GovSmart is honored to announce that we have been accepted as a member of SOF RACER—USSOCOM’s new Rapid Acquisition Consortium for Emerging Requirements.

SOF RACER represents an important new pathway for connecting emerging technologies, operational requirements and rapid acquisition in support of the Special Operations Forces community.

For GovSmart, this opportunity aligns directly with how we support the mission: combining federal acquisition expertise, an extensive technology partner ecosystem, solution integration and disciplined ex*****on to turn urgent requirements into operational impact at the speed the mission demands.

We look forward to collaborating with USSOCOM, fellow consortium members, clients and technology partners to solve mission-critical challenges and accelerate integrated, mission-ready capabilities to the force.

Connect with our team to explore how we can work together to support upcoming Special Operations Forces mission requirements.

GovSmart is proud to support service members as they prepare for their next mission.

For our latest GovSmart SkillBridge Spotlight, we are pleased to welcome CW3 Brandon Mendez, who is transitioning from the U.S. Army after 20 years of service as a Signal Warrant Officer and senior communications leader.

Throughout his career, Brandon delivered and modernized mission-critical communications supporting tactical, joint, executive, and special operations forces—including assignments with the 25th Infantry Division, COMISAF/USFOR-A, U.S. Southern Command, the 75th Ranger Regiment, and the Joint Communications Support Element.

At GovSmart, Brandon is applying his operational experience and technical expertise to help defense customers translate complex mission requirements into practical technology solutions. He brings deep familiarity with DoD organizations, Army tactical formations, Combatant Commands, and the Special Operations community, along with extensive knowledge of tactical and expeditionary networks, RF communications, SATCOM, tactical edge connectivity, mission command systems, C4ISR, and ruggedized communications for austere and disconnected environments.

The entire GovSmart team is excited to welcome Brandon and look forward to the impact he will make throughout his SkillBridge experience and beyond.

The quantum threat isn’t waiting. Neither should your cybersecurity strategy.

GovSmart is proud to partner with Quantum XChange (QXC) to help federal agencies prepare their networks for the post-quantum era.

As quantum computing advances, organizations must protect sensitive data and communications from future quantum attacks and today’s “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” threat.

At the center of QXC’s approach is Phio TX®, a cryptographic management platform that strengthens existing network encryption while providing a practical path to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC).

Through our partnership with Quantum XChange, GovSmart helps government customers move from PQC planning to implementation—building quantum-ready networks to protect mission-critical data now and into the future.

Contact GovSmart to learn how Quantum XChange and Phio TX® can support your agency's post-quantum cybersecurity strategy. Quantum readiness starts now.

Twenty-five years later— September 11 remains forever marked in our memories and in our hearts.

For many of us, “Where were you on 9/11?” is the defining question of a generation. No matter how young we may have been, we remember the details of that morning with remarkable clarity— where we were, what we were doing, and the weight of what was unfolding.

Today, GovSmart joins our nation in remembering the lives lost and honoring the first responders, service members, government officials, and everyday Americans whose heroism and selflessness defined that day. We offer our deepest gratitude to those who carry that legacy forward through their continued dedication to serving and protecting our nation.

Twenty-five years later— We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
