BOP Southeast Regional Office

The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Southeast Regional Office, a civilian sub-agency within the federal corrections system, procures operational supplies, equipment, and services to support prison facilities across the southeastern United States. The regional office has recorded 691 federal contract awards since 2001, with $112.5 million in combined award potential value and $28.3 million in federal dollars obligated as of mid-August 2026.

Recent activity has declined sharply. The Southeast Regional Office issued 23 awards in 2022, 22 in 2023, 8 in 2024, 4 in 2025, and 2 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award closed on August 17, 2026.

The competitive landscape is highly fragmented by award count but even more so by value. Over the last five years, Kyocera Document Solutions America Inc. leads with 29 awards ($50 thousand combined potential value), followed by Alphasix LLC with 6 awards ($167 thousand) and Pond & Company with 6 awards ($616 thousand). The top five primes by award count cover 75 percent of recent awards, but those same vendors account for only 1 percent of combined potential value over the window. This structure reflects the regional office's reliance on small-dollar transactional awards—individual supply orders, routine maintenance contracts, and equipment purchases—rather than large integrator relationships. Across the 691-award portfolio history, 220 distinct prime contractors have been awarded at least once.

Set-asides are minimal. Ninety-seven percent of awards carry no set-aside designation; small-business awards (including 8(a) and other SBA small-business categories) comprise 3 percent of the portfolio, or 20 awards.

No recent grant activity is recorded against the Southeast Regional Office or its descendant offices.

The agency's procurement velocity and deal sizes suggest a narrow opportunity window for vendors seeking engagement. The downward trend in award count and the predominance of below-$1-million task orders indicate budget constraints or a shift in procurement strategy. Interested contractors should monitor the regional office's solicitation channels for routine operational purchases in facilities management, IT equipment, and office supplies, where Kyocera and smaller regional vendors currently dominate.
