What Capital Solutions Group does

Capital Solutions Group, LLC (CSG) is a privately-held Maryland small business founded in 2007 that delivers mission-critical IT services and proprietary AI products to the U.S. Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. Headquartered in Annapolis with a second office in Columbia, Maryland, the company employs between 11 and 50 people organized around enterprise architecture, software and systems engineering, data science and AI/ML, DevOps, and cloud computing. CSG's customer base consists primarily of defense and intelligence agencies, with secondary exposure to commercial entities; revenue is generated through professional services contracts (including sole-source awards) and through the licensing/deployment of its proprietary AI platform. CSG leadership and technical staff hold deep institutional knowledge of customer IT architectures, accumulated through years of embedded service delivery, and the company has positioned itself as a 'gold standard' provider within the IC for enterprise and mission IT services.

CSG's proprietary product, ChatCSG, is a retrieval-augmented large language model platform purpose-built for national security and defense environments. The platform combines RAG against authoritative internal datasets, Model Context Protocol integration, real-time API connectivity, and DoD Responsible AI compliance (including CDAO guardrails and RLHF) to deliver secure natural-language queries with explainable, traceable outputs. ChatCSG is designed for classified environments and supports use cases including outage management, DoD acquisition and contract lifecycle management (aligned with FAR, DFARS, DAWIA), and cybersecurity threat intelligence. The product was formally launched in November 2025 alongside a sole-source federal contract award, validating commercial traction.

CSG's go-to-market is enterprise field sales into federal agencies through direct contracting and joint ventures, most notably Patrius LLC, a joint venture with Fuse Engineering and Evlos Technology that won a large multi-year Intelligence Community contract in September 2025. Distribution is domestic only, with operations concentrated in the National Capital Region and Mid-Atlantic. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with negotiated federal procurement. In 2025-2026 the company has professionalized its executive bench, adding a COO/CGO from CACI, establishing an inaugural Board of Directors chaired by a former NSA and Leidos senior leader, and signaling an intent to scale both organically and through inorganic growth.
