In August, the all-small business Joint Venture, Aptilex, LLC, of which CSS is a member and lead venturer, was awarded a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Contract. The schedule is for 5 years, with 3 5-year options for a total possible performance period of 20 years. Aptilex consists of 4 small businesses, CSS, ClearFocus Technologies (CFT), Kalani Consulting, and Triumph Enterprises. CSS and CFT are both HUBZone Certified Small Businesses and Kalani and Triumph are both Small Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). By joining forces, we will be able to pursue, and hopefully win, opportunities we would not be able to pursue and win on our own.
