What Softek does

Softek LLC is a privately held federal IT services and consulting firm founded in 2007 and headquartered in College Park, Maryland, with a secondary office in Rockville. The company delivers AI-powered technology modernization exclusively to U.S. federal civilian agencies — including NARA, SSA, HRSA, CMS, the Census Bureau, CDC, FDA, NIH, VA, BLS, and NLM — across six practice areas: AI & Intelligent Automation, Modern Applications, Cloud & Modernization, Data Intelligence, Mission Support, and Cybersecurity. Softek's track record includes one of the largest federal cloud migrations in history (900TB and 1 billion+ records to AWS GovCloud for NARA with zero data loss), consolidation of 54 SSA state disability systems into a single platform, and a 5.0 CPARS rating at HRSA for delivering five production applications in two years.

Softek's core product is the Axiom AI Delivery Platform, a proprietary multi-agent system that orchestrates eight specialized agents (xCapture for requirements, xArch for architecture, xBuild for development, xVerify for testing, xShield for security, xPulse for delivery, xCore for knowledge, xView for visibility) across the federal software development lifecycle, claiming up to 50% delivery acceleration while automating FISMA, FedRAMP, and Section 508 compliance. This is paired with the Insight Suite, a six-tool compliance and quality toolkit (TraceLink, RiskWatch, ClaritySense, SmartLogic, AccessAssure, CaseCraft AI). The platform integrates with AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, OpenAI, Anthropic, ServiceNow, and Databricks. No patents or in-house foundation models are disclosed; AI differentiation appears rooted in proprietary agent orchestration over third-party models.

Softek's revenue model is professional services delivered through federal procurement vehicles — GSA Multiple Award Schedule (Contract 47QTCA18D007G), SBA 8(a) sole-source awards up to $4.5M per engagement, and HUBZone set-asides — under T&M, fixed-price, and labor-hour contract structures. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISO 20000-1, and CMMI Level 3 certifications, has 11–50 employees, and is reported to operate at 90% employee retention. A Digital Next JV joint venture partnership supports pursuit of larger consortium opportunities.
