About Aarnest Inc.
Aarnest Inc., an SBA 8(a)-certified women-owned small disadvantaged business based in Aldie, Virginia, provides temporary IT staffing and software development labor to federal agencies as a prime contractor on GSA Multiple Award Schedule contracts. The firm is minority-owned (Subcontinent Asian American-owned), woman-owned, and self-certified as a small disadvantaged business; it competes exclusively under set-aside authority, with both active GSA Schedule vehicles awarded under Total Small Business and 8(a) designations.
Aarnest's federal footprint is concentrated and nascent. Both known awards (issued September 11, 2024) are Federal Supply Schedule contracts with GSA's Federal Acquisition Service, each carrying a $500,000 ceiling through September 10, 2029. One contract operates under the Total Small Business set-aside and covers four IT labor categories: Senior Software Developer ($143.58/hr), Senior Application Developer ($124.43/hr), Data Integration Lead ($95.72/hr), and Database Administrator ($86.15/hr). The second contract operates under no set-aside and spans two Special Item Numbers — Temporary Staffing (SIN 561320SBSA) and Information Technology Professional Services (SIN 54151S) — covering six labor categories with hourly rates ranging from $88.30 to $150.11. All positions require bachelor's degrees; experience requirements span two to ten years, and no security-cleared roles are offered. Both contracts specify a $250,000 maximum order limit per task order, a $100 minimum order threshold, a 5% discount from list prices, and Net 30 payment terms. Work is performed nationwide across the 48 contiguous states, with delivery logistics and performance locations determined at the task order level.
The vendor's Service Contract Inventory footprint shows minimal activity: one SCI-reportable subcontract record in FY2022 representing roughly 0.3 FTEs delivered to the federal government. This reflects early-stage prime positioning and does not represent the vendor's total federal services revenue, which flows primarily through the two GSA Schedule vehicles and has not yet accumulated significant task-order volume in the source data.
Activity is nascent but positioned for growth through established GSA Schedule channels. Both awards expire September 10, 2029, creating a potential recompete window in roughly 4.5 years. As a women-owned 8(a) firm in the IT staffing and software development labor space, Aarnest competes against larger schedule holders on women-owned and 8(a)-set-aside task orders and pursues task orders from civilian agencies leveraging the GSA MAS procurement vehicle. The firm has not yet established a subcontractor footprint and operates entirely as a prime on its known federal awards.
