Everyone Builds JVs. Few Win Like This. Inside Alpha Omega and OneZero’s $160M Coast Guard Cyber Award

Winning the recompete is one thing. Proving a joint venture can operate as one and earn the right to stay is something else entirely.

In this episode, we hear from two leaders who have seen firsthand what it actually takes to make that happen.

Just months removed from securing a $160 million U.S. Coast Guard IDIQ, a high-stakes recompete that reinforces both trust and performance at scale, Eric Laychock of Alpha Omega and Bob Burnett of OneZero Solutions pull back the curtain on how OneOmega operated as a truly integrated team when it mattered most.

They break down what changed operationally, from delivery discipline to governance to how teams execute day to day, and how those shifts translated into outcomes the Coast Guard could rely on.

We also get into what the government was really buying in this decision. Not just continuity, but reduced transition risk, proven performance, and a team ready to deliver from day one.

And then we go deeper into the work itself. What IA and RMF look like at enterprise scale in a maritime environment. How you stay audit-ready across shore, afloat, and deployable systems. And how you move security at mission tempo without slowing operators down.

Because the reality is, most joint ventures do not make it this far. This one did.

Let’s get into it.
