Trident Technical Solutions, LLC

Trident Technical Solutions, LLC, doing business as Ardent Eagle Solutions, is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) that operates as a prime contractor on federal staffing support, program management, and facilities maintenance contracts, with emerging exposure to defense engineering work through Northrop Grumman subcontracts. The Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri-headquartered firm (with an office in Tampa, Florida) has won 188 prime awards (88% of its 214 total awards) and competes predominantly on SDVOSB set-asides and unrestricted full-and-open vehicles, with recent award activity accelerating—29 awards in 2025 alone—and a combined potential value across all awards of $15.68 billion, heavily anchored by a single four-award Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command vehicle carrying $15.28 billion.

Trident's customer concentration is dominated by the Department of Commerce, which accounts for the majority of active task orders. The Department of Commerce Office of the Secretary leads with 67 awards valued at $246.8 million, followed by the International Trade Administration with 26 awards at $97.2 million combined potential value, and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration with 13 awards at $12.9 million. These three Commerce bureaus account for 74% of recent award count. The Department of the Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region ranks second by award count with 29 awards ($4.5 million combined value), all rooted in Trident's Fort Leonard Wood headquarters location. A material divergence appears in the top customers by dollar value: the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command carries just four awards but anchors $15.28 billion in potential value through what the source indicates are defense-sector engineering and manufacturing opportunities. Obligated dollars total $232.8 million against the $15.68 billion ceiling, indicating substantial unexercised contract capacity.

Trident's primary revenue driver is the Department of Commerce's Staff Support Services 2 (SS2) indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle—a $151 million IDIQ set aside for SDVOSBs—where Trident holds 82 task orders valued at $115 million combined potential value. Recent representative SS2 orders include a $38.6 million time-and-materials delivery order from the International Trade Administration (June 8, 2022, ultimate completion June 3, 2026) for staffing support services in Washington, DC; a $5.47 million delivery order from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (June 5, 2023, completion November 4, 2025) for staffing support; and a $1.89 million order from the US Census Bureau (March 31, 2023, completion October 23, 2025) for staffing support services in Washington, DC. The second-largest vehicle is the SSO Staff Augmentation Support IDIQ, anchoring 46 task orders at $63.4 million combined potential value. Trident was awarded a position on the General Services Administration's OASIS+ Total Small Business Set-Aside multiple-award contract on December 19, 2024, with a multi-billion-dollar ceiling through December 2029, enabling competition across seven functional service domains (Management and Advisory, Technical and Engineering, Research and Development, Intelligence Services, Environmental Services, Facilities, and Logistics). Recent activity under OASIS+ includes a $9.17 million delivery order from the International Trade Administration (June 4, 2026, completion June 3, 2027) for antidumping and countervailing duty interim operations support. Trident also holds a GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract (Federal Supply Schedule number 47QTCA22D0048, ceiling $475 thousand, awarded February 4, 2022, expiring February 3, 2027) offering IT professional services across ten labor categories at hourly rates from $63.48 (IT Specialist) to $185.65 (Business Analyst III), with no security-cleared roles. A single-award Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region indefinite delivery contract, valued at $785.75 thousand with ultimate completion October 27, 2025, covers preventative maintenance and repair of mass notification systems at Fort Leonard Wood.

SCI-reported invoicing of service contracts above the $150,000 threshold reached $23.1 million in FY2024, up from $16.7 million in FY2022, with a reported workforce of 153 full-time equivalents in FY2024 (increasing from 112 in FY2022). On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates run around $65.67 per hour, with a 10th percentile of $52.98 per hour and 90th percentile of $123.39 per hour, reflecting a mix of administrative support and professional-grade roles. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors accounted for an average 4% share of total contractor hours, with 11 named subcontractors reported, indicating Trident builds most of its delivery teams internally rather than relying heavily on subs. Trident invoiced approximately 0.8 to 3.6 full-time equivalents per task order on sampled Commerce Department delivery orders, with self-performance of all reported labor and no subcontractor engagement on those sampled records.

Trident's exposure to defense work flows primarily through subcontracts to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation and Amentum Technology, Inc. Recent Northrop Grumman subs include nine awards in September 2025 for progressive microelectronic capability solutions supporting aircraft systems improvements under the Advanced Technology Support Program (ATSP), an August 7, 2025 order for Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) hardware low-rate initial production/full-rate production, and a July 2, 2024 order for Base Operations Network (BONE) refinement and systems enhancements. Two awards from Amentum Technology in October 2023 and January 2024 supported SITEC 2 BRIDGE computer systems and services. This sub footprint does not appear in Trident's prime awards; the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command four-award, $15.28 billion potential value concentration likely represents either recently-awarded primes not yet populated in the source's contract detail section or placeholder ceiling vehicles. The company's capability portfolio, grounded in award history and SCI data, centers on administrative staffing support, program management, and facilities maintenance with emerging engineering services through Northrop Grumman and Amentum partnerships.

Recompete activity in the next twenty-four months involves 26 awards with combined potential value of $24.4 million, representing a moderate near-term recompete exposure. Activity has grown from 17 awards in 2022 to 29 in 2025, with only 4 awards appearing in 2026 year-to-date, likely a trailing-quarter artifact. By NAICS coding, the vendor's footprint is concentrated in Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (130 awards), Engineering Services (26 awards), and electrical and communications equipment maintenance and manufacturing categories (50 combined awards). By PSC coding, the dominant categories are Support—Management: Other (41 awards), Support—Professional: Program Management/Support (36 awards), and Maint/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment—Electrical and Electronic Equipment Components (25 awards), reflecting the split between Commerce Department staffing work and Army facilities maintenance work at Fort Leonard Wood.
