About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS) Plains Area awarded a $44,945 firm fixed-price purchase order to Hill Refrigeration West, a woman-owned small business based in White, South Dakota, for the upgrade of refrigeration equipment at the Integrated Cropping Systems Research facility in Brookings, South Dakota. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, requires the complete removal of an 18-year-old refrigeration system and installation of a new commercial-grade system capable of maintaining precise environmental conditions (32–41°F within 3°F of setpoint and 40% relative humidity within 5% of setpoint) within a seed storage cooler measuring 17 feet by 15 feet 6 inches by 10 feet. The work must be completed within 60 days of contract acceptance and includes demolition and full installation services to support the facility's agricultural research operations.
Hill Refrigeration West brings substantial federal contracting experience to this engagement, having completed three significant awards for USDA-ARS Plains Area between September 2023 and August 2025, including a $670,999 contract to replace six walk-in chambers and a $15,725 emergency repair order for HVAC component replacement. The contractor meets the solicitation's qualification requirements, which mandate South Dakota-authorized HVAC mechanic licensing with a minimum of five years' experience. Hill Refrigeration West executed all prior awards as prime contractor without subcontractors, demonstrating independent capacity to manage complex facility maintenance projects. The contract was awarded on April 27, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of September 11, 2026.
