(SCI), a VA VetBiz-verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, and Blazar Technology Solutions. The company provides IT products, services, and procurement support to U.S. federal government agencies, operating as a prime contract holder on the NASA SEWP V Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) under contract number NNG15SD70B, a multi-award IDIQ vehicle with a $20 billion ceiling valid through September 30, 2026. Standard-Blazar connects federal agencies with a curated network of more than 90 OEMs, VARs, and product/service distributors drawn from a pool of over 60,000 qualified providers, and reports serving more than 60 federal agencies since 2019.

The company's core offering is facilitating procurement of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) ICT/AV products and product-based services, including servers, laptops, tablets, imaging devices, displays, and installation/deployment services. It supplements this with proprietary SEWP Tools, an automated platform that handles Technical Refresh creation, enhanced error checking, and duplicate CLIN resolution, along with project management services delivered through 24/7 phone support, dedicated service intake email with automated ticket creation, and a web portal. The company also lists access to additional federal contract vehicles beyond SEWP V, including SAM.gov, ITES-SW2, ITES 4H, NIH CIO-CS, SEC BOA, SBA-8(a), and HUBZone.

Standard-Blazar generates revenue through transaction-based fees on completed SEWP V orders, with the program-level surcharge fixed at 0.34% of order value (included in product pricing and not separately itemized on quotes). Its go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales, engaging federal contracting officers and program offices through the SEWP program infrastructure and dedicated intake contacts. The company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado, led by CEO John P. Molière and a partner team drawn from both JV parents, and is privately held with no institutional investment identified in source materials.
