U.S. Marshals Service's contract dollars, traced to the source.
U.S. Marshals Service · Department of Justice
The U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) is the Department of Justice's federal enforcement arm responsible for apprehending fugitives, protecting the judiciary, transporting prisoners, and holding detainees in federal criminal custody. Its contract dollars are overwhelmingly detention-driven: the largest FY2025 awards are private detention-facility services from The GEO Group and CoreCivic (each in the $560M-$800M range), followed by nationwide detainee health-care delivery from Heritage Health Solutions. Custody, detention, and prisoner medical services dominate the roughly $1.30B in FY2025 contract obligations, with little going to weapons, IT, or construction.

What this monitor reads — and what it doesn't
This is the contract-signal tier: the live USAspending award feed for the U.S. Marshals Service awarding sub-agency. It shows where USMS's procurement dollars go — obligations over time and the largest awards — not total budget authority, which also includes payroll, grants, and transfers. Figures reflect the contract (procurement) slice reported in USAspending, not USMS's total budget authority. The appropriation-level view lives on the Department of Justice monitor.
