About Guardnow Inc.
Guardnow Inc., doing business as Irvine Protect Security, is a minority-owned small business based in Irvine, California, that delivers security guard and patrol services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on the GSA Federal Supply Schedule. The vendor holds a single Federal Supply Schedule contract (47QSMS25D009C) awarded June 5, 2025, with a $475 thousand ceiling and performance extending through June 4, 2030. Guardnow is a Hispanic American-owned, small business joint venture structured as a for-profit corporate entity competing in full-and-open federal procurements — no set-aside activity appears in the current award footprint.
Guardnow's capability portfolio centers on two labor categories: Unarmed Security Officers and Armed Security Officers. Year 1 rates are $36.59 per hour for unarmed and $48.43 per hour for armed personnel, escalating 2.5% annually through the contract term. Both categories require a high school diploma and a minimum of two years of prior security, military, or law enforcement experience; no security clearances are offered. The contract enables federal agencies to task customized services including vehicle patrols, parking enforcement, and supervisory roles through individual Statements of Work or Performance Work Statements. The contract establishes minimum and maximum order thresholds of $100 and $250,000, with baseline 1% commercial discounts and an additional 10% quantity discount for orders exceeding $100,000. GSA Federal Acquisition Service is the sole customer to date and accounts for 100% of the vendor's awarded potential value.
Activity footprint is nascent — the June 2025 Federal Supply Schedule award represents Guardnow's only federal award in the source data. The $475 thousand ceiling and one-customer concentration reflect early-stage market entry on a GSA vehicle. No recompete activity, task-order history, or sub-award experience is present in the current record. Guardnow operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subordinate subcontracting relationships documented to date, positioning the vendor as a labor-service provider rather than a systems integrator or program-management entity.
