Virginia State Office

The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Virginia State Office is a sub-agency within USDA that procures appraisal and related services to support rural housing programs in Virginia. The office has awarded 127 federal contracts since 2018, though activity has been minimal in recent years, with the most recent award dating to January 2022.

Contract activity was front-loaded in the portfolio: 104 awards were issued in 2019, followed by sharp declines to 5 awards in 2020, 3 in 2021, and 1 in 2022. The combined award potential value across all 127 contracts totals $105 thousand, with $105 thousand obligated. The low aggregate value reflects the small-dollar nature of individual appraisal and professional-services awards typical of this office's mission. Seventeen distinct prime contractors have been awarded contracts over the portfolio history.

Competitive concentration is highly fragmented. Axis Appraisal Management Solutions is the sole contractor appearing in the top-by-count and top-by-value rankings over the last five years, holding 1 award valued at $625. This single award represents 100 percent of recent awards by count and 1 percent of combined potential value, indicating that the remaining 16 contractors were awarded sporadically across the portfolio and the bulk of contract value is distributed across many small transactions.

About 72 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation, while 28 percent are designated as Total Small Business set-asides, reflecting a typical mix for a small-dollar procurement portfolio at a state-level office.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the Virginia State Office. The absence of current solicitations and the four-year gap since the most recent award suggest the office is not actively releasing new contract opportunities at this time. Firms pursuing work with this office should verify current demand directly with the state office rather than relying on recent open solicitations.
