Need something specific?

We also build custom tools and firm-fixed-price prototypes. One scope, one price, delivered in weeks. Smaller fixed-scope work can be paid by Government purchase card. Separately, Relay may pursue SBIR/STTR topics once SAM.gov registration is Active; SBIR is not a micro-purchase.

Core competencies

  • Acquisition software that cites the governing FAR/DFARS text & GAO
  • AI document search, summarization & Q&A
  • Workflow automation & custom web apps
  • Data engineering, migration & dashboards
  • Rapid firm-fixed-price prototyping
  • Secure deployment to customer environments

Differentiators

  • Wholly owned and managed by a service-disabled veteran. Not SBA-certified as VOSB or SDVOSB.
  • Firm-fixed-price, 2–4 week sprints
  • Accepts the Government purchase card (GSA SmartPay), preferred for micro-purchases (FAR 13.201); general threshold $15,000 (FAR 2.101)
  • Delivery can be scoped to NIST SP 800-171 controls when the contract requires it (no SPRS score or CMMC certification claimed)
  • Data rights follow the clauses in each contract. On DoD other-than-commercial software, DFARS 252.227-7014 (and 252.227-7013 for technical data) set Government license rights by funding source; commercial items are treated separately (DFARS 252.227-7015). Civilian contracts typically use FAR Part 27 / 52.227-14. Relay asserts restricted or commercial rights in pre-existing components only as the applicable clause allows.

NAICS codes (2022)

  • 541511Custom Computer Programming Services (primary)
  • 541512Computer Systems Design Services
  • 541519Other Computer Related Services
  • 513210Software Publishers

PSC codes

  • DA01IT and Telecom – Business Application/Application Development Support Services (Labor)
  • DA10IT and Telecom – Business Application/Application Development Software as a Service

Small business under 13 CFR part 121 for the NAICS codes listed (self-representation; size is determined at offer against the solicitation NAICS). SBA VetCert has not been submitted; Relay is not eligible for SDVOSB set-asides, sole-source awards, or SDVOSB goaling credit until SBA certifies the firm and SAM shows that designation.
