DHS Homeland Security Contracts

By Gunpowder Editorial ·

4 total filings analysed

Executive Summary

DHS awarded $162,816,193 in four civilian contracts (0/4 defense-related) for low-tech support services, dominated by ICE detention security (Akima $49.4M) and FLETC facility/housing management (Greenlight $43.8M, T47 $35M obligation/$99.6M potential). All signals neutral (avg 4.0/10 strength), with highest-conviction theme of stable DHS spending on janitorial, housing, and security at training/detention centers amid full competition or set-asides.

Aggregate materiality led by T47 (6/10) and Akima (5/10), adding ~$140M+ in near-term backlog for small/disadvantaged firms. Key risk: high fixed-price execution risks on $128.3M (Akima, Greenlight, T47); watch outlay progress (e.g., Akima $30.6M of $49.4M disbursed, T47 $2.9M of $35M).

  • High Fixed-Price Risks on $128M+ Across Akima, Greenlight, T47 (HIGH)

Risk Flags (3)

  • Execution [HIGH RISK]

  • Budget [MEDIUM RISK]

    Low outlays signal funding delays: Greenlight $0 outlayed on $43.8M BPA call; T47 $2.9M on $35M; WSP $9M on $34.5M FEMA despite long performance periods.

  • Competition [MEDIUM RISK]

    Unknown competition signals and no moats noted for all four awards, including full/open post-exclusion (Akima) and 8(a) set-asides (T47), vulnerable to re-competes.
