US Marshals Service Witness Security Division

The Department of Justice US Marshals Service Witness Security Division is a civilian sub-agency that procures protective services, operational support, and logistics to administer the federal witness protection program. The Division operates within the Justice Department's broader law-enforcement mission and handles contracts for housing, relocation services, identity management, security operations, and program administration across the continental United States and overseas locations where protected witnesses reside.

The Division's contract portfolio spans 445 awards totaling $138.2 million in combined potential value since 2004, with $83.3 million obligated to date. Recent award volume has accelerated: 10 awards in 2022, 9 in 2023, 16 in 2024, 14 in 2025, and 22 year-to-date in 2026. The Division works across 198 distinct prime contractors, indicating a fragmented competitive landscape. Over the last five years, Thundercat Technology, LLC and Mayvin, Inc. each hold 5 awards; Metropolitan Security Services, Inc. leads by combined potential value at $10.5 million across 4 awards. The top five primes by award count cover 30 percent of recent awards, while the top five by combined potential value cover 15 percent — a moderately concentrated competitive structure driven more by contract volume and frequency than by dollar concentration. Most activity bypasses set-aside designations: 89 percent of awards carry no set-aside, while small-business set-asides account for 9 percent; 8(a) Sole Source, HUBZone, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business each represent 1 percent of the portfolio.

The Division recorded no recent contract opportunities or grant opportunities in the source data. The most recent award closed on October 15, 2026, indicating current transactional activity, but no open solicitations are documented in the current digest.
