The U.S. Marshals Service, South Dakota District (USMS SD) is a component of the Department of Justice responsible for protecting the federal judiciary, apprehending federal fugitives, managing and selling seized assets, housing and transporting federal prisoners, and operating the Witness Security Program. As the nation's oldest federal law enforcement agency, the USMS SD provides critical security and law enforcement services throughout South Dakota's federal court system. The agency works closely with other federal, state, and local law enforcement partners to ensure the effective administration of justice within its jurisdiction. The USMS SD's contracting activity in FY2025 primarily focuses on security guard services, with multiple purchase orders issued on October 1, 2024, to Domestic Awardees for district guard support services in Sioux Falls. These contracts, ranging from $12,000 to $32,000, are labor hour purchase orders supporting the USMS's need for security personnel to guard and process federal prisoners in cellblocks, courtrooms, and during transport, as well as guard federal, seized, or forfeited property. The contracts appear to be part of a broader effort to recruit District/Aviation Security Officers to assist the agency on an "on call/as needed" basis through September 30, 2025. None of these contracts were set aside for any specific business category. In addition to security personnel services, the USMS SD has made investments in tactical equipment to support its law enforcement operations. In July and August 2024, the agency awarded contracts for ammunition and firearms, including a $22,729.50 firm-fixed price delivery order to Vista Outdoor Sales LLC for 556mm ammunition and a $10,362.96 order for 9mm ammunition. The USMS also issued a $6,868.24 purchase order to Sage International LTD, a veteran-owned business, for firearms, weapons, and related accessories. These procurements support the agency's tactical requirements and ensure that personnel are properly equipped to fulfill their law enforcement duties throughout the District of South Dakota.
