Secret Service

The Department of Homeland Security U.S. Secret Service, a sub-agency within DHS, procures protective services equipment, facilities maintenance, training support, and operational logistics to safeguard national leadership and secure federal facilities and special events.

The Secret Service has awarded 19,001 contracts since 1981, with combined potential value of $7.33 billion and $6.39 billion obligated to date. Recent award volume averaged 628 to 774 annually over 2023–2025; 659 awards closed in 2026, with 1 award recorded as of July 2027. Contract competitive concentration is highly fragmented. Among the top five primes by award count over the last five years—Thundercat Technology LLC (91 awards, $93.2 million potential value), Govplace LLC (71 awards, $39.3 million), Arcus Group LLC (67 awards, $95 million), Atlantic Diving Supply Inc. (44 awards, $11.8 million), and Bialek Corporation of Maryland (36 awards, $21.6 million)—combined representation stands at 9 percent of recent awards. By potential value, the top five hold only 4 percent of combined value, reflecting a long tail of 4,703 distinct prime contractors awarded across the portfolio. Set-asides remain atypical; 82 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small-business set-asides (total small business, 8(a), HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, and woman-owned variants) account for 11 percent of awards, with the bulk concentrated in total small business (2,033 awards). No recent contract awards were recorded against the agency between July 2027 and today.

The Secret Service awarded one federal grant in the portfolio history—a Project Grant of $21.9 million to the City of Hoover, obligated on June 10, 2024. No additional grant awards are recorded.

Active contract opportunities reflect operations spanning protective equipment, facilities support, training, and special-events logistics. Representative current solicitations include requests for information on armored vehicle systems (due January 8, 2027), event transportation logistics coordination services (due November 20, 2026), and event housing management services (due November 21, 2026). An enterprise human-resources technology modernization (End 2 End) pre-solicitation (due October 23, 2026) seeks a cloud-based talent acquisition and awards-management platform. Ongoing competitive solicitations target ammunition supply (9mm duty and training ammunition, proposals due October 26, 2026), ballistic shields, janitorial services for Wilmington Delaware, laundry services on a five-year IDIQ (set-aside for total small business, due September 8, 2026), and specialized maintenance services including HVAC, sterilizer repair, and protective-equipment fleet maintenance. Recent sole-source notices include protective intelligence training delivery to The Halen Group Inc. ($4.078 million, five-year BPA) and school behavioral threat assessment guidance to the University of Connecticut.

The Secret Service works to safeguard the nation's financial infrastructure. The Secret Service is also responsible for protecting national leaders, visiting heads of state, and National Special Security Events.
