SDVOSB software consulting built for federal agencies, not demo days

Yes — VooStack is certified through the SBA's Veteran Small Business Certification (VetCert) program, which replaced the old VA CVE process in 2023. For your contracting officer, that means we're eligible for SDVOSB set-asides and sole-source awards up to $5M for civilian agencies and $7.5M for DoD. We can provide our certification letter, SAM.gov registration, UEI, and CAGE code on first call.

We work under SDVOSB set-aside and sole-source authority, GSA MAS IT (Special Item Numbers for IT professional services and cloud), SEWP V through partner primes, agency-specific BPAs, and OTA arrangements for defense work. For task orders under existing IDIQs, we frequently subcontract to primes who need cleared SDVOSB participation to meet small-business goals.

We build the SSP, control implementation statements, and POA&M alongside the code rather than after. Evidence collection — vulnerability scans, access reviews, configuration baselines — runs in CI and lands in eMASS or Xacta automatically. For systems inheriting from FedRAMP Moderate platforms like AWS GovCloud, we typically cut ATO timelines from 12-18 months down to 4-7 months.

Yes, when scoped correctly. For controlled unclassified information, we route through AWS Bedrock in GovCloud (Claude available) or Azure OpenAI Government. Prompts and completions are logged for FOIA and IG review, PII is redacted pre-flight, and RAG uses isolated vector stores inside the authorization boundary. We do not connect agency data to public API endpoints.

A portion of our bench holds active Secret and TS/SCI clearances; others are public-trust eligible. For classified work we staff from the cleared pool and can sponsor additional clearances when contract terms support it. For most civilian agency work — Treasury, HHS, USDA, Commerce — public trust suitability is sufficient and we move faster there.

Administrations change priorities every two to four years. Systems built around one administration's signature initiative tend to die with it. We design for the boring layer underneath: identity, data, integration, audit. That work survives reorgs because the agency still has to run payroll, process claims, and answer Congress regardless of who is in the building.

Built in. Every component in our front-end libraries ships with ARIA roles, keyboard navigation, and screen-reader testing. Pa11y and axe-core run in CI and fail the build on WCAG 2.1 AA violations. We test with NVDA and JAWS before delivery. Retrofitting 508 compliance at the end of a project typically costs 3-5x what building it in costs.

Often the right move. We embed senior engineers — typically 10-20 year operators — into your existing program as staff augmentation under SDVOSB set-aside or through a prime. They work your tickets, attend your standups, and follow your security plan. This is useful when you have a prime you like but need specific depth in cloud, AI integration, or modernization.

We are US-based and work on-site across the National Capital Region — agency facilities in DC, Northern Virginia, and suburban Maryland. For SCIF work we send cleared staff to your space. For unclassified work we mix on-site presence (typically 2-3 days a week) with remote development against GovCloud environments. No offshore labor on any engagement.
