What Dextera Corporation does

Dextera Corporation is a woman-owned Small Disadvantaged Business headquartered in Centreville, Virginia, founded in 2005 to deliver professional services to U.S. federal agencies. The firm operates across four functional areas — Program Management, Records Management, Quality Assurance, and Industrial Facilities Management — and supports a customer roster that includes DHS, USCIS, FEMA, DoD/NAVSEA, the Army, USPTO, the VA, DHS ICE, and VBA. With 75+ employees operating in 14 states plus the District of Columbia, Dextera has scaled beyond its original NAVSEA industrial facilities scope to large-scale records-digitization engagements, including the digitization of more than 60 million immigration records for USCIS and more than 8 million records for ICE.

The company's revenue model is built on federal contract vehicles. Dextera holds GSA MAS #GS-03F-103CA (extended through September 2030), GSA OASIS+SB #47QRCA25DS735 (through December 2029), and GSA OASIS+WOSB #47QRCA24DW264 (through September 2029), enabling access to task-order work across federal civilian and DoD clients. It is ISO 9001:2015 certified and holds SBA 8(a), Small Disadvantaged Business, and Women-Owned Small Business designations that support set-aside capture. The firm is privately held as a Subchapter S corporation, with Kathryn Daut serving as President and CEO and majority owner since January 2008, and founder Lincoln Daut acting as a technical advisor.

Dextera is a labor-driven professional services firm with no proprietary technology platform. Revenue is generated through time-and-materials and fixed-price task orders on federal contracts, with pricing tied to cleared-labor and program-management rate structures. The business model is essentially a small-business federal services prime contracting operation, monetizing set-aside eligibility, multi-vehicle access, and incumbent past performance on long-running agency programs.

Broad incumbents

Its federal services portfolio overlaps with Dextera's industrial facility management, defense acquisition support, and program management offerings.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Booz Allen Hamilton is a leading federal management and technology consulting firm with a strong DHS, VA, and DoD presence. It is a broad incumbent competitor to Dextera for management consulting and program management work, though at enterprise scale.
• ICF International: ICF International is a publicly traded management consulting and digital services firm with deep federal civilian agency presence (including DHS, FEMA, and HHS). It competes with Dextera for program management and records management work but is several orders of magnitude larger in scale and revenue.

Like Dextera, it competes on management consulting, program management, and quality assurance task orders via GSA and OASIS vehicles, with a similar size and small-business positioning.
