Management Support Division

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's CPO Management Support Division procures professional services, management consulting, and administrative support to sustain federal contracting operations across HUD. The division sits within the larger federal acquisition framework of HUD's Headquarters Contracting Office and has issued 22 federal contract awards since 2004, generating $40.4 million in combined potential value with $39.3 million obligated.

Contract activity has been sparse in recent years. The division awarded 6 contracts in 2016, then 1 in 2017, 3 in 2018, 1 in 2019, and 1 in 2022. The most recent recorded award closed on September 6, 2022. Activity over the last five years (2016–2022) totals 12 awards, representing a significant slowdown from earlier portfolio history. The competitive landscape is highly fragmented by both award count and potential value: KPMG LLP holds the sole award within the recent five-year window (1 award, $4.3 million potential value), accounting for 11% of recent combined potential value. Among 16 distinct prime contractors across the lifetime portfolio, no vendor demonstrates sustained concentration, indicating a pattern of one-off or episodic awards rather than sustained contract vehicles or task-order activity.

The division's set-aside mix is heavily skewed toward unrestricted competition: 82% of awards carried no set-aside designation, with the remaining 18% split between two 8(a) Sole Source awards and two additional Small Business set-aside awards. The high proportion of unrestricted awards reflects the specialized nature of the procurement—management support and contracting-office services typically do not lend themselves to small-business carve-outs.

No recent federal contract opportunities are recorded against the CPO Management Support Division. Given the minimal activity cadence since 2022 and the absence of open solicitations, this division does not present an active procurement target for contract pursuit at this time. Business development activity should monitor for future Requests for Proposal or open competitive opportunities, but current conditions suggest limited near-term engagement.
