What Semper Valens Solutions does

Semper Valens Solutions, Inc. is a privately held, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) founded in 2014 by Scott Balmos, a former US Reconnaissance Marine with nearly 30 years of DoD technical and managerial experience. The company, headquartered just outside San Antonio, Texas, delivers systems engineering, DevSecOps infrastructure and deployment, software and web development, enterprise/cloud IT operations and sustainment, cybersecurity services aligned to RMF/ISO 27001/CMMC, and project/program management. Service delivery is structured around CMMI Level 3 processes, ISO 9001:2015 quality management, ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018 IT service management, and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 information security, and is governed by a leadership team dominated by former military officers and cleared acquisition professionals.

The firm serves exclusively US federal customers across three primary markets: the Department of Defense (US Army, Air Force, DISA, and supporting work for Navy/USMC via SeaPort NxG), Federal Health (Defense Health Agency, Department of Veterans Affairs), and Federal Law Enforcement/Civil (FBI through ITSSS-2, plus broader government-wide access through GSA OASIS+ and GSA MAS). Named engagements include DevSecOps infrastructure design for DISA Services Directorate, cyber weapons system development for the Air Force Cryptologic Group, force protection and C2 systems engineering for Army CPE, management of VA data centers, and performance management support to the VA Office of Performance and Analytics.

Revenue is generated through negotiated, time-and-materials and cost-plus task orders awarded under multi-billion-dollar federal IDIQ contract vehicles. Go-to-market is sales-led enterprise field selling into federal program offices, supported by association memberships (CDCA, AUSA, AFCEA, NVDBC) and content marketing. The company reports 101–250 employees, operations in 22+ states, and three principal offices plus distributed leadership in Northern Virginia and Sierra Vista, Arizona, with no disclosed private equity, venture, or parent company ownership.
