Dynamis

What Dynamis does

Dynamis is a privately held government IT and professional services contractor founded in 2008 by John Braun and headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia. The firm delivers CBRNE defense, homeland security, law enforcement support, emergency preparedness and resilience, IT, compliance, and international services to federal, state, local, and international government agencies, supplemented by a small commercial customer base. Its operational core sits on Best-in-Class government-wide contract vehicles — OASIS+, HCaTS-U, GSA MAS, and agency-specific IDIQs — and on two large ceiling vehicles: the $8.27 billion JPEO-CBRND JE-RDAP and the $2.5 billion SeaPort Next Generation.

Dynamis' flagship proprietary product is the COBRA Emergency Management Software Suite, a cloud-based common operating picture platform that powers emergency operations centers for incident management, exercises, training, and real-world response. COBRA is FedRAMP certified, DHS SAFETY Act designated as qualified anti-terrorism technology, NIMS STEP compliant, and approved for hosting on Microsoft Azure Government and AWS GovCloud (DoD Cloud Security Model Levels 3-5). The firm is also ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2022 certified, is a Certified B Corporation, and operates a wholly-owned GDPR-compliant European subsidiary, Dynamis Europe, based in Belgium with presence in Germany.

The business model combines fee-for-service delivery on government contract vehicles with a subscription/SaaS revenue stream from COBRA. Pricing is governed by negotiated labor rates under GSA MAS and equivalent vehicles, while COBRA is sold to government and commercial customers on a recurring subscription basis. Customers include DoD components (DoW Office of Net Assessment, DTRA, Air Force, Navy, NGA), DHS components (CISA, ICE, FEMA, TSA, US Secret Service, Coast Guard), NASA, NATO, Belgium Ministry of Interior, the Government of Brazil, and commercial accounts such as Amtrak and Canadian Pacific Railroad. Customer logos indicate a founder-led, mission-driven professional services firm with significant IDIQ ceiling exposure and a small but proprietary software footprint.

Broad incumbents

• Leidos Holdings: Large federal IT and professional services prime with deep defense, intelligence, and homeland security work including CBRN defense. Overlaps with Dynamis across DoD, DHS, and intelligence community contracts but operates at significantly greater scale and breadth.

• SAIC: Federal IT and engineering services prime operating across defense, intelligence, and civilian agencies with comparable service offerings including program management, training, and emergency preparedness support. Competitively positioned on Best-in-Class vehicles and SeaPort NxG alongside Dynamis.
