About Opsidian

Built to Protect the Warfighter. Engineered for Federal Compliance.

Opsidian is a mission-driven joint venture formed by ByLight Professional IT Services and Coleson Corporation to deliver secure, resilient IT, cybersecurity, and program support solutions to the United States Department of Defense and federal agencies. Created to combine enterprise-scale infrastructure strength with precision-driven execution, Opsidian operates at the intersection of operational discipline, technical excellence, and regulatory alignment.

The foundation of Opsidian blends the infrastructure capabilities and large-program experience of ByLight with Coleson Corporation’s agility, documentation rigor, and socioeconomic qualifications. This structure enables Opsidian to provide scalable, enterprise-grade solutions while maintaining the responsiveness and direct leadership access of a focused small business. The result is a delivery model designed for federal environments where compliance, security, and execution precision are non-negotiable.

Opsidian exists to protect the warfighter, empower federal missions, and uphold the highest standards of integrity across every engagement. Our mission is to deliver secure, forward-leaning technology solutions that safeguard national interests while ensuring audit-ready, compliance-first execution. We fuse infrastructure strength with disciplined governance frameworks to protect sensitive systems, empower federal decision-makers, and advance defense objectives in complex operational environments.

As both a Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB) and HUBZone-certified contractor, Opsidian provides agencies and prime contractors with meaningful socioeconomic advantages. This dual certification enables eligibility for set-aside and sole-source contracts while supporting federal small business participation goals. For prime contractors, Opsidian strengthens bid strategies by delivering compliant technical depth alongside valuable socioeconomic alignment.

Opsidian maintains a vetted, security-cleared workforce capable of operating in classified and controlled environments. Security is embedded into our operational approach from initial design through deployment and sustainment. Our delivery model aligns with FAR, DFARS, NIST cybersecurity controls, CMMC requirements, Zero Trust architecture principles, and DCAA audit expectations. Compliance is not layered on after implementation—it is engineered into every phase of execution.

Unlike large integrators constrained by bureaucracy, Opsidian is structured to pivot quickly, tailor solutions to mission realities, and provide direct access to decision-makers. This balance of agility and enterprise backing enables us to deliver complex federal technology programs with clarity, transparency, and operational precision.

Our core capability areas include C5ISR solutions, cyberspace operations, modeling and simulation training systems, unmanned aerial systems support, and digital modernization services. Across each domain, our focus remains constant: mission reliability, security integrity, and regulatory alignment.

Opsidian was built as a long-term federal partner, not a transactional vendor. We are structured for sustained growth, expanding contract vehicles, and evolving mission requirements while maintaining the discipline and compliance standards expected in national defense environments. Every engagement reflects our commitment to protecting sensitive systems, supporting operational readiness, and delivering measurable mission impact.
