Office of General Counsel

The Department of Justice Office of General Counsel, a sub-office within the DOJ's internal legal structure, procures legal and administrative support services and contracted expertise for the department's centralized legal operations. The Office has recorded minimal contract activity relative to larger DOJ components, issuing six awards cumulatively since 2018 with a combined potential value of $354 thousand. Recent award cadence shows sporadic activity: one award in 2022, one in 2023, one in 2024, and one in 2025 year-to-date, with no awards recorded in earlier years within the last five-year window. All dollars obligated against the combined potential value have been drawn down.

Competitive concentration among recent primes is highly fragmented across five distinct contractors. Synthesis Inc. leads by potential value at $267 thousand (75% of the most recent five-year combined value) from a single award, while LRP Publications, Inc. holds two awards totaling $6 thousand and World Wide Technology LLC holds one award at $12 thousand. The remaining two contractors awarded within the portfolio history each received one award; their combined potential value is not reported in source data. By-count distribution spans these five vendors evenly across six lifetime awards.

The set-aside mix is dominated by open competition: 83 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation, while 17 percent are small-business set-asides. No recent contract opportunities are recorded in the portfolio summary. The Office's contract footprint remains minimal and episodic; it does not represent a high-volume or high-dollar procurement venue for vendors targeting federal legal-services or administrative-support work.
