One company is all money, no visas. The other is all visas, no money.
Earlier reports in this series examined Take2 Consulting, LLC and Raas Infotek LLC separately. Looking at them side by side reveals something neither report could show alone: they sit on opposite sides of the exact same disclosure boundary.
Vienna, VA
Newark, DE
Take2 is a confirmed participant in federal IT delivery — $512 million says so — but its H-1B record is blank. Raas Infotek is a confirmed, ranked H-1B sponsor with documented federal-adjacent placements (more on that below) — but its federal-spending record is blank. Both gaps are real. Neither is a research failure. Both are structural.
Two disclosure systems, neither designed to talk to the other
NOT DISCLOSED TO USASPENDING
NOT DISCLOSED ON LCA
An LCA discloses who is sponsoring a worker's visa, what they're paid, and where they'll physically work — it does not disclose which company that worker is actually doing the work for, or how that company is being paid. A subaward record discloses which company received federal money one tier down from the prime — it does not disclose whether that company, or any company further down the chain, subcontracts the work again, and to whom.
The original question was: if Raas Infotek is sponsoring H-1B workers, where does its revenue come from, and can we find a "check register" showing who pays it? The honest answer is that no such register exists — not because it's hidden, but because payments between private companies for staffing services are not government transactions and are not subject to any federal disclosure requirement, regardless of whether the ultimate end client is a federal contractor working on a taxpayer-funded program. The government doesn't process, record, or require reporting of that payment, even in principle.
Raas Infotek: a documented IT staffing model, an undocumented client list
Raas Infotek LLC (UEI JVTCJG5TWF67, CAGE 84J75) is headquartered at 262 Chapman Road, Suite 105A, Newark, Delaware, registered under NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services). The company describes itself, in its own words, as providing "end-to-end business solutions" and being able to "provide consultants for heterogenic assignments" — standard language in the IT staffing ("body shop") industry, where a firm's core business is recruiting and sponsoring technical workers, then placing them at client companies' worksites.
One documented LCA places the discrepancy in sharp relief: a 2018 filing for a "Software Developer (Appian Developer)" position, Level II, at $92,500/year, lists the worksite as Washington, DC — not Raas Infotek's Newark, Delaware headquarters. Appian, the software platform named in the job title, markets itself heavily to federal and state governments. Neither the LCA nor any other public filing identifies what company Raas Infotek's Washington-based Appian developer was actually working for, or under what contract.
What we are not claiming: we are not claiming Raas Infotek's Washington, DC placement was on a federal contract, that it was connected to any company named elsewhere in this series, or that Raas Infotek has done anything improper. A Washington, DC worksite for an Appian developer is consistent with, but does not prove, work on a government-adjacent project — Appian has substantial commercial customers too. What we are saying is narrower: this is a real, documented example of exactly the kind of placement — sponsored visa holder, named software platform, DC worksite — for which no public record exists connecting the sponsoring company (Raas Infotek) to whichever company actually engaged it, or to any federal money that may ultimately fund that engagement.
The gap is the point, not a bug
Neither Take2 Consulting's zero H-1B filings nor Raas Infotek's absence from federal spending data is evidence, by itself, of wrongdoing. But put them together with the rest of this series — SDVOSB resellers moving billions through SEWP set-asides, a $258-million-to-$512-million staffing relationship hiding inside a single line item on a company dashboard, and now a documented H-1B sponsor with an untraceable client list — and a consistent shape emerges: at every layer of federal IT contracting, the unit of disclosure (a prime award, a tier-1 subaward, an LCA) is smaller than the unit of actual economic activity (a multi-tier delivery chain that can run four or five companies deep before reaching the person doing the work).
That gap doesn't require anyone to break a rule. Each individual disclosure requirement — report your tier-1 subs, disclose your visa sponsorships and worksites — is satisfied in full by companies like Take2 and Raas Infotek. The gap exists because each rule was written narrowly enough to be satisfiable without ever requiring a company to say "and here's who I'm working for, and here's who's working for me." For someone asking "how is this $1B+ federal IT program actually staffed, and by whom, on what visa status" — the honest answer, today, is: that information does not exist in any single public dataset, for any company, and cannot be reconstructed by combining the datasets that do exist.
Take2 Consulting ($512.0M in subawards, 0 H-1Bs) and Raas Infotek (52 H-1B LCAs, $0 in visible federal spending) are not exceptions or outliers — they are ordinary, compliant companies operating inside a disclosure system that was never built to answer the question this series keeps asking. If the goal is to know who is actually staffing federally-funded IT work and under what terms, the missing piece isn't a hidden document somewhere. It's a reporting requirement that doesn't exist yet.
