What BDR Solutions does

BDR Solutions, LLC is a privately held Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) federal IT contractor founded in 2016 by Bob Rowe, a 24-year U.S. Navy veteran, and headquartered in Leesburg, Virginia. The company delivers professional and technical services — including Health IT, Agile Software Development, Infrastructure Operations, Data Science and Business Analytics, IT Modernization, Systems Engineering, and Supply Chain Management — to U.S. federal civilian and defense agencies, with the Department of Veterans Affairs, Defense Health Agency, Department of Defense, Defense Intelligence Agency, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of Justice as named customers.

The company's underlying technology stack centers on HL7 FHIR-based health data interoperability for federal healthcare systems, Palantir data platforms (BDR is the sole SBA-certified SDVOSB/8(a)/HUBZone license reseller), Smile Digital Health's FHIR data fabric, and an emerging Agentic AI virtual care layer delivered through a cliexa partnership. BDR holds ISO 9001:2015, CMMI Maturity Level 3, and CMMC Level 2 certifications and accesses the federal market exclusively through government-wide acquisition contracts (GWACs) and IDIQs including GSA Polaris SDVOSB, GSA OASIS+, VA T4NG2, FAA ITIPSS, and MDA SHIELD.

BDR's business model is professional services revenue earned under multi-year federal task orders, supplemented by Palantir software license resale and managed services. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales into federal program offices, supported by industry event presence (e.g., DHITS 2025), PR/earned media, and content marketing. The company operates a joint venture, Dynamic Government Resources (DGR), to pursue set-aside work such as the VA Information Security Policy Program. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; headcount stands at approximately 200 employees.
