Chempro Services, Inc.

Chempro Services, Inc., a for-profit subchapter S corporation based in Glasgow, Kentucky (and registered in Gulf Breeze, Florida), delivers specialized herbicide application and invasive species control services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with 97% of its recent award footprint concentrated in prime positions across Total Small Business set-asides. The vendor competes predominantly under small business set-asides, with 32 of 37 recent awards designated as Total Small Business set-asides; the remaining work splits between full-and-open and no-set-aside deliveries under existing indefinite delivery contracts.

Chempro's capability footprint centers on targeted herbicide application, invasive vegetation management, and weed control across federal water resources, wildlife refuges, and aviation facilities. Work spans NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services), 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), and ancillary environmental remediation. Representative prime awards include a $290,450 firm fixed-price definitive contract with the Federal Aviation Administration Southwestern Region for consolidated weed control at Kansas City-area facilities (base April 2022 through March 2027); a $166,250 firm fixed-price purchase order with the Fish and Wildlife Service for exotic species treatment across 950 acres at Grand Bay National Wildlife Refuge in Mississippi (May–October 2024); a $114,111 purchase order with the Army Corps of Engineers, Engineering District Little Rock, for herbicide application services at the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System (August 2024, base plus two one-year options through July 2027); and a $107,400 purchase order with the Corps' Louisville District for herbicide services at Olmsted Locks and Dam (June 2023, through December 2027).

Customer concentration is acute. The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers dominates both award count and dollar volume—19 awards yielding $825 thousand in combined potential value (41% of the portfolio)—with subsidiary concentration at Engineering District Louisville (5 awards, $242 thousand) and Engineering District Little Rock (2 awards, $140 thousand). The Federal Aviation Administration Southwestern Region anchors the second-largest dollar position with a single $290,450 award. The Fish and Wildlife Service accounts for four awards totaling $343 thousand. These five customer entities collectively represent 87% of combined potential value. Across the top customers, the Army Corps of Engineers places the majority of task orders (small, recurring annual or seasonal herbicide treatments at lock-and-dam complexes and lakes), while the FAA contract and fish-and-wildlife awards are larger individual purchases or longer-term fixed-price orders.

Chempro holds three named single-award indefinite delivery contracts: IDC W912QR23D0048 at the Corps for William H. Harsha Lake herbicide services ($58,204 ceiling, December 2026 completion, 4 task orders valued at $44 thousand); IDC W9127S19D0015 for Barren River Lake herbicide services (3 task orders, $78 thousand); and IDC W912QR22D0014 (3 task orders, $52 thousand). These IDCs enable streamlined procurement of recurring seasonal vegetation management at Corps-managed water resources. Eight awards totaling $739 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and present recompete exposure.

Chempro holds a single sub-award: vegetation control work at the Holston Army Ammunition Plant under a prime contractor (name not disclosed in source), performing plantwide invasive species and facility grounds management for fiscal years 2025–2027. This represents 3% of Chempro's recent award footprint.

The vendor's activity trajectory shows growth from 2022 (4 awards) through 2024 (10 awards), with only one award in 2025 and four in 2026 year-to-date as of mid-April. Combined potential value across the 37 recent awards totals $2 million, with $1.6 million obligated (80% execution rate), indicating solid delivery against contracted scope. Ten distinct customer agencies have awarded work to Chempro, though the Corps of Engineers and its subordinate districts account for the majority of engagement.
