TRGroup

What TRGroup does

TRGroup Inc. is a privately held, SBA-certified 8(a), HUBZone, and SDB IT and security consulting firm headquartered in Ocean City, Maryland, founded in 2000. The firm delivers a portfolio of professional services — cybersecurity, network management, high-performance wireless, systems engineering, program and project management, physical security and surveillance, helpdesk support, and infrastructure cabling — to federal, state, and local government agencies, K-12 schools and libraries, and commercial customers across the US, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America. Its primary go-to-market is enterprise field sales executed through government-wide acquisition contracts including GSA Schedule 70 (GS-35F-218GA), GSA 8(a) STARS II GWAC (GS00Q17GWD2430), Maryland CATS+ (060B2490023-2016), HUBZone sole-source, and the FCC E-Rate program; engagements are typically priced as time-and-materials or fixed-price task orders.

The company's only named product is hydroCORE, a patent-pending platform engineered for the water and wastewater sector that automates AWWA J100 risk and resilience assessments under America's Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) and translates vulnerability metrics into council-ready budget justifications for small and rural water systems. TRGroup has invested in vertical-specific credentials to support this push, notably the American Water Works Association (AWWA) Utility Risk and Resilience Certification earned by CEO Aaron Finney in 2025. The technology stack leans on partnerships with Microsoft, Dell, and Juniper Networks, and the firm has completed projects spanning maritime wireless connectivity (Cape May Lewes Ferry, >50Mbps over ~90 square miles), large-scale temporary network deployments (a 3,000-personnel government quarantine camp), satellite ground systems support, and physical security/surveillance installations. No external investment, parent company, or institutional ownership has been disclosed; the firm appears founder-led under Aaron Finney as President and CEO, with a small (11–50 employee) operating footprint and no public revenue disclosure.
