What M2H Protection does

M2H Protection is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) professional services firm that provides security and technology consulting and design services to federal, state, and local government agencies, as well as commercial, institutional, and cultural clients. Founded in 2013 by principal Mark M. Hankewycz (CPP, PSP, RCDD), the firm operates from Middletown, Maryland and delivers projects nationwide, with a particular focus on historically sensitive and iconic facilities, high-security federal and military applications, and complex campus environments. Its customer roster includes the Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Reserve, the IMF, the World Bank, the Smithsonian Institution, and the Kennedy Center, among others.

The firm's service portfolio is organized into six integrated pillars: Security Consulting (risk and threat assessments, anti-terrorism analysis, security master planning), Security Design (perimeter intrusion, access control, video surveillance, SCIF/vault design), IT-Telecom and Data (information transport systems, data center and WiFi design), Telecommunications (network architecture, outside plant design), Audio Visual (EOC/SOC systems, mass notification, distributed campus AV), and Facilities Support (on-site technical staffing and commissioning). The underlying technology is a human-expert, document-driven engineering practice: M2H produces designs, standards, and assessments rather than software or hardware products, with deep specialization in federal compliance, protective design, and resilience planning.

M2H's business model is project-based, quote-based professional services revenue earned as either a prime consultant or a sub-consultant within multi-discipline Architectural Engineering teams. The firm holds multiple set-aside certifications (SDVOSB, Maryland SBR, Virginia SWaM, MWAA LDBE) that gate access to federal and state procurement tracks, and the stated principle of principal involvement on every engagement positions quality and direct expertise as the primary value driver rather than scale or cost.
