Town Of Lancaster

Town Of Lancaster Police Department, a municipal law enforcement agency based in Lancaster, New York, operates as a federal contractor and grant recipient providing law enforcement support services and facilities to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Customs and Border Protection, and the Department of Justice. The department competes in full-and-open contracting without set-aside designations, functioning primarily as a prime contractor (71% of awards) and secondarily as a sub-recipient on state-administered federal grants.

The department's federal capability portfolio centers on specialized law enforcement facilities and training support. Primary contract work includes the rental of secured parking facilities for law enforcement vehicle storage — a $18,000 purchase order from ICE awarded February 2026 for storage and deployment of up to 164 government vehicles through February 2027 — and the operation of a secure indoor firing range for federal officer firearms training. Representative contracts include a $105,000 ICE purchase order for firing range rental (awarded April 2022, completion April 2027) and a $130,800 ICE purchase order for secure asset storage supporting ICE's Special Response Team operations based in the Buffalo field office (awarded August 2021, completion September 2026). The department also holds a $734,400 single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with Customs and Border Protection through July 2028 for firing range training facility access.

Federal grant work flows through state intermediaries. The department receives sub-awards from the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services and the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, including FY22/23 Byrne SCIP programming (February 2026) and youth and emergency-response funding. The department also holds a prime grant award from the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development (February 2023, completion August 2031) and received a Community Oriented Policing Program Technology and Equipment Program grant from the Department of Justice in December 2022.

Customer concentration is moderate. Immigration and Customs Enforcement accounts for six awards and $308,000 in combined potential value; Customs and Border Protection anchors the dollar rankings with the single $734,400 BPA; and the Department of Justice and Federal Emergency Management Agency round out active federal customers. Total awards number fourteen over the source history, with combined potential value of $1 million against obligated dollars of $1.3 million. Activity has remained steady at two to three awards per year from 2021 through 2024. Three awards (combined potential value $254,000) reach completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure, including the ICE firing range contract and the secure asset storage purchase order.
