About:

StickyOps was founded by Chris Quiocho, a U.S. Army combat veteran with 16 years of distinguished service. Chris flew UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters and deployed to Afghanistan, where he conducted combat MEDEVAC missions under some of the most demanding operational conditions.

After transitioning from full-time military service, Chris brought the discipline, leadership, and operational clarity forged in combat to the civilian sector—building technology companies focused on aviation and government modernization.

StickyOps is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) dedicated to building secure, mission-critical software for federal, state, and local agencies.

Mission:

Our mission is to equip government operators with technology that strengthens institutions, enhances decision-making, and delivers measurable outcomes to the American public.

Service to the Public Mission

We build technology in service of the American public. Our work exists to strengthen public institutions, support critical missions, and uphold the trust placed in government systems.

Our Values

Outcome Accountability

We are accountable for results, not just deliverables. Success is measured by operational improvement, decision quality, reliability, and real-world impact—not by activity alone.

Technology That Strengthens Institutions

We design and integrate technology that reinforces—not disrupts—the institutions responsible for governance, safety, and public service. Modernization should increase resilience, continuity, and confidence.

Integrity and Transparency

We operate with honesty, discipline, and transparency in all engagements. We communicate clearly, manage risk responsibly, and honor commitments to our clients and partners.

Operational Excellence

We deliver high-quality, secure, and maintainable software engineered for scale, compliance, and long-term use. Reliability, performance, and security are foundational—not optional.

Collaborative by Design

We work effectively across agencies, vendors, and teams. Clear communication, mutual respect, and shared ownership are essential to delivering complex systems.
