Prescient Edge

What Prescient Edge does

Prescient Edge Corporation (PEC) is a veteran-owned government technology integrator headquartered in McLean, Virginia, providing intelligence-driven solutions and C5ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) services to the U.S. Department of Defense, Intelligence Community, and Department of Homeland Security. The company's portfolio centers on three pillars: Research, Development & Engineering (RD&E) covering integration of unmanned platforms, data science, and C5ISR systems integration; Intelligence Solutions spanning all-source analysis, predictive analytics, counterintelligence, and 24/7 operations center capabilities; and the acquired Edge Analytic Solutions (EAS) subsidiary, which provides mission-critical intelligence analytics for the Defense Intelligence Enterprise. Core technology assets include the government-owned Minotaur C5ISR system for multi-sensor data fusion and real-time tracking, the GISMO SBIR Phase III contract vehicle for autonomous systems integration, and the Task Force 59 AI framework that has coordinated more than 23 autonomous surface, subsurface, and air platforms and nearly 30 multinational exercises for the U.S. Navy.

The company generates revenue exclusively through federal contracting, operating as a prime contractor on multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicles including GSA OASIS+, DIA SIA3 ($17B ceiling), USSOCOM SOF CORE ($950M ceiling), NAVSEA SEAPORT NxG ($50B ceiling), GISMO SBIR Phase III, NAVSEA USV FOS, and DHS CBP vehicles, supplemented by SBIR Phase III contracts and task-order awards. Prescient Edge scaled from approximately 25 to over 800 employees under CEO Alexander Granados, who acquired the company in 2017, and in 2024 the company outgrew its SBA small-business status and won the Greater Washington GovCon Program of the Year award for its Task Force 59 work. In January 2025 the company completed the acquisition of Edge Analytic Solutions as a wholly owned subsidiary to deepen intelligence-analytics capabilities. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales into federal agencies through direct contract-vehicle access, with no commercial or international customer diversification disclosed.
