 awards), engineering services (37 awards), and research and development (5 awards combined across physical, engineering, and life sciences categories).
