About this agency
The Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division, a civilian sub-agency within the Department of Labor, enforces federal wage and hour laws and administers compliance programs across the economy. The Division awards contracts to support investigations, compliance assistance, technology systems, and administrative functions required to carry out its enforcement and regulatory mission.
The Wage and Hour Division has issued 606 federal contract awards cumulatively since 2009, with combined potential value of $242 million and combined dollars obligated of $179.4 million (74% of potential value). Recent activity has declined: the Division awarded 15 contracts in 2022, 17 in 2023, 13 in 2024, 8 in 2025, and 11 year-to-date in 2026. Across the portfolio, 265 distinct prime contractors have been awarded at least one contract. The most recent recorded award date is 2026-09-26.
Competitive concentration is highly fragmented by potential value; the top five primes by value hold only 12 percent of combined potential value over the last five years. Horizon Industries, LIMITED leads by value with one award worth $14.7 million, followed by Eastern Research Group Inc. with four awards totaling $12.2 million. The remaining competitive landscape is dispersed across vendors with smaller individual contract values. By award count over the last five years, concentration is moderately concentrated: the top five primes by count hold 36 percent of recent awards. Talu LLC leads by count with 8 awards, followed by Heritage Interiors LLC with 5 awards; the remaining primes collectively account for the balance. The Division transacts heavily through open competition without set-aside restrictions — 83 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small business set-asides account for 10 percent of awards, with 8(a) sole-source awards representing 3 percent. The remaining awards are split across SDVOSB (1 percent), WOSB (0 percent), and other specialized designations at negligible volumes.
No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the Division in the source data. No grant activity is present in the source material.
