Vector Solutions, Inc.

Vector Solutions, Inc., doing business as VSS, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Glendale, Arizona and Bozeman, Montana, is a prime contractor (96% of recent awards) delivering specialized intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance support, signals intelligence training, aviation instruction, and operational support services to the Department of Defense, particularly U.S. Special Operations Command and the Marine Corps. The vendor holds SBA certifications as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and veteran-owned business and operates as a Subchapter S corporation with two named subsidiaries: Vector Innovative Solutions LLC and Vector Innovative Solutions 2 LLC, both self-certified small disadvantaged businesses and service-disabled veteran-owned business joint ventures.

Vector Solutions dominates the special operations training and ISR support market across federal defense agencies. The top five funding agencies account for 93% of recent awards: U.S. Special Operations Command leads with 143 awards ($50.4 million combined potential value), followed by the U.S. Marine Corps (28 awards, $14.8 million), GSA Federal Acquisition Service (3 awards, $18.5 million), Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command (3 awards), and the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (2 awards, $10 billion combined potential value). However, potential-value rankings diverge sharply from award-count concentration: the largest dollar anchors come from relatively few awards—a single $20 billion SEWP VI contract with NASA and two $7 billion to $10 billion placeholder-ceiling IDIQs with Air Logistics Complex and Naval Sea Systems Command that dominate the potential-value ranking despite minimal task-order activity to date.

Capability framing is grounded in concrete award history. Representative prime work spans signals intelligence training (a $6.97 million single-award IDIQ with Marine Corps for MARSOC SIGINT training through November 2027, with delivery orders ranging $55,000 to $351,000 for SIGINT courses at Jacksonville and Sneads Ferry, North Carolina), ISR and blade-hours support (a $14.4 million single-award IDIQ with U.S. Special Operations Command for aircraft on-station hours, ISR platform support, and subject matter expertise through November 2025), MC-12 aircrew training support ($19.7 million definitive contract with the Air Force for non-personal services including mission aircrew, scheduling, and opposing-force support at Will Rogers National Guard Base through March 2028), and intelligence domain training (a $24.76 million delivery order under OASIS+ SDVOSB with Air Force Special Operations Command for JTAC and simulator-operator instruction at Hurlburt Field through April 2031). Recent Marine Corps work includes a $369,991.31 total-small-business delivery order for PRDS SI Fundamentals training (August–November 2026) and a $30,686.00 SDVOSB-set-aside order. On the Air Force side, Vector Solutions holds seats on both SEWP VI (a $20 billion multiple-award GWAC for IT communication and audio-visual solutions across federal agencies, awarded November 2026 through October 2036) and the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex LASR MAC IDIQ ($7.01 billion placeholder ceiling, awarded February 2026 through January 2036) for labor augmentation support.

Vector Solutions competes predominantly in service-disabled veteran-owned small business and total small business set-asides. Across the prime footprint, SDVOSB and total small business designations recur on roughly 70% of recent orders; competitive full-and-open work represents the remainder. The vendor seats on two major GSA government-wide vehicles: OASIS+ SDVOSB IDIQ (awarded September 30, 2024, placeholder ceiling, through September 29, 2029) and OASIS+ Total Small Business set-aside IDIQ (awarded December 19, 2024, placeholder ceiling, through December 18, 2029), enabling access to civilian and defense agencies across all seven functional domains (Management and Advisory, Technical and Engineering, Research and Development, Intelligence Services, Environmental Services, Facilities, and Logistics). The vendor also holds a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (awarded July 9, 2025, $18.5 million ceiling through July 8, 2030) with 37 labor categories spanning technical training, flight training, educational support, software maintenance, and IT professional services at hourly rates ranging $40.40 to $247.47 per hour across education levels from high school through bachelor's degree, with no security-cleared positions offered.

Activity remained moderate but steady. Awards per year declined from 26 in 2022 and 24 in 2023 to 14 in 2024, 9 in 2025, and 12 in 2026 year-to-date, suggesting either consolidation into larger parent IDIQs or shifting from discrete delivery orders to ongoing task-order stream execution rather than new IDV wins. Two awards (combined potential value $20.1 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore recompete exposure, though neither represents a major revenue driver relative to the overall portfolio structure. The top five parent vehicles are all single-award indefinite delivery contracts with U.S. Special Operations Command: IDC H9225717D0003 (26 task orders, $2.9 million combined potential value), IDC H9225720D0006 (18 task orders, $3 million), IDC H9225723D0001 (16 task orders, $3.2 million), IDC H9225723D0002 (13 task orders, $3.3 million), and IDC H9225717D0001 (12 task orders, $2.3 million).

In its subcontractor role, Vector Solutions delivers tactical signals intelligence and electronic warfare training, exercise design, and mission support to Booz Allen Hamilton and Lockheed Martin on advanced tactical EW training programs and advanced skills training delivery. The vendor also subcontracts to Smartronix on C6ISR capabilities for U.S. Special Operations Command Pacific and to Salient CRGT on unspecified labor and administrative services. Across SCI-reportable service contracts, Vector Solutions shows minimal capture: only two records spanning FY2022–FY2024, both in subcontractor roles, representing roughly 4.7 FTEs in FY2022 declining to 1.2 FTEs in FY2024. This sub-only SCI footprint suggests that the vendor's prime revenue derives from delivery-order task streams on government IDIQs and BPAs rather than from directly awarded service contracts above the $150,000 SCI reporting threshold, and that the company's sub-engagement is opportunistic rather than systematic.

The primary NAICS concentration—147 of 192 awards under All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction—reflects Vector Solutions' positioning as a training and instruction vendor. Secondary NAICS codes (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services; Aircraft Manufacturing; Computer Systems Design Services) and PSC codes (Education/Training–Other; Support–Professional Other; Education/Training–Combat; Unmanned Aircraft) confirm the company's pivot across training services, specialized professional support, and aviation-related instruction for defense and intelligence customers. Place of performance data shows heavy concentration in North Carolina (Jacksonville, Sneads Ferry, Camp Lejeune) and Florida (Hurlburt Field) with governmentwide availability under GWACs and government-wide IDIQs, reflecting the vendor's operational footprint in special operations training corridors.
