Arizona Region

The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Arizona Region is a civilian sub-agency that procures environmental remediation, land management, and infrastructure services to support stewardship of Bureau-managed public lands across Arizona.

The Arizona Region's contract portfolio totals 2,492 awards since 2004, with combined potential value of $155.6 million and $148.3 million obligated (95% of potential). Activity has ranged from 61 to 96 awards per year over the last five years—61 awards in 2022, 90 in 2023, 96 in 2024, 61 in 2025, and 45 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award closed on September 25, 2026. The competitive landscape is highly fragmented: the top five prime contractors by award count account for only 13 percent of recent awards and are concentrated in environmental and biological survey work. Envirosystems Management Inc. leads with 17 awards and $3.2 million combined potential value; Cornerstone Environmental Consulting LLC, Rr&K Kramme, Rlllp, Harris Environmental Group Inc., and Water, Civil And Environmental Incorporated follow with smaller award volumes and dollar weight. Across the portfolio history, 1,049 distinct prime contractors have received awards. The set-aside mix reflects primarily open competition—67 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small-business set-asides account for 30 percent of awards, while sole-source 8(a), SDVOSB, WOSB, competitive 8(a), HUBZone, and Indian small-business designations each represent less than 1 percent of the portfolio.

The Arizona Region has awarded 155 grants totaling $37.7 million in federal dollars obligated (and $42.7 million including non-federal match) since 2013. Grant activity shows volatility—3 awards in 2022, 6 in 2023, 24 in 2024, 6 in 2025, and 1 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent grant award was issued on February 10, 2026. All 155 grants are structured as Cooperative Agreements. Grant recipient concentration is moderately concentrated: the top five recipients by award count account for 68 percent of recent awards, led by Conservation Legacy with 9 awards and $1.9 million federal dollars obligated, followed by National Experienced Workforce Solutions Inc., Arizona Department of Game and Fish, Arizona Association of Conservation Districts Inc., and University of Arizona. By federal dollars, concentration is fragmented at 19 percent of recent funding; Arizona Department of Game and Fish, Arizona Association of Conservation Districts Inc., and Conservation Legacy each hold $1.9 million, while Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management and Sky Island Alliance follow with smaller commitments. The grant portfolio spans 49 distinct recipients.
