Federal IT & Cybersecurity Contracts

By Gunpowder Editorial ·

1 total filings analysed

Executive Summary

This digest covers a single federal IT and cybersecurity contract totaling $21,908,995 in obligations, awarded to Digital Management LLC by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS), a civilian agency; the defense/civilian split is 0 defense and 1 civilian.

The dominant theme is civilian health-agency IT hosting, with the CDC's on-premises application hosting order carrying a firm-fixed-price structure awarded under full and open competition. The highest-conviction observation is that roughly 84% ($18,409,011) has already been outlayed, indicating substantial delivery progress, though the signal strength is low (3/10) and materiality is minimal (2/10) because the recipient's public-company status is not established. The key watch item is whether the order is exercised, modified, or extended beyond its current 2026-11-10 end date, since only about $3.5 million remains against the obligation. Overall the investment signal is neutral with no clear investable public-equity exposure identified from the data provided.

Investment Signals (1)

  • Digital Management LLC wins $21.9M CDC on-premises hosting delivery order (LOW)
    ▲

    The CDC awarded Digital Management LLC a firm-fixed-price delivery order worth $21,908,995 on 2023-08-28, with $18,409,011 (about 84%) already outlayed. Performance runs through 2026-11-10 in Atlanta, GA, and the recipient's ticker status is not established in the data.

Risk Flags (1)

  • Execution [LOW RISK]
    ▼

    The order's current and potential end dates are identical (2026-11-10), leaving no contractual runway for extension without a modification, and roughly $3.5 million remains unspent against the $21.9M obligation at CDC.

Opportunities (1)

  • ◆

    If Digital Management LLC or a comparable hosting provider is positioned for CDC follow-on work, continued demand for on-premises application hosting could support renewed civilian health-IT awards once the current order approaches completion.

Sector Themes (1)

  • ◆

    The single award reflects CDC demand for outsourced on-premises application hosting and data center support labor (NAICS 541512, PSC DC01), funded as a firm-fixed-price order under full and open competition. With only one contract in this period, the theme rests on thin evidence and cannot yet be distinguished from a one-off requirement.
