Bankruptcy Courts

The Bankruptcy Courts, a civilian sub-agency within the federal judicial branch, conduct contract work primarily for internal court operations and administrative support functions. The agency issued 265 federal contract awards spanning from October 2002 through February 2010, with activity concentrated in the mid-2000s before declining sharply; 127 awards closed in 2006, followed by only 5 in 2007, 10 in 2008, 4 in 2009, and 4 in 2010. No recorded contract awards have closed since February 2010.

The combined award potential value across the portfolio is $1.2 million, with $837 thousand obligated (71% of potential value). The agency worked with 23 distinct prime contractors cumulatively. Contract competitive concentration is highly fragmented, with no vendor concentration data reported in the source sufficient to identify leading primes by award count or potential value within a contemporary window. The vast majority of awards—260 of 265 (98%)—carried no set-aside designation, while 4 awards (2%) used 8(a) Sole Source and 1 award (less than 1%) fell under Total Small Business set-asides.

The Bankruptcy Courts' contract portfolio is inactive in current terms. The most recent award closed more than sixteen years ago, and no recent contract opportunities are recorded against the agency. Business development activity targeting this agency would not yield near-term pursuit opportunities on the contract side.
