What BAMTech does

BAM Technologies, LLC is a veteran-owned small business founded in 2005 by George Barborak and Kendall McAree in Arlington, Virginia. The firm delivers enterprise software development, digital transformation, and IT modernization services to the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies, with a workforce of nearly 300 professionals distributed across 41 states, more than 30% of whom are veterans or military spouses. Named engagements include the Air Force Automated Education Management System (AFAEMS), DoD Benefits Hub, the Army's Enterprise Exceptional Family Member Program (E-EFMP), and programs for the Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Military Community and Family Policy. The company operates as a trusted prime and subcontractor under multi-year contract vehicles, generating revenue primarily through professional services and SBIR-funded programs.

The core product portfolio centers on the Digital Transformation Kit (DTK) — an SBIR Phase III low-code platform enabling accelerated application development, microservice architecture, API-first data interoperability, and legacy system integration — alongside BLAKE, an agentic conversational AI assistant. Technology is built on certified OutSystems low-code, Salesforce PDO delivery, and AWS services (Bedrock and SageMaker) operating at IL5 authorization, supporting HIPAA, RMF, and Section 508 compliance. The Agent First paradigm positions AI agents as the primary user interface rather than traditional screen-based navigation, with predictive decision support and autonomous workflow execution.

Revenue mechanics combine professional services contracts, SBIR Phase I/II/III awards, and sole-source procurement authority enabled by the firm's veteran-owned status and Phase III designation. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales to DoD and federal program offices, supplemented by prime/subcontractor relationships with industry partners. Pricing is quote-based and tied to contract vehicles and statements of work, with multi-year engagement cadences. Key certifications include OutSystems Delivery Partner of the Year (2021) and Salesforce PDO partner status, with Bill Gillen as Chief Security Officer overseeing DevSecOps since 2009.
