Homeland Security discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Homeland Security's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
A nation-wide program that provides contracted security guards stationed onsite at FPS-protected Federal facilities. PSOs are professionally trained in the protection of life and property and are certified in the use of firearms, batons, magnetometers, and X-ray machines.
Extracted from Office of the Secretary and Executive Management, p. 5. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
Contracts funded by this line
82 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
