Purchase Order 75H71023P00443

This firm-fixed-price purchase order was awarded by the Indian Health Service (IHS), a civilian agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, to Gallup Lumber & Supply Co Inc., a Native American-owned small business. The $19,951.80 contract is for the delivery of general services and supplies, including lumber, hardware, and other construction materials, to support operations and maintenance at IHS healthcare facilities and staff housing in the Pinon, Arizona area. Gallup Lumber & Supply Co Inc. has a long history of providing these types of goods and services to IHS under various contract vehicles, including multiple-year blanket purchase agreements valued up to $270,000. While this specific award did not utilize a small business set-aside, Gallup Lumber's status as a Native American-owned firm may have provided preference under the Buy Indian Act program. The consistent delivery of building materials and maintenance items by this experienced prime contractor helps the IHS sustain crucial infrastructure and housing for Native American populations in the region.
