MEC Services LLC, a tribally-owned small disadvantaged business and SBA 8(a) Program participant based in New Town, North Dakota, was awarded a $21,560 firm fixed-price purchase order on August 19, 2025, to supply diesel fuel to the Cheyenne River Agency in Eagle Butte, South Dakota. The contract, which originated from a Bureau of Indian Affairs solicitation (140A0125Q0017) designated as a 100% Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) set-aside, requires delivery of 7,000 gallons of #2 diesel fuel clear within seven days of contract award. The ultimate completion date is October 17, 2025, and the fuel will support the BIA's transportation operations at the Cheyenne River Agency in the Great Plains Region.
This award reflects the Department of the Interior's commitment to directing procurement opportunities to Native American-owned businesses through the ISBEE program. MEC Services LLC has established itself as a key federal contractor serving the Bureau of Indian Affairs and other agencies across multiple regions, with particular strength in supplying critical materials to Native American communities and federal facilities. The company's existing Indefinite Delivery Vehicles with the BIA, including a $92,200 propane supply contract for the Great Plains Region, demonstrate its operational capability and track record in delivering fuel and related commodities to BIA facilities.
