Synergetics

What Synergetics does

Synergetics Inc. is a privately held, founder-controlled U.S. federal information technology services company headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado, founded in 1995. The firm designs, builds, and operates data management and logistics platforms for civilian and defense agencies, with the Department of Defense and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) as the anchor customer base. Core product offerings include the Integrated Mobile Database (IMD), which serves as the official catalog of record for more than 16 million DoD parts and products and supports an estimated 300,000 users and $400 billion in annual National Stock Number transactions, and OpenFLIS™, a cloud-based, microservices, FedRAMP JAB Moderate-authorized data cataloging, search, dissemination, and reporting platform built on Microsoft Azure with AI-powered natural language search. Adjacent offerings include ShakeMap (earthquake ground-motion mapping developed with the U.S. Geological Survey) and Indixium, plus professional services spanning cloud application development, technical architecture, database management, and FedRAMP migration.

The business generates revenue through software licensing, cloud/SaaS subscriptions, and professional services delivered to federal agencies under two principal procurement vehicles: the GSA IT MAS contract (47QTCA21D005F, awarded March 2021 and valid through February 2026) and, via the SG Tech, LLC joint venture with GSI Technologies, the GSA 8(a) STARS III Government-Wide Acquisition Contract, which carries a $50 billion program ceiling and supports sole-source awards. The company is SBA 8(a) certified, ISO 8000-110:2009 and ISO 9001:2015 certified, appraised at CMMI Level 3, and holds a FedRAMP Joint Authorization Board P-ATO, a credential held by fewer than 52 federal cloud service providers. The go-to-market combines direct contracting with federal buyers and a STARS III Industry Partners channel that lets larger primes team with Synergetics to access set-aside work.

Synergetics is led by CEO Rajiv Mehta, COO Kabir Mehta, and a Director of Finance with 22+ years of DCAA-compliant cost accounting experience, with no disclosed institutional investors, no acquisitions to date, and a single material joint venture. The firm has been recognized for Exceptional CPARS ratings in every performance category for more than 10 years, signals deep operational maturity on its incumbent programs, and is positioned to migrate its DLA logistics franchise onto the OpenFLIS cloud platform while extending the same FedRAMP-authorized data catalog capabilities to other federal tenants.

Scale indicators8 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights7 records

Emerging players

• Appian: Appian is a low-code application platform with a FedRAMP-authorized government cloud offering. It is comparable to OpenFLIS' dynamic data model and low-code configuration capabilities, though it targets a broader federal customer base rather than logistics specifically.

Direct peers

• ECS Federal: ECS Federal is a mid-sized government IT services and solutions provider serving DoD, intelligence, and civilian agencies with cloud, cybersecurity, and software engineering capabilities. It is one of the most direct comparables to Synergetics in scale, FedRAMP/IL execution, and federal prime contract posture.
• IntelliBridge: IntelliBridge provides federal IT services, data analytics, and mission-support solutions to DoD, intelligence, and civilian agencies. It is a comparable mid-sized government IT and platform delivery peer.
• Unison Technologies: Unison Technologies is a small-business federal IT services firm supporting DoD and civilian agencies with software, systems engineering, and managed services. It overlaps Synergetics in size, federal focus, and 8(a) contracting posture.
• Caelum Research Corporation: Caelum Research is a small-business federal IT services and software engineering firm supporting DoD and intelligence customers. It is comparable to Synergetics in size, set-aside participation, and mission-critical federal software delivery.

Broad incumbents

• Booz Allen Hamilton: Booz Allen is a top-tier federal IT and management consulting incumbent serving DoD, civilian, and intelligence agencies. It competes for the same federal logistics and cloud modernization work Synergetics targets, though from a much larger prime-contractor position.
• Perspecta / Peraton: Peraton (which absorbed Perspecta) is a large federal IT and mission solutions provider with strong DoD logistics, intelligence, and secure cloud capabilities. It is a competitor for the same large-scale federal cloud and logistics modernization work.
• ManTech International: ManTech (now part of Peraton/Carlyle portfolio historically) is a large government IT services firm with deep DoD logistics, intelligence, and cyber exposure. It is comparable to Synergetics in mission-critical DoD IT delivery but operates at materially greater scale and contract breadth.
• SAIC: SAIC is a large federal IT and engineering services provider supporting DoD logistics, digital modernization, and FedRAMP cloud platforms. It competes in the same DLA and broader DoD logistics space as Synergetics.
• Leidos: Leidos is a major federal systems integrator with extensive defense logistics, IT modernization, and FedRAMP cloud delivery capabilities. It is a direct competitor for DoD logistics re-competes that Synergetics also targets.
