County Of Coos

County Of Coos, doing business as Coos County Nursing Hospital, is a U.S. local government entity based in West Stewartstown, New Hampshire that operates detention and correctional services for federal detainees, as well as victim advocacy and law enforcement support services funded through federal grants. The vendor holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of Homeland Security's Customs and Border Protection for detention center services and receives direct federal grants and subgrants for community policing, domestic violence prosecution, victim services, and rural economic development.

County Of Coos operates as a federal grant recipient (41% of recent awards as prime) and as a subrecipient under state-administered pass-through grants (59% of recent awards). The vendor does not hold federal prime contracts except for the CBP detention services BPA; instead, the core work is grant-funded through the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security.

The vendor's prime federal footprint is sparse. A single-award BPA with CBP, awarded September 30, 2025, with a ceiling of $15,927.60 through July 31, 2030, covers detention center services across eight locations in Vermont and Northern New York, with per-diem billing to the U.S. Marshals Service detention standards. County Of Coos has issued two task orders under this BPA, each with a $3,000 ceiling, for secure custody, medical care, meals, and detainee safety at the Coos County Detention Center in Swanton, Vermont. A $125,000 grant award from the Department of Justice Community Oriented Policing Program (COPS Hiring Program, CFDA 16.068) dated October 1, 2025, runs through September 30, 2030, and funds law enforcement officer hiring and community policing capacity expansion in West Stewartstown.

Customer concentration is diffuse across criminal-justice and victim-services agencies. The Department of Justice dominates by award count — Victims of Crime (4 awards) and the Office on Violence Against Women (3 awards) account for seven of the vendor's seventeen tracked awards — but DHS Customs and Border Protection represents 100% of combined potential-value exposure at $22,000 across its three detention-services awards. The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service, the Community Oriented Policing Program, and state justice offices round out the agency set.

County Of Coos operates predominantly as a subrecipient under the New Hampshire Department of Justice Office of the Attorney General, receiving subgrants for domestic violence prosecution personnel (multiple awards since 2023), victim advocate and victim/witness program services (awards in 2024, 2025, and 2026), and Operation Stonegarden border-security and law-enforcement coordination funding (awards in 2024, 2025, and 2026). Recent grant activity has accelerated from one award in 2021 to seven awards in 2025, though the combined potential value across all seventeen awards remains modest at $22,000 — the discrepancy reflects that obligated dollars ($568,000) substantially exceed potential value, indicating actual invoiced performance and grant drawdowns exceed the source's stated ceiling estimates. One award (the $3,000 CBP detention call) reaches completion inside the next twenty-four months and faces recompete.
