About the company
Dead River Company, LLC, operating as Augusta Cash Fuel through its Administrative Office Division, supplies heating oil, diesel, propane, and related fuel products to federal agencies across the northeastern United States, competing as a prime contractor on full-and-open and small-business set-aside purchase orders and blanket purchase agreements. The firm is a for-profit limited liability partnership headquartered in Portland, Maine, registered in SAM since 2002, and competes under the small-business set-aside designation on a portion of its awards; no SBA 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or women-owned designations are present in the source.
Dead River's customer concentration is split between two anchor agencies by different metrics. The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 5 dominates potential value (13 awards, $917 thousand combined potential value), while the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 1 dominates award count (46 awards, $653 thousand combined potential value). These two customers account for 57% of all recent awards and 85% of combined potential value across the vendor's footprint. The remaining concentration sits with the Defense Finance and Accounting Service ($315 thousand across four awards, including a $182 thousand propane delivery contract to DFAS Limestone, Maine ending November 2025), the Department of Homeland Security Chief Procurement Officer and Customs and Border Protection combined ($149 thousand), and the Department of the Army Vermont National Guard and Defense Logistics Agency Energy ($49 thousand). Representative recent work includes a $250 thousand five-year blanket purchase agreement with Fish and Wildlife Service Region 5 for bulk fuel delivery to Craig Brook National Fish Hatchery (awarded September 2024, extending through August 2029), a companion $250 thousand five-year BPA for bulk fuel to Green Lake National Fish Hatchery (also September 2024), a $26.9 thousand purchase order from Fish and Wildlife for vaporizer repair at Craig Brook (August 2025), and a $11.04 thousand BPA call for heating oil delivery to Green Lake (May 2026). Dead River's award footprint spans 141 total prime awards across twelve distinct agencies since 1994, with a combined potential value of $2.4 million and $2.2 million obligated (91% of potential). Recent activity is minimal—one award each in 2021, 2022, 2024, 2025, and 2026—reflecting a mature, stable relationship with regional government fuel customers rather than growth trajectory. The vendor's NAICS concentration reflects commodity fuel supply: 64 awards under Heating Oil Dealers, 27 under Fossil Fuel Electric Power Generation, and 11 under Petroleum and Petroleum Products Merchant Wholesalers, with PSC concentration anchored by Fuel Oils (97 awards) and Utilities categories.
