About
Who We Are
The team, the operating philosophy, and the federal-market focus behind Parabilis.
Parabilis is a specialist credit firm built around a single federal-market thesis: federal contracts are bankable instruments, and federal contractors deserve credit terms structured around them.
What we do
We extend working-capital credit to federal contractors through Federal Market Credit™, our structured lending product. The terms move with the contract — not with generic receivables formulas — so the credit availability matches how the contract actually performs.
Why the federal market
Federal contracting is one of the most consequential markets in the economy. It runs on multi-year awards, fixed budgets, and rigorous performance standards. That structure rewards specialist lenders who understand contract mechanics, not generalist lenders trying to make federal work fit into a small-business-loan box.
Who we work with
Our clients are federal prime contractors, integrators, subcontractors, and professional-services firms — typically in the $5M–$200M revenue band, often growing fast, always operating against real contract delivery deadlines. Some of our longest relationships started with a single $2M facility and have grown alongside the contractor across multiple awards.
By the numbers
What that looks like in practice
$1.7T+ — federal contract value evaluated across our pipeline.
100+ — active federal contractor relationships.
$5M+ — typical facility size, scaling with award activity.
