GCubed Expands DoD Presence with Web CoE Contract Win

Joint Service Provider (JSP) recently announced GCubed a successful awardee for their Web Center of Excellence (Web CoE) contract. The award amount totals $2,623,842.01. GCubed’s contract team will develop, implement, and continuously improve/upgrade the Web CoE with rapid development and associated services in support of JSP customers.

Vernon Green Jr., GCubed Founder and CEO, says, “As this was GCubed’s very first contract back in 2014, it feels like we have come full circle. The growth we have sustained all began with the Web CoE contract. Thank you to Glen Adams and Cogent Solutions for providing an opportunity.”

This new work follows two recent wins for the Stafford, VA based IT company this summer. GCubed was honored as the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce’s first-place Good Business of the Year in the small business category and ranked on the 2019 Inc. 500 list as the 386th fastest-growing privately owned company in America.

About JSP and Web CoE
JSP, an entity of the Washington Headquarters Service (DoD) resulting from the 2015 merger of two IT organizations, offers an all-inclusive end-to-end approach for providing web services through the Web CoE. This approach requires the Web CoE to be a self-contained entity capable executing and supporting all functions required to provide web services. JSP intends to offer the Web CoE to customers as a shared service model, allowing JSP to share the cost of the Web CoE services across multiple customers and reduce the cost for web services for each customer.

GCubed Makes the Inc. 5000 List!

GCubed, Inc. is honored to announce its placement on the list of the 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the United States. GCubed ranked 386th on the list. This achievement places the cybersecurity & IT firm among an elite group of businesses such as Microsoft, Timberland, Vizio, Intuit, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia who have made the Inc. 5000 list in the past.

Vernon Green Jr., Founder & CEO of GCubed, says, “We are humbled and honored to receive such a prestigious award. We continue to attribute our success to listening to the needs of our customers, staying at the forefront of technology, and most importantly, focusing on our organization’s greatest asset, our people!”

This latest achievement follows GCubed’s five-year anniversary and June 2019 first-place award in the Small Business category as the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce Good Business of the Year. This is GCubed’s first time appearing on the Inc. 5000 list.
