Clearwater View, Inc.

Clearwater View, Inc., doing business as Western Appraisals, is a small business appraisal firm based in Lewiston, Idaho, that operates as a prime contractor providing real property valuation services to the Department of the Interior under total small business set-asides. The vendor competes exclusively under set-aside authority across its federal footprint; all 79 awards in the source are total small business set-asides.

Western Appraisals' work centers on land and property appraisals for federal land agencies and trust administration. Primary NAICS classification is 541922 (Offices of Real Estate Appraisers), with 57 awards in that category; PSC coding runs to "Support—Professional: Real Property Appraisals" for 78 of 79 awards. Recent representative work includes a $13,500 purchase order from the Department of the Interior's Office of Policy Management and Budget to appraise a vacant parcel on the Nez Perce Reservation in Idaho held in Native Allotment trust status (awarded June 4, 2026, completion March 16, 2027), a $12,000 appraisal contract for two tracts totaling 122.8 acres at Little Pend Oreille National Wildlife Refuge in Stevens County, Washington (awarded November 22, 2023, completion February 20, 2024), and a $24,500 engagement to compile comparable lease data for the Fort Hall Mark area (awarded September 13, 2022, completion March 12, 2023).

Customer concentration is heavy within Department of the Interior components. The top five Interior sub-offices account for 56% of awards by count: the Bureau of Land Management (22 awards, $26 thousand combined potential value), the Office of Policy Management and Budget (7 awards, $81 thousand), the Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians (6 awards, $87 thousand), Fish and Wildlife Service (6 awards), and the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission (3 awards). The Special Trustee for American Indians and Policy Management and Budget components drive the majority of potential value despite lower award counts. Western Appraisals places task orders under five interior indefinite delivery contracts, with HAC009C00 accounting for nine task orders. Activity is sparse and intermittent — one award each in 2022, 2023, and 2026 — with only one award ($14 thousand) reaching completion in the next twenty-four months. Combined potential value across all seventy-nine awards totals $534 thousand, though $810 thousand has been obligated (152% of ceiling), indicating government exercised options or overfunded individual orders.
