Rally Point Management

What Rally Point Management does

Rally Point Management, LLC (RPM) is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) founded in 2006 and headquartered in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, in proximity to Eglin Air Force Base. The company delivers specialized military training and engineering services to the U.S. Department of Defense, the United States Air Force, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), and Special Tactics Squadrons (STSs). Its core offerings span Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and Joint Fires Observer (JFO) instruction, Small Unmanned Aircraft System (SUAS) operator training, tactical combat training (including the Air Commando Field Skills Course), simulator training support, Battlefield Air Operations (BAO) product development, and Electronic Warfare engineering services supporting USAF mission data software for Air Force and allied-nation aircraft. Approximately 88% of its 101–250 employees are veterans, with leadership drawn from Special Operations and Electronic Warfare communities. CEO Chris Crutchfield is a career Special Tactics Combat Controller and President Brett Verzwyvelt is an Electronic Warfare Subject Matter Expert.

RPM's service portfolio also includes subject-matter-expert testing and analysis for Special Operations Forces (SOF) equipment development, field evaluations, software development, and Tactics, Techniques, and Procedure (TTP) evaluations in support of AFRL. Its Battlefield Air Operations team communicates warfighter requirements to product developers, develops training material, distributes equipment, and conducts training at Special Tactics Squadrons worldwide.

Commercially, RPM operates as a government contractor acquiring work through direct engagement with DoD program offices and USAF agencies. Revenue is generated exclusively through professional services contracts — training delivery, engineering support, program management, and R&D — won via bids and negotiated awards rather than published pricing. The company deploys Mobile Training Teams globally (CONUS and OCONUS), holds no disclosed funding rounds or external institutional backing, and is founder/management-owned. Its distribution is wholly direct-to-government, with no third-party resellers, and its go-to-market relies on subject-matter credibility and SDVOSB contracting status rather than traditional sales-and-marketing channels.

Broad incumbents

• SAIC: SAIC delivers training, EW, and mission engineering services across DoD, including USAF and SOF programs. As a large prime with broad portfolio coverage, SAIC is the kind of incumbent that RPM either competes against on smaller awards or partners with as a sub on larger vehicles.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Booz Allen Hamilton provides large-scale defense training, analytics, and engineering to DoD including USAF and SOF customers. It is a broad incumbent across RPM's end markets and frequently competes as a prime where RPM serves as a subcontractor.
• Leidos: Leidos is a top-tier DoD prime that delivers integrated training solutions, EW, and special operations support across the full military services market. RPM competes against Leidos teams on JTAC/SUAS/EW opportunities, while Leidos also serves as a typical incumbent on large IDIQ vehicles RPM may flow down from.

Direct peers

• COLSA Corporation: COLSA is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business providing engineering, training, and IT services to DoD, particularly Air Force customers. It is comparable in size and customer overlap with RPM, delivering training and EW-related engineering support.
• OBXtek: OBXtek provides IT, training, and program management services to DoD, with a strong USAF and special operations footprint. Its training and engineering services delivery closely mirrors RPM's DoD services portfolio and customer set.
• K2 Solutions: K2 Solutions is an SDVOSB providing special operations training, JTAC instruction, and tactical training services to USSOCOM and conventional forces. It is one of the closest functional mirrors to RPM, operating in the same SOF training niche with mobile training teams and veteran-led delivery.
• DCS Corporation: DCS Corporation provides technical engineering and program management support to Army aviation, special operations, and EW customers. It overlaps with RPM's EW engineering and AFRL/R&D-adjacent work and serves similar DoD program offices.
• MAG Aerospace: MAG Aerospace provides special operations aviation support, training, and ISR services globally to DoD. It competes with RPM for special operations training and tactical aviation support contracts and operates a similar deployable team model.
• SOC LLC (Special Operations Command Contractor Support): SOC LLC delivers special operations training, intelligence support, and tactical communications to DoD customers. It competes with RPM for SOF training and JTAC-related work and uses a similarly veteran-heavy delivery model.
• CALIBRE Systems: CALIBRE provides defense and homeland security consulting, training, and systems engineering to federal customers. It overlaps with RPM in DoD training delivery and SETR-style program support work, with comparable size and customer base.
