Trivium Solutions LLC

Trivium Solutions LLC, a Hispanic American-owned, 8(a) certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Columbia, Maryland, delivers satellite ground systems engineering, radar data recording hardware, and antenna control systems to federal space and defense agencies, operating as a prime contractor on 70% of recent awards and as a subcontractor to larger primes on space communications integration work. The company is structured as a Subchapter S Corporation and maintains a named subsidiary, Aptum Solutions LLC, also minority-owned and 8(a) certified.

Trivium's customer base concentrates heavily on two agencies accounting for all recent awards. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA, within the Department of Commerce) dominates the portfolio with 4 awards and $11.9 million combined potential value, spanning satellite telemetry and commanding subsystem (STACS) sustainment, hardware technology refresh, and antenna control unit engineering support for polar and command-and-data-acquisition stations. The Naval Air Warfare Center (Department of the Navy) places a second 4-award stream of $945 thousand in combined potential value for NVRR3200 radar data digital recorder parts and systems under sole-source and Total Small Business set-asides. NASA's Goddard Space Center accounts for 2 awards (subcontract work under Peraton) on space communications network engineering. Across the award portfolio, Trivium codes primarily to engineering services (4 awards) and other communications equipment manufacturing (3 awards) by NAICS, with radar equipment dominating the product-services classification (PSC) count.

Trivium's capability footprint centers on satellite ground infrastructure. Representative prime work includes a $2.67 million 8(a) sole-source NOAA purchase order awarded August 2024 for STACS hardware refresh and sustainment engineering through July 2027; a $4.72 million Option Year Two NOAA contract (awarded April 2024, executing through April 2029) for antenna control unit, high-power amplifier, and RF component engineering support at NOAA's Chincoteague, Virginia facility; and recurring Navy purchase orders for NVRR3200 radar data digital recorders at Naval Air Warfare Center, including a $242 thousand Total Small Business order awarded January 2026 and a $239.5 thousand sole-source order from April 2025. On the sub side, Trivium provides VGOS 12-meter antenna engineering support to Peraton (awarded April 2026) and ground systems and mission operations engineering services to KBR Wyle Services (awarded January 2023).

Activity shows modest but consistent engagement. The vendor secured one award in 2022, one in 2023, three in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026. Two awards (combined potential value $2.9 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting a recompete window. Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts, Trivium invoiced $3.1 million in prime contract revenue from FY2022 through FY2024, with peak activity in FY2023 at $1.8 million across 2.3 FTEs. Government-paid rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts cluster tightly around $251/hour (10th to 90th percentile range: $250.75 to $251.40/hr), suggesting specialized technical labor. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for an average of 19% of contractor hours, with two named subcontractors reported, indicating Trivium builds most delivery in-house. The vendor competes both under 8(a) set-asides (sole-source and competitive designations on NOAA work) and full-and-open (Navy sole-source and Total Small Business awards).
