About this award
The U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) awarded a delivery order valued at $1.3 million to Despain's Livestock LLC for continued wild burro off-range corral operations. The contract, which became effective on March 12, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2025, represents the fourth delivery order under an indefinite delivery vehicle contract established with the prime contractor. This delivery order was issued without a set-aside designation and carries firm fixed pricing. Despain's Livestock LLC, a sole proprietorship owned by Kerry M. Despain and based in Axtell, Utah, will provide off-range pasture and corral services for wild burros removed from public lands, including facility operations, animal care, equipment, personnel, materials, and supplies necessary to support the BLM's Wild Horse and Burro Program.
Despain's Livestock LLC has been a critical infrastructure provider for the BLM's wildlife management mission since at least 2011, holding multiple indefinite delivery contracts valued at approximately $32.5 million for comprehensive wild horse and burro population management services. The company's specialized expertise in off-range corral operations and pasture management demonstrates its established capability in this niche federal contracting space. This delivery order continues the contractor's essential role in humanely managing wild equine populations across western rangelands, with the work performed at the company's Axtell, Utah facility that has supported the BLM's mission of balancing wild horse and burro populations with rangeland health objectives.
