Federal janitorial and grounds contracts ending by 2027

The Army, the Forest Service and Veterans Affairs together hold more than half of the list. Veterans Affairs has the most value, at $72.7 million.

Pick the contracts in places you can staff, then watch SAM.gov for the agency's next notice on each one, usually a sources sought or presolicitation notice some months before the end date.

1. Filter the table by state, or download the CSV and sort it by end date.
2. Open each contract on USAspending.gov by its contract number (PIID) to see the history, the place of performance and the amounts.
3. Save a SAM.gov search for the agency and place with the NAICS code (561720, 561730 or 561210) so you see the sources sought notice when it comes.
4. Answer the sources sought notice: it is how a small business helps the contracting officer decide on a set-aside.
5. Visit the site if the agency allows it, and price from the wage determination for that county.

From federal contract awards in NAICS 561720, 561730 and 561210 since October 2023, as published on USAspending.gov, keeping standalone contracts whose last option period ends by December 31, 2027.

• Source: the USAspending.gov API (public FPDS data), pulled November 4, 2026.
• End date: the potential end date with all options exercised.
• Only standalone contracts and purchase orders; orders under a larger contract (IDIQ or BPA) are left out.
• Only contracts held by small businesses that do janitorial or landscaping work, with $250,000 to $40 million of federal work in these codes since October 2023.
• Value: the base and all options, as reported. Bidders and set-aside: as reported for the last award.
• Incumbent names are left out on purpose. They are public on USAspending.gov.

Whether or when the agency will bid the work again. Dates move: agencies extend contracts, combine them, bring work in-house or buy it through a larger contract.

FAR 17.204 generally limits a services contract to five years including options, and the option to extend services clause (FAR 52.217-8) lets an agency extend for up to six more months. So an end date is a strong signal, not a promise. Large-business contracts and task orders are not in this list, so the real number of recompetes is higher.
