Westway Enterprises

What Westway Enterprises does

Westway Enterprises is a privately held U.S. provider of accredited secure facilities and related services for the national security market. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Herndon, Virginia, the company operates a SCIF-as-a-Service platform delivering ICD 705-compliant Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities across five U.S. locations (Herndon, Chantilly, Aurora, St. Louis, and a forthcoming Huntsville site). The platform bundles accredited physical workspace with embedded IT infrastructure, secure communications systems, classified and unclassified networks, cleared support personnel, and continuous monitoring, enabling clients to occupy secure facilities within roughly one week rather than undertaking multi-year construction projects.

The company's product portfolio comprises four offerings: (1) SCIF-as-a-Service, a monthly subscription product ranging from individual workstations to full enterprise deployments; (2) Custom SCIF Construction, a project-based service for purpose-built accredited facilities; (3) Security & IT Integration, professional services for classified environments; and (4) Secure Cloud Connect, a partnership-enabled service providing accelerated access to AWS Top Secret cloud, claiming onboarding time reductions exceeding 70 percent. All facilities are constructed and maintained to ICD 705 and applicable federal security standards.

Westway serves three primary customer segments — U.S. Intelligence Community agencies, defense contractors (including non-traditional primes), and cleared technology companies — through a direct enterprise sales motion. The company is conflict-free by design, meaning it does not compete with its tenants' core missions. Revenue is generated through recurring subscriptions (SCIF-as-a-Service), project-based construction contracts, and professional services. The company is led by a recently appointed CEO (Robert J. Miller III, effective February 2026) whose prior firm SilverEdge Government Solutions was sold to SAIC in 2025, suggesting an M&A-oriented growth posture. Strategic partnerships with Amazon Web Services and ACMI Properties (both announced September 2025) extend the platform into classified cloud and secure advanced manufacturing verticals.
