Auble Jolicoeur & Gentry Inc.

Auble Jolicoeur & Gentry Inc., operating as Valbridge Property Advisors, provides federal real estate appraisal services as a prime contractor exclusively under small business set-asides or unrestricted competitive vehicles. The firm is a woman-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Spokane Valley, Washington, competing 100% as a prime across NAICS 541922 (Offices of Real Estate Appraisers) and PSC Support-Professional Real Property Appraisals.

Valbridge's federal footprint centers on land appraisal for federal property acquisitions, easements, and land management across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Recent representative work includes a $19,500 total small business set-aside purchase order from the Department of Interior's Office of Policy Management and Budget (August 2026) for appraisal of two tracts totaling approximately 20.26 acres in Beaver, Washington; a $12,500 total small business set-aside appraisal for the Turnbull Tract (272) Ghering property in Spokane County (April 2026, funded by Interior) for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service land conservation acquisition under the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956; and a $12,000 total small business set-aside appraisal of twelve cabin sites at Conconully Lake and Conconully Reservoir in Okanogan County, Washington (April 2025, Interior). Valbridge also performs under BPA calls with the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region for land appraisals, market rent studies, and expert witness services supporting land acquisitions and public access initiatives.

Customer concentration skews toward smaller agencies and departments. The Department of the Interior's Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians leads by award count (34 awards, $480 thousand combined potential value), while the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers dominates by potential value ($2 million across two awards). The top five customer entities account for 72% of awards by count but only 93% of combined potential value — signaling high volume from Interior and small dollar awards anchored against large single valuations from the Corps of Engineers. Valbridge holds two active BPAs: a $750 thousand single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (awarded July 2023, expiring June 2027) for land appraisal services in Oregon and Washington, and a $1 million multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers (awarded February 2022, expiring February 2027) for real estate appraisal services across 14 states. Task orders under these vehicles are modest — the highest visible call valued $18,400 — but represent recurring demand for professional appraisal services.

Activity has been episodic. The vendor recorded one award in 2022, three in 2023, four in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026 year-to-date, with combined potential value across all 100 awards standing at $4.2 million and obligated dollars at $1 million (25% execution). Only two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, combined potential value $32 thousand, representing minimal recompete exposure. Valbridge operates exclusively as a prime — no subcontract work is present in the source. The firm's capability scope remains narrow: 94 of 100 awards fall under Offices of Real Estate Appraisers NAICS, with 95 awards coded to PSC Support-Professional Real Property Appraisals. This specialization signals deep expertise in federal land valuation compliance and Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice alignment but limits portfolio diversification.
