About METROPOLITAN SECURITY SERVICES, INC. federal contract activity
METROPOLITAN SECURITY SERVICES, INC. (CAGE 3C9W7, UEI M8XJCDL1AE26) recorded $2.38 billion in obligated awards across 6,187 actions over the last 10 years, with an average award value of $384,975.19. The profile is heavily concentrated in a single service category, indicating a sustained federal role in security guard and patrol operations rather than a diversified contract base.
Agency mix and customer concentration
The U.S. MARSHALS SERVICE accounts for the overwhelming majority of obligations, at $2.28 billion across 5,896 awards, making it the dominant customer by a wide margin. Secondary activity is much smaller and is concentrated in OFFICES, BOARDS AND DIVISIONS and the DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA COURTS, while PUBLIC BUILDINGS SERVICE represents a minimal share. The CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION shows a small net negative obligation over two awards, which is unusual relative to the broader award pattern.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
NAICS 561612, Security Guards and Patrol Services, explains essentially all of the vendor’s federal activity, with $2.38 billion and 6,186 awards over the period. The only other recorded NAICS is 541320, Landscape Architectural Services, at $16,262.40 and one award, which is immaterial to the overall mix. This indicates a highly specialized procurement footprint with little category diversification.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Annual obligations have remained strong and accelerated in recent years, rising from $220.0 million in 2021 to $566.85 million in 2025. Award counts fluctuated by year, with a peak of 1,045 awards in 2024, suggesting that growth in total obligations has not been driven solely by transaction volume. The pattern points to continued high federal demand for the vendor’s core security services.
