Greenstone Construction, Inc., a small business headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota, was awarded a $22,828 firm fixed-price purchase order on September 26, 2019, for one Marvin ProLine seed analyzer and accessories. The contract, set aside for Total Small Business, was completed by December 26, 2019, and will be performed at the contractor's location in Fargo, North Dakota. Greenstone Construction is an SBA-certified 8(a) Program participant that also holds certifications as a minority-owned, veteran-owned, Native American-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned small business. The funding agency for this award was a civilian federal entity.
This purchase order appears to support agricultural research operations, likely in connection with Greenstone's broader relationship with federal agriculture agencies. The contractor maintains significant standing with the USDA Agricultural Research Service through a $45 million indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services in the Plains Area, as well as a $75 million multiple-award IDIQ contract with the Air Force for restoration projects. The seed analyzer acquisition represents a specialized equipment procurement component of the company's support to federal agricultural research and facility operations.
