About this agency
United States Penitentiary McCreary, a sub-agency of the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons, procures goods and services for a federal correctional facility and manages institutional purchasing across inmate services, facility operations, maintenance, and food service. The facility sources supplies and services from a regional and national vendor base, with administrative and operational purchase authority vested in the McCreary institution.
The facility has awarded 4,756 federal contracts since 2009, with $159.4 million in combined potential value and $154.9 million obligated (97% of potential value). Activity has declined modestly over the last five years: 210 awards in 2022, 195 in 2023, 132 in 2024, 115 in 2025, and 100 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award closed on 2 October 2026. Across the entire portfolio, 535 distinct prime contractors have been awarded.
Competition is moderately concentrated among current active primes. Over the last five years, the top five contractors by award count — Mckesson Corporation (150 awards, $6 million potential value), Seven Corners Inc. (68 awards, $24.9 million potential value), Shaver Foods LLC (28 awards, $1.8 million potential value), Kebros & Associates LLC (28 awards, $1 million potential value), and Federal Prison Industries, Inc. (23 awards, $760 thousand potential value) — account for 38% of recent awards. By potential value, concentration is lighter: Seven Corners Inc., Mckesson Corporation, McCreary County Water District (8 awards, $2.3 million potential value), Shaver Foods LLC, and South Kentucky Rural Electric Cooperative Corporation (10 awards, $1.4 million potential value) hold 23% of combined potential value. Seven Corners Inc. leads on both dimensions and is the primary supplier by dollar value, whereas Mckesson dominates by award frequency.
The set-aside portfolio skews heavily toward open-market competition: 72% of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small-business set-asides account for 28% of awards (1,310 awards), with the remaining small-business designations — SDVOSB, 8(a) sole source, reserved, competitive 8(a), partial small business, and woman-owned categories — collectively representing fewer than 50 awards across all categories.
No recent federal contract solicitations are recorded against McCreary. No federal grant activity is reported for this sub-agency.
