USDA FSA Ohio State Office

The Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency Ohio State Office is a civilian state-level sub-office of the USDA Farm Service Agency that manages agricultural programs, conservation initiatives, and related services for farms and landowners in Ohio. The Ohio State Office transacts primarily through small contracts for equipment, facilities management, conservation district support, and operational services.

The agency has awarded 61 total federal contracts since 2012, with highly fragmented competitive concentration. Over the last five years, the top five primes by award count—Lorain Soil & Water Conservation District, C&M Expedited LLC, Moi Inc., Accushred LLC, and SLM Contract Furniture Inc.—account for 60% of recent awards. By potential value, the same five primes represent 40% of combined potential value, led by SLM Contract Furniture Inc. at $181 thousand, followed by Accushred LLC at $137 thousand. The remaining 32 primes awarded over the last five years hold the residual awards and value, indicating a long tail of small, occasional vendors. Recent award volume is sparse: one award each in 2024 and 2025 year-to-date, down from five awards in 2021, seven in 2022, and one in 2023. The combined award potential value across the portfolio stands at $1.2 million, with $999 thousand obligated to date. One of the ten recent awards carried no reported potential value, typical of Schedule task orders, BPA calls, modifications, or below-threshold purchase orders.

The set-aside mix is heavily skewed toward unrestricted awards: 87% of all awards carry no set-aside designation, while 13% are total small-business set-asides. No awards are designated 8(a), WOSB, SDVOSB, or HUBZone.

The Ohio State Office has not issued recent contract solicitations. No contract opportunities are recorded against the agency or its descendant offices as of the current date.
