About Meridian Rapid Defense Group LLC
Meridian Rapid Defense Group LLC manufactures mobile vehicle barriers and physical security equipment as a prime contractor on GSA Multiple Award Schedule delivery orders to Department of Defense and veteran affairs customer agencies, competing under full-and-open procurement with no set-aside activity in its recent footprint. The Pasadena, California-based limited liability company performs manufacturing and delivery directly from its facilities without major subcontractors.
Meridian's capability portfolio centers on the Archer product line—mobile vehicle barrier systems, drop deck trailers, and beam gates—procured by defense and civilian agencies for perimeter security and force protection. Recent representative work includes an April 2026 delivery order for eight barrier kits to the Marine Corps at Camp Lejeune, Cherry Point, and Blount Island under GSA MAS (ceiling $975,331), a November 2025 $86,184 order from GSA Federal Acquisition Service for an Archer T-1000 Drop Deck Trailer and Archer Beam Gate 2.0, and a July 2023 $102,044 order from Air Force Air Combat Command for Archer beam gates and vehicle barriers supporting Langley Air Force Base operations.
Customer concentration is modest and defense-weighted. The top five funding entities account for 73% of awards by count and 91% by combined potential value, led by the Marine Corps (2 awards, $1.1 million combined potential value) and GSA Federal Acquisition Service (2 awards, $586 thousand), with Air Force Air Combat Command, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and Air Force Space Command rounding out the active set. Eight distinct customer agencies appear across the 11 awards in the source data. All seven identified task orders sit on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, which is Meridian's sole named parent vehicle and carries $1.4 million in combined potential value. The portfolio shows sparse recent activity—two awards in 2019, one in 2022, two in 2023, one in 2025, and two in 2026—against a combined potential value of $2.1 million and obligated dollars totaling $1.6 million (77% of potential value). Meridian operates as 100% prime, with no subcontract footprint in the source data.
