Kevin Mackey
President, Epoch Concepts
Kevin Mackey’s biggest recent achievement was helping lead Epoch Concepts into record growth in all sectors of business in 2025.
That growth is reflected in recent deliveries supporting U.S. Space Force programs, the U.S. Navy’s Flank Speed initiative and the Department of Veterans Affairs’ consolidation efforts, along with the company’s award on the U.S. Army’s ITES-4H contract. The award expands Epoch Concepts’ ability to deliver mission-critical IT solutions at scale across the Army.
The ITES-4H win underscores the government’s trust in Epoch Concepts to provide secure, efficient and agile technology support and positions the company for sustained impact in modernizing defense IT operations.
“Kevin has led Epoch Concepts’ growth across both federal and commercial markets, leveraging deep expertise in cybersecurity, AI, and defense and intelligence communities to meet evolving customer needs. His leadership continues to position the company for long-term, sustainable growth,” said Marcus Smiley, Epoch Concepts CEO and founder.
Epoch Concepts aligns closely with the administration’s priorities by delivering scalable IT solutions that reduce redundancy, speed deployment and improve operational efficiency across government environments. Through contracts such as ITES-4H, the company helps agencies consolidate systems, modernize legacy infrastructure and adopt secure, cost-effective technologies without compromising mission performance.
Epoch Concepts’ veteran-led, execution-focused culture emphasizes accountability, fiscal discipline and measurable outcomes for taxpayers.
Why Watch
In 2025, Mackey has been heavily focused on growing his team with an ultimate goal to double the sales force and engineering staff and expand into new territories. With this company growth, they will leverage AI to automate internal processes, allowing the team to do more with less and improve operational efficiency while delivering unparalleled communication with customers and vendor partners for the entire cycle from discovery to delivery of integrated solutions.
“Real achievements are driven by teams committed to mission and execution that reflects a deep understanding of the customers’ operations and challenges,” Mackey said. “Our focus remains on delivering trusted solutions that help government agencies operate more efficiently and securely.”
Fun fact: Outside of work, Mackey is active in community service. He supports the Denver Rescue Mission, which helps people experiencing homelessness through drug rehabilitation and job training programs. He also supports Volley4Charity, which raises funds for local charities, and serves as co-chair of GovEvolve, an organization that supports small businesses in the federal space and advocates for policies that benefit smaller companies.
