The company delivers healthcare technology, IT modernization, and management consulting services to US federal agencies, with a clear primary focus on the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), where it has executed more than 70 task orders and manages 42 active prime engagements. Service offerings span four pillars — Technology Services (IT modernization, cloud, DevSecOps, cybersecurity), Professional Services (management consulting, program management, enterprise architecture), Products and Solutions (healthcare IT, electronic health records support, medical coding), and Business Process Outsourcing (call center, help desk, records management) — and include proprietary modules such as the LEAF low-code/no-code workflow platform (deployed to 310,000 VA users for COVID-19 vaccine tracking) and the TeleCare Companion virtual patient observation solution delivered with AvaSure. Sierra7 operates as a prime contractor on a broad portfolio of pre-competed federal vehicles including VA T4NG and T4NG2 ($22B and $60.7B ceilings), VHA-IHT ($1B), MDA SHIELD ($151B), GSA VETS2, CIO-SP3, SEWP V, OASIS+, and GSA MAS, augmented by subcontractor partnerships with Optum, AvaSure, Iron Bow, and Mobomo, and a mentor-protégé joint venture (Zetta Solutions with GigaTECH).

The company holds CMMI-SVC Level 3 (consecutive appraisals through February 2027), ISO 9001:2015, ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 20000-1, and O-TTPS certifications, and is an AWS Select Partner. Revenue is generated through professional services engagements delivered as labor-rate-based task orders (e.g., CIO-SP3) and firm-fixed-price work under federal IDIQ and BPA vehicles, with no public revenue disclosure available. Headcount is in the 51-100 range and the company has been recognized on the Inc. 5000 (2022, 2023), Vet100 (2022, 2023), 2026 Elev8 GovCon, and the HIRE Vets Medallion Award program (Gold 2024, Platinum 2025). Recent strategic emphasis includes expansion into DoD/missile defense via MDA SHIELD, broadening civilian agency access via OASIS+, and the creation of senior leadership roles dedicated to AI-driven digital transformation in federal health services.
