Nevada State Office

The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Nevada State Office, a sub-agency of USDA, administers federal rural housing loan guarantees and direct-lending programs across Nevada. The office funds housing development, repair, and preservation activities for eligible rural borrowers through its contracting and lending operations.

Contract activity at the Nevada office is minimal and declining. Since 2012, the office has issued 456 contract awards totaling $461 thousand in combined potential value, with $429 thousand obligated. Annual volume has contracted sharply: 46 awards in 2018, 25 in 2019, then 3 in 2020, 3 in 2021, and 1 in 2023, with no awards recorded since June 2023. The office works with a small vendor base—38 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio history—and award values are consistently below the $1 million threshold. Federal Prison Industries, Inc. holds the only recorded award in the last five years (1 award, $32 thousand), representing 100 percent of recent award count and 7 percent of recent combined potential value, though the extremely low transaction volume makes concentration metrics less decision-relevant than the underlying absence of activity.

Nearly all awards bypass set-asides: 440 awards (96 percent) carry no set-aside designation, and 16 awards (4 percent) are small-business set-asides. No 8(a), WOSB, SDVOSB, or HUBZone awards are recorded.

The source contains no recent contract opportunities or grant-award data. No federal contract solicitations are currently open against the Nevada office, and no grant opportunities are listed. The sharp decline in contract volume since 2018 and the absence of awards for over three years suggest minimal current procurement activity. This office is primarily a lending and guaranty operation rather than an active service-contracting entity, and pursuit should be contingent on confirmation of active opportunities outside the datasets provided.
