About this award

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers awarded a $2.05 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to Red Bison Services, LLC on May 15, 2023, for Drain 27 native plantings and facilities management maintenance in Horace, North Dakota, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2027. This contract carries a Total Small Business set-aside designation and leverages Red Bison's SBA 8(a) program certification status. The project scope, identified through a pre-solicitation sources sought notice posted in July 2021, involves establishing native plantings on approximately 400 acres of newly constructed pools, embankments, and borrow ditches within a wetland restoration initiative. Red Bison Services is a Native American-owned and minority-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Kenner, Louisiana, with substantial experience in environmental services and federal infrastructure projects across multiple agencies.

Red Bison Services engaged two subcontractors to support project execution: HGS LLC (doing business as Res Environmental Operating Company, LLC), awarded on June 20, 2023, to provide mowing, herbicide application, well installation, initial seeding, and monitoring assistance; and Habitat Environmental Service Inc., awarded on July 29, 2024, to provide labor support for plantings. This contract aligns with the Corps of Engineers' water resource management and environmental restoration mission, positioning Red Bison to leverage its existing $9.5 million multiple award indefinite delivery contract with the Corps for forest services and environmental restoration projects through July 2028.
