About security services contracts in Massachusetts
Security services contracts in Massachusetts typically cover armed and unarmed guard services at federal courthouses, X-ray and magnetometer screening, perimeter patrols at DOE sites, and access-control staffing at military installations. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services), and the bulk of the work flows to the U.S. Marshals Service, GSA Federal Protective Service, DoD, and the Department of Energy. Many guard contracts are SDVOSB set-asides and require a state-issued private-security license in the place of performance.
Massachusetts currently has 6 open security services contracts in our database, with 4 added in the last 30 days. That's a steady cadence — enough flow to make automated alerting worthwhile rather than manual portal-checking. The most active buyers are DEPT OF THE AIR FORCE (4 open posts) and Department of Developmental Services (1), with the rest spread across other federal civilian agencies, DoD components, and state and local departments active in Massachusetts.
Beyond federal opportunities, much of the security services work in Massachusetts is posted through COMMBUYS, with recurring buyers including MassDOT, the MBTA, and University of Massachusetts campuses. Massachusetts uses statewide contracts (SWCs) — once you're on a relevant SWC, agencies can buy from you without re-soliciting. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a security-services firm doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
