Flordia State Office

The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Florida State Office is a sub-agency within USDA that administers federal housing loan and grant programs for rural residents and communities in Florida, procuring operational services and supplies to support its mission delivery. The Florida State Office has awarded 1,738 federal contracts since 2010, generating $2.6 million in combined potential value across 69 distinct prime contractors. Award volume has been minimal and irregular — the office issued 2 awards in 2020, 48 in 2021, 37 in 2022, 62 in 2023, and 1 award in 2024, with the most recent award dated September 2024.

Competitive concentration is highly fragmented by award count but highly concentrated by dollar value. Boswell & Dunlap LLP dominates the recent portfolio, holding 106 of 110 awards issued over the last five years (99% of recent award count) and $411 thousand of the $465 thousand in combined potential value across top vendors. The remaining four primes — United Parcel Service, Inc., Jack Knelly's Office Furniture Specialities Inc., Spenceley Office Equipment Inc., and RLJ III - Em Tampa DT Lessee LLC — collectively account for $56 thousand across 4 awards. The 69-vendor portfolio as a whole is highly fragmented, with the top five vendors representing only 18 percent of combined potential value, indicating that the long tail of 64 vendors collectively holds substantial transactional footprint despite minimal individual award sizes.

Set-aside activity is negligible. The portfolio contains no 8(a), women-owned, service-disabled veteran, or HUBZone set-asides; 1,732 of 1,738 awards (100 percent) carry no set-aside designation. A single Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise award and five Small Business awards comprise the entire reserved category mix, together representing less than one percent of total awards.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the Florida State Office or its descendant offices. The minimal and irregular award cadence combined with the absence of open solicitations suggests the office is not actively marketing procurement volume at this time. Businesses currently engaged with Boswell & Dunlap LLP or possessing operational-services and supply-chain relationships may evaluate pursuit opportunities if the office resumes active solicitation; broader market entry would require monitoring for future funding announcements.
