NRC Region 4

Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region 4, a civilian sub-agency of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, executes federal contracts in support of the agency's regulatory mission and operational activities across the south-central United States.

Region 4 has issued 426 federal contract awards since 2006, with combined potential value of $22.6 million and $12.6 million in obligated dollars. Activity has declined sharply in recent years: 15 awards in 2021, followed by 4 in 2022, 4 in 2023, 1 in 2024, and 1 in 2025 year-to-date. No recent contract awards are recorded against the region as of the source date, with the most recent award dated September 2025. The region has engaged 176 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio history.

The contract portfolio is highly fragmented by award count and highly fragmented by potential value. Compu Dynamics LLC leads on both dimensions, holding 3 awards worth $337 thousand in combined potential value among the last five years of activity. TD Industries Inc. and Centurytel of Northwest Arkansas, LLC each hold 2 awards; the remaining top primes have 1 award each. The top five contractors by count account for 43 percent of recent awards but only 3 percent of recent combined potential value, reflecting the small-dollar, high-frequency nature of Region 4's contracting profile. The vast majority of awards carry no specific dollar reporting.

Set-aside activity is minimal. Ninety-eight percent of awards carry no set-aside designation; Total Small Business accounts for 1 percent (6 awards), 8(a) Sole Source for zero percent (2 awards), and Competitive 8(a) for zero percent (1 award).

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against Region 4 in the source data. The sharp decline in award count over the past five years, coupled with the absence of recorded opportunities, suggests the region's contracting activity has contracted materially or has shifted to vehicles and sub-offices not captured in this rollup.
