Nebraska State Office

The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Nebraska State Office is a sub-agency within USDA that finances and manages housing loan programs for rural residents and communities across Nebraska. The office administers direct loans, guaranteed loans, and grant programs to support homeownership, rental housing development, and community facilities in rural areas where conventional financing is unavailable or insufficient.

The Nebraska State Office has awarded 232 federal contracts since 2016, with combined potential value of $187 thousand and $183 thousand obligated. Recent contract activity is minimal: two awards in 2020, then one award each in 2021, 2022, and 2023, followed by two awards in 2024. The most recent contract award closed in November 2024. The agency contracts with 42 distinct prime contractors across its portfolio history, predominantly for support services, relocation assistance, and equipment procurement.

Over the last five years, the competitive landscape is highly fragmented. No single prime contractor dominates the award pipeline; the top four awardees by both count and value each hold only one award. Relocation Strategies Arizona LLC leads by combined potential value at $32 thousand, followed by Eakes, Inc. at $13 thousand, Solution Planning And Contract Environment, Inc. at $7 thousand, and A.B.C. Electric Company, Inc. at $6 thousand. These four primes account for $58 thousand of the $187 thousand total potential value. The remaining 38 contractors in the portfolio share the residual awards at much smaller transaction sizes.

The set-aside mix reflects primarily open-market procurement: 196 of 232 awards (84%) carry no set-aside designation. Small Business set-asides account for 35 awards (15%), and one award (under 1%) is designated as Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise. The low transaction volumes and small dollar values suggest the office executes routine administrative and operational support contracts rather than major capital or service-delivery procurements.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the Nebraska State Office. The agency's contracting activity appears episodic and support-focused rather than pipeline-driven; BD professionals should monitor the office's forecast notices and SAM.gov solicitations for occasional opportunities aligned with rural housing loan administration, relocation services, or facility maintenance.
