What GEM Technology does

GEM Technology International, Corp. is a privately held, SBA-certified woman-owned small business (WOSB/EDWOSB) headquartered in Miami, Florida, providing specialized safeguards and security, personnel security and investigations, insider threat/cybersecurity, engineering, emergency management preparedness, and program management services to U.S. federal government agencies. Founded in 1985 and refocused on federal contracting after 1992, GEM serves primarily the Department of Energy (DOE), National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Department of Homeland Security (DHS/ICE), Department of State (DoS), and National Security Agency (NSA), along with national laboratories including Oak Ridge, Lawrence Livermore, Sandia, Idaho, Los Alamos, Hanford, and Nevada Test Site, as well as nuclear weapons facilities such as Y-12 and Pantex. The company reports a workforce of approximately 175 to 200 employees and consultants with active federal security clearances and CISSP-certified cyber staff.

Technically, GEM's cybersecurity and insider threat offerings are built on integration of industry-standard security tooling — Snort IDS, SourceFire IDS, Blue Coat Security Analytics Platform, HBGary Active Defense, FireEye, and Host Based Security System (HBSS) modules — configured to NIST 800-53V4, NIST 800-171, and NISPOM 2 standards for Federal customers, with program development certified under Carnegie Mellon processes. Engineering services span electrical, mechanical, nuclear, biological/industrial, structural, and civil engineering for DOE facilities, while emergency management encompasses continuity-of-operations planning and critical infrastructure protection. Service delivery is organized into six integrated pillars: Safeguards & Security, Personnel Security & Investigations, Insider Threat/Cybersecurity, Engineering, Emergency Management Preparedness, and Program Management.

GEM operates a managed services and professional services revenue model under multi-year federal contracts, accessing buyers exclusively through government contract vehicles including GSA MAS Schedule 47QRAA22D008D, OASIS+, the $400M NNSA TEPS III BOA, DOE ICPT BOA, CNS Global Security BOA, DHS Technical Assistance Team, and a joint venture GSI-TS LLC for FBI work. Noteworthy contract awards include a second follow-on 5-year $400M NNSA TEPS III BOA (August 2022), a third follow-on $20M+ FBI security and access control contract (October 2023), a $36M DHS/ICE background investigation contract (July 2023), and a new Department of State $70M BOA for international security support (June 2025).
