US Marshals Service Eastern KY

The Department of Justice US Marshals Service Eastern KY is the regional contracting office for the U.S. Marshals Service, which operates federal detention facilities, executes court orders, and manages law enforcement support functions across Eastern Kentucky. The office transacts through direct procurement for operational and facility-management goods and services.

The Eastern KY office has awarded 375 federal contracts since October 2012, with recent activity holding steady at 22–29 awards per year from 2022 through 2025, and 23 awards year-to-date in 2026. Combined potential value across the portfolio is $8.4 million, of which $7.9 million has been obligated. Approximately 19 percent of recent awards (24 of 127 over the last five years) carry no reported potential value, indicating significant reliance on Schedule task orders, BPA calls, modifications, or below-threshold purchase orders that fall outside formal valuation reporting.

Competitive concentration is highly fragmented by award count but highly concentrated by dollar value. Over the last five years, 51 distinct contractors have won awards, yet the top five primes by award count hold 92 percent of recent awards. The top primes by award count are dominated by "Domestic Awardees (Undisclosed)" at 108 awards ($1 million combined potential value), followed by Chitina Diversified Services, LLC (3 awards, $5.4 million), Southern Police Equipment Company, Inc. (2 awards, $6 thousand), Charter Communications Operating LLC (2 awards, $240 thousand), and L & W Emergency Services Equipment LLC (2 awards, $26 thousand). When ranked by dollar value, Chitina Diversified Services, LLC leads with $5.4 million across three awards, followed by Domestic Awardees (Undisclosed) at $1 million across 108 awards. The wide divergence reflects task-order or BPA-call structures with individual task values below the reporting threshold, concentrated against a small core of named contractors.

Set-asides play a minimal role: 94 percent of awards (354) carry no set-aside designation, while 5 percent (18 awards) are small-business set-asides and 1 percent (3 awards) are 8(a) sole-source awards.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the office. The portfolio shows active transactional activity but no open solicitations in the capture window.
