Chenega Global Protection, LLC

Chenega Global Protection, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Chenega Corporation, provides armed and unarmed protective services, fire operations, and emergency response across federal facilities as a prime contractor (100% of awards), competing predominately under 8(a) set-aside vehicles and full-and-open designations. The company is an Alaska Native Corporation-owned, SBA-certified 8(a) Business Development Program participant (certification expired December 20, 2023) headquartered in Chantilly, Virginia, with primary operations at NASA and Department of Homeland Security facilities nationwide. The firm operates primarily under NAICS 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services) and PSC code Housekeeping-Guard, delivering comprehensive facility protection including armed and unarmed security personnel, access control systems, emergency response, fire suppression, and integrated physical security management across multiple federal agencies.

Chenega Global Protection's federal customer base is heavily concentrated in NASA operations across five regional centers. The top customers by potential value—ranked by combined award dollars—include the Department of Homeland Security Office of Procurement Operations (1 award, $2.9 billion), NASA Kennedy Space Center (43 awards, $943.8 million), NASA Goddard Space Center (29 awards, $278.6 million), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Pittsburgh (4 awards, $276 million), and NASA Ames Research Center (41 awards, $116.5 million). These five agencies account for 93% of all potential value. By award count, Kennedy Space Center dominates with 43 awards, followed by Ames with 41 and Goddard with 29; the top five agencies by volume account for 63% of all awards.

The company's primary vehicle footprint consists of four large indefinite delivery contracts. The NASA Fire Services Contract (IDIQ 80KSC022DA001), valued at $361.5 million, spans five NASA centers (Ames, Wallops, Johnson, Kennedy, Stennis) and has generated 86 task orders worth $332 million. The NASA Protective Services Contract - Eastern Region (IDIQ 80GSFC23DA004), valued at $198 million through February 29, 2028, covers Glenn, NASA Headquarters, Goddard, and Langley research centers and has produced 76 task orders worth $140.6 million. The NASA Protective Services Contract - South Region (IDIQ 80KSC022DA002), valued at $348.5 million through March 31, 2027, spans Kennedy, Johnson, Marshall, Michoud, Stennis, and White Sands test facilities with 54 task orders totaling $158.7 million. A Department of Defense Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Army (IDIQ 19AQMM22D0076) for fixed and mobile security guard services in the European Area of Responsibility carries a $50 million ceiling and has generated 5 task orders worth $4.3 million. The Department of Homeland Security multiple-award indefinite delivery contract for Armed Protective Security Officer services, valued at $2.895 billion through December 31, 2028, represents the company's largest single vehicle, though task order detail from that contract was not itemized in the award summary data provided.

Activity has grown substantially across the past four years—from 27 awards in 2022 to a recent high of 63 in 2023, with 2024–2026 averaging 46 awards per year. Forty-four awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $199.6 million, creating a significant recompete cliff, particularly around March 31, 2027, when the South Region protective services IDIQ and NASA Fire Services Contract face potential recompete.

SCI-reported invoicing across FY2022–FY2025 totaled $518.7 million, reflecting Chenega Global Protection's substantial federal service delivery at the reportable contract level. In FY2022, the company invoiced $44.7 million across 532 FTEs. This grew to $114.5 million across 1,136 FTEs in FY2023 and $181.7 million across 1,590 FTEs in FY2024—a fourfold increase in invoiced revenue and near threefold growth in reported workforce over two years. FY2025 invoicing declined slightly to $177.8 million across 1,400 FTEs, reflecting normal FY variability. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable contracts ranged from roughly $39.61/hr at the tenth percentile to $137.28/hr at the ninety-ninth percentile, with a median of $51.54/hr, reflecting a mix of junior security personnel and senior protective services specialists. The company self-performs approximately 96 percent of contractor hours on federal service contracts across its portfolio; SCI records show an average 5 percent subcontractor-hours share, with eight named subcontractors reported across the reportable contract population, indicating a predominantly self-performing delivery model rather than a subcontracting-dependent strategy.

Chenega Global Protection competes almost exclusively as a prime contractor and does not routinely position itself as a subcontractor to larger defense integrators. The vendor's competitive posture emphasizes sole-source and competitive 8(a) set-aside vehicles, though recent activity shows increasing full-and-open competition, particularly on larger task orders at established NASA facilities. The company operates as the sole holder of four major regional NASA protective services and fire operations IDIQs, positioning it as a primary provider for those missions rather than a competitive secondary option. The firm's Alaska Native Corporation ownership and 8(a) certification (despite expiration in December 2023) have anchored its federal market access, though the vendor continues to compete and win awards in unrestricted vehicles, demonstrating established capability and performance reputation across civilian and defense agencies.
