Aberdeen Proving Ground
Aberdeen Proving Ground is the U.S. Army's storied research-and-testing installation on the Chesapeake in Harford County, and the gravity center of the region's defense-technology economy. The contractors, engineering firms, and suppliers working in and around APG get Media & Technology Group's full toolkit: custom software, intelligent automation, and managed IT built for how the business runs.
Do you work with contractors and firms tied to Aberdeen Proving Ground?
Yes — Aberdeen Proving Ground is one of the Army's oldest research, testing, and materiel installations, and the contractors, engineering firms, and suppliers serving that community are squarely who we build for, remote-first from Pennsylvania.
Can you build software that fits a defense or engineering firm here?
Yes — we build platforms and integrations around the technical and project workflows firms serving Aberdeen Proving Ground run, with the access controls, audit trails, and documentation this kind of work expects.
Where would AI help a firm serving Aberdeen Proving Ground?
At the document-heavy work — drafting and reviewing correspondence, summarizing meetings, and extracting data from contracts and reports — with a person reviewing every output.
What does cybersecurity look like for a contractor here?
Managed EDR, multi-factor authentication everywhere, immutable backups, phishing defense, a patch program, and a written incident plan, designed around the controls a defense-adjacent firm is held to.
What does managed IT include for a defense-adjacent firm?
Email, devices, network, backups, and security, monitored and maintained, with real support when something breaks — handled to the standard a proving-ground contractor needs.
What does a custom build cost?
A focused build runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; a larger platform runs higher. We scope to the firm's real needs and phase it.
Do we own the code and data?
Yes — both, no lock-in, take it anywhere any time.
Can you integrate with the systems we already run?
Usually yes — connecting the project, financial, and records systems a firm here depends on so they share data instead of being re-entered.
How fast do you respond when something breaks?
Usually 15 to 60 minutes in business hours and under an hour after-hours for critical issues — a direct line, which matters for a firm on a schedule.
What makes you a better fit than a big national vendor?
A named team, direct access, and a partner that builds for the long haul — not an account managed three layers deep at a national firm.
