About the company
Ares Defense Group LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and minority-owned (Hispanic American) limited liability company, provides armed and unarmed security officers, magnetometer screening equipment, and visitor management services to the National Park Service as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides. Based in Warrenton, Virginia, the company operates under NAICS 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services) and has won 21 prime awards totaling $9.4 million in combined potential value across the past four years, all from a single customer agency.
Ares Defense Group's entire federal footprint concentrates on Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts in Vienna, Virginia. The company holds two single-award indefinite delivery contracts with the National Park Service National Office: a $5.28 million total small business set-aside IDC (awarded June 1, 2023, extending through November 30, 2028) and a $950 thousand total small business set-aside IDC (awarded May 25, 2022, expired April 30, 2023). The $5.28 million IDC, which accounts for the bulk of current activity, funds ongoing security operations including armed and unarmed officer deployment, access control, roving patrols, and magnetometer screening to support the park's performing arts events, education programs, and daily operations. Recent delivery orders against the primary IDC include a $413,517 order for the FY26 performance season (May 2026), a $388,557 order for the 2025 performance season and May labor (May 2025), a $198,544 option-year order (July 2025), and a $184,576 order for June and July 2025 operations (May 2025). The earlier $950 thousand IDC supported orders ranging from $26,950 to $273,960 between May and September 2022. Individual delivery orders are issued on a firm fixed price basis, with values ranging from $1,696 for concert-specific events to $455,632 for full concert seasons.
Activity has remained flat since 2022, averaging four awards per year with one award appearing in 2026 to date. The source shows $3.2 million in combined dollars obligated across all awards (34% of combined potential value), indicating consistent cash flow against the IDC ceiling. The company has not subcontracted on any recorded awards and operates exclusively within a single customer relationship. No vehicle participation beyond the two Wolf Trap IDCs is documented in the source. Ares Defense Group holds no other parent contract vehicles, GWACs, or agency-wide seats; the business is built entirely on sole-source performance at Wolf Trap National Park under total small business set-asides.
