About this agency
The Department of Agriculture Office of Operations, a sub-agency within the civilian USDA cabinet department, procures operational and administrative services to support the Department's mission and infrastructure. The Office of Operations manages facilities, IT services, logistics, and other enterprise-level support functions across USDA's bureaus and regional offices.
The Office of Operations has issued 8,827 federal contract awards cumulatively since 1985, with combined potential value of $1.44 billion and combined dollars obligated of $2.25 billion. Recent award volume has declined substantially: 113 awards in 2022, 136 in 2023, 79 in 2024, 31 in 2025, and 24 year-to-date in 2026. The most recently recorded award date is October 1, 2026. Across its contractor base of 1,516 distinct primes, competitive concentration is highly fragmented. Over the last five years, B3 Enterprises LLC dominates by award count with 140 awards valued at $4.5 million, followed by Hamilton Pacific Chamberlain LLC and Global Com, Inc. at 13 awards each. However, top-five coverage stands at only 46 percent of recent awards by count and 3 percent by combined potential value, indicating that the Office of Operations distributes work broadly across a long tail of smaller vendors. AECOM Technical Services, Inc. holds the largest single award-potential ceiling at $10.9 million across four awards.
Set-aside awards account for approximately 29 percent of the portfolio. The dominant set-aside categories are Total Small Business at 14 percent of all awards (1,256 awards) and 8(a) Sole Source at 10 percent (887 awards). Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business accounts for 3 percent (252 awards). The remaining set-asides—Competitive 8(a), Emerging Small Business, HUBZone, Buy Indian, Reserved for Small Business, Partial Small Business, and Woman-Owned Small Business Sole Source—collectively represent less than 2 percent of volume. The portfolio shows no recent contract opportunities recorded against the Office of Operations.
