About the company
Halfway House, Inc., doing business as Pharos House, is a Portland, Maine-based nonprofit organization that operates a 15-bed residential reentry center and provides home confinement services to the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons as a 100% prime contractor under firm-fixed-price delivery orders. The vendor competes exclusively on full-and-open (non-set-aside) civilian federal work with no subcontract footprint.
Pharos House delivers transitional housing, offender monitoring, programming, and comprehensive support services for individuals completing sentences or awaiting community placement. Recent representative awards include a $1.148 million delivery order for Option Year 6 (September 2025 through August 2026) from the Bureau of Prisons Central Office, a $815,932 delivery order (September 2024 through August 2025) for the same scope, and a $1.126 million task order (October 2022 through August 2023) to fund FY23 residential reentry center and home confinement services in Portland. All work is performed within Portland city limits.
Customer concentration is absolute and permanent. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Central Office accounts for 34 awards valued at $40.5 million (85% of total awards, 87% of combined potential value across recent activity). The vendor serves no other active federal customers. Pharos House holds multiple delivery orders under parent indefinite delivery contracts with the Bureau of Prisons: Indefinite Delivery Contract 15BRRC19D00000003 (11 task orders, $7.2 million combined potential value), Indefinite Delivery Contract DJB200125 (12 task orders, $5.1 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract DJB200888 (7 task orders, $3.8 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract J200C589 (6 task orders, $1.9 million), and Indefinite Delivery Contract J200C301 (8 task orders). The parent IDC with the Bureau of Prisons carrying these delivery orders has a potential total value exceeding $12 million, with Pharos House as a single-award contractor since 2005.
Activity is sparse and level. The vendor recorded two awards in 2024, two in 2025, and one in 2026, following a single award each in 2022 and 2023 — a pattern reflecting annual or biennial renewal delivery orders against the standing IDC. Across 59 total awards dating to 1991, combined potential value stands at $46.7 million with $22.8 million obligated (49% realization). Only one award with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months faces recompete ($112 thousand ceiling value), indicating that most Pharos House awards are structured as evergreen renewal options under the existing Bureau of Prisons parent contracts rather than competitive rebids. The vendor's capability footprint is categorized entirely under NAICS Other Residential Care Facilities (53 awards) and PSC Social Rehabilitation (59 awards).
