First Division Consulting (FirstDiv) is an SBA-certified 8(a) and VA-verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business delivering professional technical services to the U.S. Department of Defense, federal agencies, and commercial clients. The firm is led by CEO Rue Flores and operates across program management, acquisition, integrated logistics, information technology, training, and continuous process improvement - essentially the full operational support stack for defense and government programs.
On the IT side, FirstDiv's work centers on networking elements across all echelons to support command decision-making - the kind of multi-layer connectivity that underpins C2 environments and forward-deployed operations. That sits alongside a logistics practice spanning the entire lifecycle, acquisition support running from requirements development through contracting, and training programs that range from online instruction to practical field exercises for military and government personnel. Specialty capabilities include explosive ordnance disposal support and field service representation - domains with serious technical depth and real operational stakes.
The firm's certifications - SBA 8(a) and Small Disadvantaged Business status in addition to its SDVOSB designation - make it a common fit for set-aside contracts and defense acquisition vehicles. Its client base spans DoD components, broader federal agencies, and commercial organizations, though the defense and military services market is clearly the core.
