Environmental Seeds West LLC

Environmental Seeds West LLC, a small disadvantaged business located in Lehi, Utah, supplies native plant seeds and seed increase services to Department of the Interior agencies as a prime contractor in full-and-open competition, with no reliance on set-aside categories. The firm operates as a partnership or limited liability partnership and competes across multiple consolidated seed buy solicitations and blanket purchase agreements without designated set-asides, demonstrating competitive strength in open federal procurement.

Environmental Seeds West's customer base concentrates entirely within the Department of the Interior. The Bureau of Land Management accounts for 93% of recent awards by count and 100% of combined potential value, split between BLM's Idaho Region (15 awards, $24 million combined potential value) and BLM's National Office (14 awards, $51.3 million combined potential value). The National Park Service (5 awards, $6.3 million combined potential value) and Fish and Wildlife Service regions (5 awards, $497 thousand combined potential value) round out the active set. Representative prime work includes a $1.75 million firm fixed-price definitive contract from BLM's Idaho Region for the Fall FY26-2 Consolidated Seed Buy awarded August 7, 2026 with delivery through December 2026; a $2.31 million BLM Idaho Region contract for the FY25-2 Fall Consolidated Seed Buy (August 2025); and a $1.46 million BLM Idaho Region contract for the FY26-1 Spring Consolidated Seed Buy (March 2026). Environmental Seeds West also holds three blanket purchase agreements: a $250 thousand multiple-award BPA with Fish and Wildlife Service Region 6 (established March 2023, running through March 2028), a $3 million single-award BPA with National Park Service for Intermountain West seed increase services (August 2022 through August 2027), and a $3 million single-award NPS BPA for Southwest Region seed increase services (August 2022 through August 2027).

Activity has fluctuated over the past five years, with six awards in 2022, declining to three in 2024, then rising to six in 2025 and two in 2026 as of August. Across the portfolio, 95% of awards are prime contracts or IDVs; the firm holds two federal grant sub-awards from the Department of Agriculture Nevada under the Nevada Native Seed Partnership and the Nevada Native Seed Program (both recipients of Foundation Seed and partnership funding). Awards within the next twenty-four months total three (combined potential value $2.1 million), representing a modest recompete window. Environmental Seeds West's work is categorized across All Other Miscellaneous Crop Farming (18 awards), Forest Nurseries and Gathering of Forest Products (12 awards), and Soil Preparation, Planting, and Cultivating (6 awards), with PSC coding dominated by Seeds and Nursery Stock (21 awards) and Natural Resources/Conservation—Seed Collection/Production (19 awards).
