About the company

Written by GovTribe AI ·

County of Kern, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Bakersfield, California, has served as both a prime contractor and grant recipient for federal agencies since its registration in the System for Award Management in 2003. The County Administrative Office Division oversees a diverse portfolio of federal contract and grant awards that support public safety, community development, social services, and infrastructure initiatives across Kern County. As a established government entity, County of Kern leverages federal funding to deliver essential programs and services that address regional needs in criminal justice, housing, public health, transportation, and workforce development.

County of Kern has maintained a modest but consistent federal contracting presence, primarily through purchase order arrangements with the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Bureau of Land Management. The entity received multiple $4,800 firm fixed-price purchase orders from the DEA between October 2021 and September 2025 to provide information technology services for the Kern County Law Enforcement Telecommunication System (CLETS), supporting the DEA's controlled substances enforcement mission. Additionally, the County of Kern was awarded an $82,329.06 purchase order by the Bureau of Land Management in August 2022, subsequently modified through 2026, to deliver Kern County Sheriff's patrol assistance supporting BLM operations in the Bakersfield area. These contracts were awarded without set-aside designations and demonstrate the County's capacity to provide specialized law enforcement support and IT services to federal agencies.

County of Kern has been substantially more active in the federal grants arena, receiving numerous prime and sub-awards across multiple HUD community development and housing programs as well as justice and social service initiatives. The County has received multiple formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, including HOME Investment Partnerships Program awards totaling over $1.7 million (awarded December 2025 with completion through 2034), Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) Entitlement Grants, and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) for homelessness prevention and rapid rehousing, with the most recent ESG award of $398,675 running through December 2027. The County has also secured significant Department of Justice funding, including a $2.5 million National Sexual Assault Kit Initiative grant to test approximately 750 unsubmitted sexual assault kits through partnerships with the Sheriff's Office, District Attorney, and other county forensic entities, as well as DNA Capacity Enhancement and Backlog Reduction Formula Grants supporting the Kern Regional Crime Laboratory with average annual completion of 700 DNA cases. Beyond housing and justice programs, County of Kern has received Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration grants supporting airport improvements at Meadows Field, infrastructure study updates, and COVID-19 economic relief; workforce development grants through the Employment and Training Administration supporting migrant and seasonal farmworker employment and training; and sub-awards from California state agencies for child welfare services, SNAP administration, foster care, health immunization programs, transportation improvements, and victim services. The County's grant portfolio reflects its role as a comprehensive service delivery organization addressing homelessness, affordable housing, criminal justice, public health, transportation infrastructure, and social service needs throughout the Kern County region.
