Rural Development Budget Division

The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Budget Division is a sub-agency within USDA that administers federal contracting for the Rural Housing Service's budgeting and financial operations. The Division has awarded five federal contracts cumulatively since 2008, with the most recent award closing in September 2016—a decade ago. Contract activity has been sparse and episodic: three awards in 2008, one in 2010, and one in 2016. Combined contract potential value stands at $254 thousand, fully obligated across the portfolio. All five awards went to distinct prime contractors with no set-aside designations; competitive concentration is highly fragmented by design, as each contract went to a different vendor with no contractor repeat. No recent contract awards are recorded, and no open contract opportunities are identified in the source material. The absence of contracting activity over the last ten years and minimal historical volume indicate that direct federal contract procurement is not a material business development target at this Division.
