What TSTC does

TSTC (Total Systems Technologies Corporation) is a privately held federal services contractor founded in 2002 by Christine Podracky and headquartered in Arlington, Virginia. The firm operates as an SBA-certified HUBZone small business and Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB), status that grants it access to set-aside and sole-source federal procurement vehicles. TSTC delivers six core professional service lines to federal agencies: Cybersecurity and Risk Management, Data Analytics and Visualization, Intelligence and Analysis, Program and Acquisition Management, Digital Transformation and Cloud Modernization, and Financial Management and Internal Control. Service delivery is anchored by the proprietary T-IMSFactory methodology and supported by an extensive compliance posture including ISO 9001, 14001, 20000-1, 27001, 27017, 27018, and 27701 certifications, plus CMMI SVC and DEV Maturity Level 3 appraisals and CMMC-AB Registered Provider Organization status.

TSTC generates revenue through professional services contracts awarded via government procurement channels, primarily through three GSA vehicles: GSA Multiple Award Schedule (GS-00F-081CA, valid March 2025 to March 2030), GSA OASIS+ (Small Business, WOSB, and HUBZone pools), and GSA Polaris GWAC via the TotalSev1 Solutions joint venture with Sev1Tech. Past performance and CPARS-rated deliveries span DHS components (TSA, USCG, CBP, USSS, USCIS), HHS, Treasury (including FINCEN), Army, Navy, USDA, USPTO, and US Census. Leadership is led by Christine Podracky (CEO, BS Chemistry, William & Mary; PMP, CISM, CGEIT, CRISC certifications) and Mark Podracky (COO/CRO, MS Systems Engineering, UVA; extensive federal security credentials and creator of the first C&A in DHS). The company is privately held, founder-owned, and bootstrapped with no institutional funding disclosed, reporting growth from a $5,000 first contract in 2002 to a multi-million dollar operation.

Business operations are concentrated in professional services delivery to the U.S. federal government, with no disclosed commercial or international revenue. Pricing is task-order based under negotiated GSA rates and is not publicly disclosed. Customer engagement runs through enterprise field sales and GSA contract vehicles rather than traditional marketing channels, leveraging HUBZone and WOSB set-aside eligibility, deep federal institutional relationships, and a small, highly credentialed employee base (firmographic range 11-50).
