Sawdey Solution Services

What Sawdey Solution Services does

Sawdey Solution Services is a privately held federal government contractor founded in April 2001 by Connie and Jeff Sawdey, headquartered in Beavercreek, Ohio. The company provides premier professional services and technology solutions to the Department of War, Department of Homeland Security, and other federal civilian agencies, organized around five core service lines: Cybersecurity and IT (threat assessments, RMF analysis, SecDevOps, SCIF support), Operations (joint operation planning, wargaming, C5ISR, logistics, threat reduction), Engineering and Technical Support (full systems lifecycle across mechanical, civil, and weapons systems), Managed Services via the MSD subsidiary (MSP/MSSP for DIB contractors, municipalities, and non-profits), and CMMC Services (advisory and certification support across 110 controls and 320 assessment objectives).

The firm's underlying technology stack is composed of compliance frameworks (NIST, CMMC, RMF), managed IT/cybersecurity tooling, and resale partnerships with hardware and software vendors (Datto, Dell, SonicWall, Synology, Microsoft, Cisco, Veeam, Arcserve, AvePoint, Spanning). Sawdey itself holds CMMC Level 2 Third-party Assessed Certification, ISO 9001, 14001, 20000-1, and 27001 certifications, and CMMI-SVC Level 3 appraisal, and operates in-house CMMC Certified Assessors and Professionals.

Sawdey monetizes almost exclusively through federal procurement vehicles. It is a prime contractor on six major IDIQ contracts: OASIS+ Unrestricted (through 2034), GSA PSS, GSA IT Schedule 70, DLA JETS 2.0, SeaPort NxG, and Texas DIR. Revenue is generated via task order awards on these vehicles — historically accumulating $500M+ across 104 prime task orders on OASIS Small Business over six years. Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward DoD and federal civilian agencies, with supplemental commercial revenue from MSD and DIB advisory work. The company is a Woman-Owned/Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business with 350+ employees and a third regional office in O'Fallon, Illinois, operating as an independent entity with no external private equity or venture capital funding.
