Market Intelligence —
Security Guards in Montana
Montana's Security Guards Services market is highly concentrated: Unknown alone accounts for 40% of the state's 5 active opportunities in Q2 2026, with Unknown, Libby, Hardin collectively representing 100% of all activity. This concentration pattern creates a two-tier market — contractors must establish presence in Unknown to access the majority of deal flow, while secondary markets offer lower-volume but less competitive opportunities.
In Montana, Security Guards Services procurement concentrates in two primary agencies: Office of Procurement Operations (38%) and U.S. Marshals Service (38%). With 77% of 52 total awards between them and $168.1M in obligated spending, these agencies define the competitive landscape. Contractors should align their capability statements and teaming strategies to these agencies' acquisition preferences. On the vendor side, the market is incumbent-heavy: the top 3 contractors — DOMESTIC AWARDEES (UNDISCLOSED), KERMAX, LLC, CDA INC — hold 76% of recent awards, meaning new entrants face significant barriers unless targeting recompetes or set-asides.
