About the company
Bluehalo LLC, a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, and a subsidiary of AeroVironment Inc., delivers advanced materials research, directed energy systems engineering, modeling and simulation, and defense technology integration to the Department of Defense as a full-and-open prime contractor (74% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to major defense primes. The company competes with no set-aside designations across its prime footprint, positioning itself in the upper tier of mid-market defense contractors by both dollar volume and technical scope.
Bluehalo's capability portfolio centers on materials science and advanced engineering across multiple domains. The vendor delivers electromagnetic spectrum survivable materials development and vision protection systems under the $500 million HELMSSMAN indefinite-delivery contract from the Air Force Research Laboratory; biotechnology, biomaterials, and responsive materials research under the $150 million FRESH IDIQ, also from AFRL; directed energy modeling, simulation, analysis, and wargaming under an $80 million Other Transaction Agreement IDIQ; and advanced characterization of materials through a $22 million definitive contract with AFRL. Bluehalo also holds the $151 billion Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ from the Missile Defense Agency, awarded January 2026, for multi-domain defense system integration and prototyping, and seats on the $46 billion Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract (EWAAC) and the $249 million Joint Artificial Intelligence Center Test and Evaluation BPA. Recent representative prime work includes a $19.999 million digital avatar development contract with AFRL, a $25 million Advanced Development of Operational Performance Technologies (ADOPT) award from the Air Force for personnel health and performance technologies, a $49.1 million advanced directed energy technologies delivery order from the Space and Missile Defense Command under the $23.6 million Hive Swarm and Anti-Swarm OTA IDIQ, and a $39.9 million Flash and Laser Airborne Protection System (FLAPS) delivery order for laser eye protection and directed energy sensing integration.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Department of Defense research and development organizations. The Air Force Research Laboratory leads by award count with 66 awards ($2.03 billion combined potential value), followed by the Department of the Army (63 awards, $35.6 million) and the Army's Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command (32 awards, $55.9 million). However, the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command anchors the dollar volume with 13 awards carrying $72.55 billion combined potential value—primarily the SHIELD IDIQ. The Air Force across all components accounts for $46.98 billion of combined potential value, and the Army's PEO Simulation, Training and Instrumentation brings $17.53 billion. Top five customers represent 99% of combined potential value, indicating sharp concentration on Navy and Air Force platforms.
Bluehalo operates across multiple parent vehicles. The One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services (OASIS) Small Business vehicle carries the heaviest task-order activity with 96 orders ($104.1 million combined potential value), followed by Indefinite Delivery Contract FA870711D0003 (51 task orders, $37.4 million) and Indefinite Delivery Contract W31P4Q09D0014 (31 task orders, $46.2 million). The vendor also maintains positions on Federal Supply Schedule GS35F0527J and various other IDIQs, enabling it to compete across Army, Air Force, and Navy platforms.
Award activity accelerated sharply through 2024, climbing from 13 awards in 2022 to 84 in 2024, though FY2025 and FY2026 to date show moderation (52 and 7 awards, respectively). Nineteen awards carrying combined potential value of $411.8 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure across multiple AFRL and Army programs.
In its subcontractor role, Bluehalo executes engineering and simulation work to Torch Technologies Inc. on multiple Army S3I (Software, Simulation, System Engineering and Integration) OASIS SB task orders; supports missile defense systems engineering under Parsons Government Services; provides technical support on high-power electromagnetics research under Intrepid LLC; and delivers UAS target systems and training platform components through various primes including Radiance Technologies and MZA Associates. The vendor also subcontracts to Intrepid LLC for high-power electromagnetics research support and to Torch Technologies on modeling, simulation, and analysis work for counter-unmanned aircraft systems and weapons guidance sensor development.
Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal prime service-contract reporting above the $150,000 threshold ($0 invoiced in FY2025); the vendor carries SCI reporting primarily in a sub-contractor role across eight named records spanning FY2022–FY2025, with FTE trajectory declining from 24.7 in FY2022 to 3.2 in FY2025. This reflects Bluehalo's emphasis on R&D and equipment-heavy contracts rather than labor-intensive services, and the SCI dataset is not representative of the vendor's full federal footprint.
The corporate structure includes named subsidiaries Bluehalo Labs LLC (unmanned systems and hardware integration), Bluehalo Cyber Solutions LLC, Design & Development Engineering Services LLC, and Brilligent Solutions LLC, along with eight additional held entities. Bluehalo Labs in particular operates as a supplier of UAS platforms and target systems both to the prime and to subcontractors across the aviation and missile community.
