KR Contracting Inc.

KR Contracting Inc., a veteran-owned small business headquartered in McLean, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor delivering armed and unarmed protective security officer services, airport security screening, and related federal facility protection across civilian agencies and the Department of Defense. The company competes predominantly through full-and-open contracting on agency IDIQs and BPAs, with recurring work under Total Small Business set-asides on specific vehicles; veteran-owned status is characteristic across its posture but does not anchor most of the prime footprint to set-aside-only competition.

Customer concentration is acute and heavily skewed toward two DHS entities. The Department of Homeland Security's Office of Procurement Operations dominates activity with 64 awards (96% of award count) valued at $3.07 billion in combined potential value, almost entirely delivery orders for protective security officer services at federal facilities across the National Capital Region and beyond. The Transportation Security Administration represents the dollar anchor: six awards across two IDIQs (the existing TSA Screening Partnership Program through May 2026 and a newly awarded $5.3 billion single-award IDIQ effective June 1, 2026) carry $8.63 billion in combined potential value — representing 73% of the company's total contract ceiling. The Office of the Secretary of Defense places seven orders under guard-service BPAs and an indefinite-delivery contract, totaling $20 million. The Bureau of Prisons and Bureau of Engraving and Printing account for small-dollar, lower-volume work.

KR Contracting holds four named indefinite delivery vehicles. The $5.3 billion TSA IDIQ (single award, non-set-aside, through May 31, 2036) was awarded June 1, 2026, concurrent with a $28.6 million delivery order for comprehensive security screening at Charles M. Schulz Sonoma County Airport in Santa Rosa, California. The $2.667 billion DHS Armed Protective Security Officer Services IDC (multiple award, non-set-aside, through December 31, 2028) feeds the bulk of OPO delivery orders for PSO services at DC facilities and National Capital Region locations. A $7.32 million Total Small Business BPA with the Office of the Secretary of Defense under the Multiple Award Schedule (effective June 1, 2022 through November 30, 2025) has generated four task orders totaling approximately $6.09 million for armed guard services from KR Contracting's Elkridge, Maryland facility; three option periods have been exercised in succession, reflecting sustained government performance satisfaction. A smaller $5.3 million DPSA guard-service BPA under the Multiple Award Schedule ran through November 2022 and is expired.

Activity volume declined sharply from 2022 onward. Annual awards fell from ten in 2022 to three in 2026 (as of early June), though the recent TSA IDIQ award substantially altered the dollar posture. Only three awards (combined potential value $7.4 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. However, the company's reliance on two customer agencies — OPO and TSA — for 96% of awards creates concentration risk; any shift in agency strategy around PSO or airport screening contracting would materially affect the pipeline.

SCI-reported invoiced revenue on prime service contracts above the $150,000 threshold declined from $33.3 million (FY2022, 320 FTEs) to $13.6 million (FY2024, 126 FTEs). Median government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable contracts ran around $51.05 per hour, with rates ranging from approximately $39.97 at the 10th percentile to $58.65 at the 90th percentile — consistent with market rates for security labor at federal facilities. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, KR Contracting used zero subcontractor hours, indicating the company delivers security personnel and operations directly rather than layering sub-teams. All 89 recent awards in the source are prime contracts; no sub-award activity appears.

KR Contracting's capability footprint is narrow and deep. The company specializes in two core services: protective security officer operations (armed and unarmed guard services, access control, facility monitoring, and personnel protection at federal facilities, predominantly in the National Capital Region) and TSA airport passenger and baggage screening under the Screening Partnership Program. Facility-security work is drawn from a pool of security personnel performing labor-hours or firm-fixed-price service delivery; airport screening is similar but oriented to compliance with TSA operational standards at participating private and municipal airports nationwide. The company has no apparent product, IT, or professional-services dimension — the portfolio is 100% security labor.
