About the company

The net.America Corporation manages grant programs, modernizes IT and case management systems, and runs contact centers for federal, defense and state government agencies. Federal clients such as FEMA, HUD and HHS use it to track how grant money is spent and meet reporting rules, while state clients use it for public health reporting. Its workforce development division helps employers and schools design registered apprenticeship programs that pair paid jobs with classroom instruction. Agencies pay the company under government contracts and task orders for program management, software development and help desk support. The company was founded in 2000 and is headquartered in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Some roles sit inside a federal lab: net.America has supported EPA lab IT at Fort Meade, Maryland, since 2018.
  • Leadership is long-tenured: net.America's founder still serves as CEO, and its chief information officer joined in 2007.
  • Workforce staff have partnered with colleges: net.America helped Jarvis Christian University, a historically Black university in Texas, build apprenticeship pathways.

What critics are saying

  • Its Labor Department apprenticeship contract has ended: federal award data shows it ran from September 2020 to March 2026.
  • Prime work is concentrated: federal prime award data shows one active net.America contract order, running through February 2027.
  • Academy roles were grant-backed: net.America's Labor Department grant for its Job Corps IT academy pilot ended March 2026.

What makes The Net America unique

  • Set-aside contracts are open to it: the Small Business Administration certifies net.America as an economically disadvantaged woman-owned business.
  • Agencies order through standing contracts: its GSA schedule runs to April 2031, and it holds two OASIS+ services awards.
  • Its books meet federal audit rules: net.America says the Defense Contract Audit Agency has audited its accounting systems.
