Utah State Office

The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Utah State Office is a sub-agency within USDA that administers housing loans and grants to rural residents and communities in Utah, operating through the federal contracting system for procurement of goods and services supporting its mission delivery.

The Rural Housing Service Utah State Office has closed 750 federal contract awards since 2015, with activity concentrated in the earlier years of the portfolio. Award volume declined sharply in recent years: 190 awards in 2016, 248 in 2017, 170 in 2018, 134 in 2019, and 7 in 2020. The most recent recorded award closed on September 23, 2020. Combined award potential value across the entire portfolio is $545 thousand, with $545 thousand obligated, indicating awards at modest per-transaction scale typical of administrative support or commodity purchases.

The competitive base is highly fragmented. Forty-five distinct prime contractors have been awarded across the portfolio, with no concentration data reported for the top performers. The contracting mix is dominated by small-business set-asides: 569 awards (76% of total) carried Total Small Business designations, while 179 awards (24%) received no set-aside. Two awards (0.3% of total) were designated as Partial Small Business.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the agency. The most recent award on file closed more than six years ago, and no open solicitations or upcoming contract opportunities are present in the source data. This portfolio reflects historical procurement activity that has substantially concluded; active business-development engagement at this office is not supported by current market signals.
