About this agency
The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office is a civilian sub-agency within USDA that administers federal contracts to support agricultural marketing and market development activities across the farm-to-consumer supply chain. The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) has awarded 10,918 federal contracts totaling $18.89 billion in combined potential value since 2003, with $18.34 billion obligated to date. Recent contract volume has declined: 1,435 awards in 2023, 1,615 in 2024, 1,088 in 2025, and 749 in 2026, with 43 awards recorded so far in 2027 (through early July).
The competitive landscape is moderately concentrated by award count among the top five prime contractors over the last five years. Transnow Inc. leads with 987 awards, followed by Aqua Gulf Transport, Inc. at 405 awards and Inn Foods, Inc. at 269 awards; these five firms account for 32 percent of recent awards. By potential value, concentration is highly fragmented: the top five primes hold only 7 percent of combined potential value over the same window, with Stutz Packing Company leading at $398.8 million across 74 awards and Inn Foods, Inc. at $290.2 million across 269 awards. The disparity between count-based and value-based concentration reflects a high volume of small-dollar awards alongside a smaller set of larger contracts. Across the portfolio history, AMS has engaged 748 distinct prime contractors.
The set-aside mix is heavily weighted toward unrestricted competition: 76 percent of all awards carry no set-aside designation. Small business set-asides (including Total Small Business, Partial Small Business, and Reserved for Small Business designations) account for 21 percent combined. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business awards represent 1 percent, with Competitive 8(a), 8(a) Sole Source, and HUBZone awards each representing 1 percent or less.
No recent contract opportunities or grant opportunities are recorded against the agency in the source data. The latest recorded award date is 2027-07-01, indicating either forward-dated awards or data lags in the underlying portfolio.
