About the company
Circular Planet Institute LLC, a minority-owned, Black American-owned limited liability company based in Aubrey, Texas, supplies specialized agricultural research materials—soil sample bags, food-grade agar powder, and Kanza corn cob—to the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a prime contractor under indefinite delivery contracts and delivery orders. The firm is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business and competes in full-and-open set-asides; none of its recent awards carry explicit SBA set-aside designations.
Circular Planet's customer footprint is concentrated almost entirely within USDA. Seven of eight awards go to the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) program, accounting for $3.3 million in combined potential value across soil sample bags, agar powder, and Kanza corn cob deliveries. One award, a $50 million Blanket Purchase Agreement titled Land Management Integrated Resources (LMIR), was issued by the USDA Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions division. The LMIR BPA is a multiple-award vehicle with a ten-year period of performance through March 6, 2033, covering natural resources restoration, engineering, project management, and plant material production under NAICS 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services) and PSC R408 (Natural Resources). Circular Planet has issued at least two delivery orders under LMIR for corn cob and soil collection bags.
On the PPQ side, Circular Planet holds three single-award indefinite delivery contracts: a $1.821 billion contract for Kanza corn cob (estimated ten to twelve deliveries per year of 800 forty-pound bags, roughly $8,640 per delivery, completion March 17, 2030), a $1 million contract for food-grade agar powder to support fruit fly artificial diet development at the Mexican Fruit Fly Rearing Facility in Edinburg, Texas (completion September 28, 2030), and a $249 thousand contract for soil collection bags (completion September 23, 2029). Recent delivery orders include a $13.8 thousand order for 20,000 soil sample bag units issued April 17, 2026, a $57.75 thousand order for sixty 25-kilogram bags of food-grade agar issued September 30, 2025, and a $59.34 thousand order for soil collection bags issued September 24, 2024.
Activity has accelerated from two awards in 2024 to five in 2025, with one award in 2026 as of the source date. Combined potential value stands at $53.3 million, though obligations to date total only $185 thousand—a reflection of the heavy weighting toward high-ceiling IDCs with phased delivery schedules rather than immediate spend. No subcontract footprint is present in the source data; Circular Planet operates exclusively as a prime contractor. The firm's capability portfolio is narrowly specialized in niche agricultural and quarantine-support materials rather than broad services, anchored to USDA's operational requirements for plant protection, pest management research, and natural resources work.
