Most businesses for sale have at least one thing working against them.

A key person dependency. A declining revenue trend. A client concentration problem. A lease that does not transfer cleanly. Something.

This one does not.

We are offering for sale a federal IT consulting and software development firm based in Rockville Maryland — operating fully remotely — with characteristics that are genuinely rare in the acquisition market.

Here is what makes it exceptional.

——

The revenue is 100% contracted and recurring.

Not mostly recurring. Not primarily recurring. One hundred percent. Every dollar of income flows from executed multi-year government subcontracts billed weekly at net 30. There is zero project-based income. Zero transactional income. Zero variability from month to month.

$3.4 million in trailing revenue. $1.2 million in normalized EBITDA. A 35.5% margin. Growing at 13.8% compound annual rate since 2022 — with no sales staff, no marketing budget, and no dedicated business development function of any kind.

——

The Top Secret facility clearance is entity-tied and transfers with the business.

This is the single most valuable and difficult-to-replicate asset in this listing. A Top Secret facility clearance tied to the corporate entity — not to an individual — transfers to the buyer in a stock purchase. Obtaining one independently takes years and requires active government sponsorship. It cannot be rushed. It cannot be bought. It can only be earned over time — and this business has already earned it.

——

The contract runway is long.

Primary subcontracts extend multiple years. A recently awarded contract vehicle includes option periods extending into the early 2030s. The revenue visibility here is extraordinary by any standard.

——

The owner is ready — but not in a hurry.

After more than 20 years in federal IT consulting the owner is pursuing other career interests. There is no distress here. No urgency driven by circumstance. The owner is approaching this sale from a position of stability and is committed to full continuity for clients and employees. The owner is willing to remain post-close as a billable technical contributor — generating revenue for the business during the transition period.

——

The credentials are real and active.

Top Secret Facility Clearance (entity-tied). Active CAGE Code. GSA Schedule IT-70. Navy SeaPort NxG. Adobe Solutions Partner (Federal). DOJ Past Performance with 3-4 recent references at scale.

These are not aspirational. They are active and transferable.

——

⚠️ IOI Deadline: July 3, 2026 — serious inquiries should not wait.

Vista Business Group is handling the sale. A confidentiality agreement is required for full financials and additional details.

In the complex world of government procurement, where precision, compliance, and clarity are paramount, professionals like Zoe Carll make all the difference. As a Business Development (BD) Capture Analyst at Tria Federal, Zoe works at the heart of the federal contracting process—bridging strategic planning and tactical execution to help her team identify, pursue, and win government opportunities.

Her role may be behind the scenes, but its impact is felt across the organization. Through research, coordination, and proposal development, Zoe ensures that Tria Federal’s responses to government solicitations are not only compliant but compelling.

Navigating the Procurement Process

Government procurement is a highly regulated and competitive process. Agencies must follow strict rules when acquiring goods and services, and contractors must follow equally strict procedures to be considered. That’s where Zoe comes in.

From the moment a federal Request for Proposal (RFP) drops, Zoe supports the team in interpreting requirements, coordinating internal resources, and organizing the work needed to produce a compliant, high-quality submission. Her knowledge of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), procurement lifecycles, and technical writing practices helps her guide the proposal process efficiently and effectively.

“No two solicitations are the same,” Zoe explains. “My job is to help the team understand what’s being asked, what the client truly needs, and how we can deliver a solution that stands out.”

The Importance of Clarity and Compliance

In federal contracting, proposals must be both persuasive and precise. Compliance is not optional; it's the baseline. A single formatting error, missing section, or vague response can disqualify a submission.

Zoe takes this responsibility seriously. She supports the development of detailed compliance matrices, outlines, and checklists to ensure every section is accounted for. But she also goes a step further—working closely with subject matter experts to ensure that technical and management content is clearly articulated and aligns with the customer’s mission.

“Compliance gets you through the door, but clarity wins the evaluation,” she says. “Our goal is to make the evaluator’s job easy—to give them confidence in our ability to deliver.”

Strategic Support Behind Every Win

Beyond writing and editing, Zoe plays a strategic role in helping her team qualify opportunities and shape messaging from the outset. She supports capture efforts by conducting opportunity research, analyzing competitor positioning, and helping to define key win themes.

She understands that strong proposals don’t happen in the final days—they’re built from the ground up, starting with strategic insight and early collaboration.

By asking thoughtful questions and pushing for early alignment, Zoe ensures that each proposal not only meets requirements but also reflects a deeper understanding of the agency’s goals.

Collaboration at the Core

A standout feature of Zoe’s work is her collaborative style. Government contracting involves cross-functional coordination—from capture managers and solution architects to pricing analysts and graphic designers. Zoe’s role requires her to synthesize input from across the organization and maintain consistency in tone, structure, and messaging.

“She’s the steady force during chaotic times,” notes a colleague. “No matter how many moving parts there are, Zoe keeps us focused, clear, and on track.”

Whether she’s leading a content review or helping teammates interpret complex instructions, Zoe is known for her calm professionalism and proactive communication.

A Mission-Driven Approach

For Zoe, the work is about more than just compliance checkboxes. It’s about contributing to efforts that make a difference—whether that’s supporting veterans, modernizing public health systems, or advancing national cybersecurity.

She finds meaning in helping government agencies find the right partners to fulfill their missions. “Behind every proposal is a real-world problem,” she says. “If our response helps solve that problem, then it’s a win—whether or not it results in a contract.”

Looking Forward

Zoe continues to grow in her role, constantly learning from every submission and refining her approach to proposal development. Her growth mindset, combined with a strong foundation in technical writing and business development, positions her as an emerging leader in the field.
