US Marshals Service Central PA

The Department of Justice US Marshals Service Central PA is a civilian sub-agency that procures equipment, services, and supplies to support law enforcement and detention operations across its regional jurisdiction. The office has issued 357 federal contract awards since 2010, with activity averaging 21 awards per year over the last five years. The portfolio reflects modest scale: combined award potential value stands at $4.1 million, with $2.8 million obligated to date.

Contract competitive concentration is highly fragmented by award count and by potential value. Domestic Awardees (Undisclosed) account for 85 of 106 awards in the last five years and $848 thousand in combined potential value, but represent a diverse base of unnamed vendors rather than a single dominant prime. The next identifiable awardees—Hornady Manufacturing Company with five awards worth $84 thousand, and Glock, Inc. and Daniel Defense, LLC each with two awards—combined cover only a small fraction of recent activity. The distribution across 47 distinct primes lifetime suggests low repeat-business concentration; most vendors win only once or twice. Recent awards show 10 of 106 (9 percent) with no reported potential value, a pattern consistent with Schedule task orders, BPA calls, modifications, and below-threshold purchase orders.

The set-aside landscape is minimal: 96 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small Business set-asides account for 3 percent of awards (12 total), and a single 8(a) Sole Source award rounds the remainder. This mix indicates the office predominantly buys off-the-shelf or competitively-source equipment and services without leveraging small-business or socioeconomic set-asides.

Award volume has declined modestly in recent years, dropping from 24 awards in 2022 to 17 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award closed on 2026-10-01. No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the office in available data, and the portfolio contains no grant activity.
