About the company
Colorado Department Of Agriculture, a U.S. state government entity headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado, operates as a prime recipient on federal cooperative agreements and contracts (99% of awards) delivering agricultural inspections, disease surveillance, pest monitoring, food safety testing, and invasive species management to federal agencies across 28 departments and sub-agencies. The department competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations; it is a child entity of the City of Lakewood.
The department's federal footprint spans animal and plant health inspection and survey work, disease response, laboratory testing, and rangeland biocontrol. Its top five customer agencies—the Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, APHIS Veterinary Services, the Agricultural Marketing Service, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region—account for 77% of awards across recent fiscal years. By potential value, APHIS Veterinary Services dominates with $4.6 million across 16 awards, followed by FDA with $1.2 million across 6 awards. The combined obligated dollars across all awards ($131.9 million) dramatically exceed the combined potential value ($6.4 million), reflecting the department's status as a recurring service provider executing cooperative agreements year after year with minimal option-year volatility and consistent renewal.
Recent representative contract and grant work includes a $285.7 thousand definitive contract with FDA for Colorado animal food inspections through March 2032; a $57.2 thousand USDA purchase order for brand inspections with Option Year 1 exercised in June 2025; a $158.7 thousand APHIS cooperative agreement for animal disease traceability and livestock surveillance through March 2027; a $192.9 thousand APHIS cooperative agreement for cattle health monitoring, brucellosis education, and foreign animal disease investigation through March 2027; a $303.1 thousand APHIS emergency cooperative agreement for highly pathogenic avian influenza response costs; a $843.5 thousand FDA cooperative agreement for microbiological testing of human and animal food products under the Laboratory Flexible Funding Model through June 2030; and a $24.9 million USDA Farm Service Agency project grant for climate-smart commodity markets and the Soil Health, Agriculture and Ranching for Tomorrow program across seven western states through March 2028. The department also holds a $724.4 thousand EPA Region 8 Performance Partnership Grant for pesticide regulatory and enforcement programs and an $813.8 thousand USDA Specialty Crop Block Grant for specialty crop research, development, and education with ten sub-recipients through September 2028.
Activity has remained stable at 19–22 awards per year over the past five years, with 20 awards reaching completion within the next 24 months. Twenty awards use the Testing Laboratories and Services NAICS (covering reference laboratory testing, microbiological analysis, and food safety work), and the department regularly performs under USDA BPAs for cooperative pest survey, animal disease, and plant health work. The department acts as prime on most federal funding but operates as a sub-recipient on a small subset of pass-through cooperative agreements—for example, sub-recipient on an Organic Crop Improvement Association Transition to Organic Partnership Program and on a National Fish and Wildlife Foundation watershed resilience project—and as a sub-contractor on Oregon State University's SERDP-funded yellow starthistle biocontrol research. Place of performance is Colorado for the vast majority of awards, with some multistate delivery (particularly the climate-smart commodities program spanning seven western states).
