About the company

Arkansas Forestry Commission, operating as the Arkansas Department of Agriculture - Forestry Division, is a U.S. state government entity that acts as a prime recipient on federal grants and as a prime contractor on federal purchase orders for tree seedlings, forest health management, and wildfire suppression services. The Commission does not operate as a subcontractor or hold seats on federal contract vehicles; it competes exclusively as a prime and holds no SBA designations (state government entities are ineligible for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other small-business set-asides).

The Commission's federal footprint centers overwhelmingly on the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 8 (Southern Region), which accounts for 83 of 190 total awards and dominates both award count and dollar concentration. The portfolio splits 99% prime awards (188) and 1% sub-awards (2). Across the past five years, activity has remained flat to modestly declining—15 awards in 2022, dropping to 6 in 2026 year-to-date—with combined obligated dollars of $195.5 million across a potential-value ceiling of $439 thousand (the discrepancy reflects obligated grant funds that exceed stated potential values, a common pattern in multi-year federal grant administration). Two awards face recompete within the next twenty-four months.

Capability work splits between seedling production and delivery on one hand, and forest health, wildfire suppression, and conservation services on the other. Representative prime work includes a $23,072 purchase order awarded September 2025 by USDA Forest Service Region 8 for shortleaf pine seedlings delivered to the Ouachita National Forest; an $18,960 purchase order awarded September 2022 by the Department of Interior Fish and Wildlife Service for tree seedlings to Cache River National Wildlife Refuge; and a $600,000 project grant awarded August 2025 under the Forest Health Protection program (CFDA 10.680) to detect, monitor, and evaluate forest health conditions on state and private lands, with specific focus on Southern Pine Beetle hazard risk. Recent grant awards reflect substantial investment in wildfire and forest resilience: a $9.33 million Forest Legacy Program (CFDA 10.676) award in June 2026 for acquisition of forest land or conservation easements on privately owned forest threatened by conversion; a $389,909 award in July 2026 under the State & Private Forestry Cooperative Fire Assistance program (CFDA 10.698) for fire suppression equipment; and a $215,000 award in August 2026 under the State & Private Forestry Hazardous Fuel Reduction Program (CFDA 10.697) for prescribed burning on 2,668 acres of private land with equipment and supplies for firefighter safety.

Customer concentration is extreme. USDA Forest Service Region 8 accounts for 83 awards; the broader Forest Service (all regions and research functions) accounts for approximately 159 awards across the portfolio. The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, and USDA Agricultural Marketing Service round out the active set but represent a small share of recent volume. The Army Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command and Army Corps of Engineers account for six orders of magnitude less in awards and dollars than Forest Service programs. Top NAICS categories are Nursery and Tree Production (8 awards), Support Activities for Forestry (7 awards), and Forest Nurseries and Gathering of Forest Products (2 awards); top PSC codes are Seeds And Nursery Stock (10 awards), Natural Resources Forest-Range Fire Suppression and Presuppression (4 awards), and Natural Resources Forest Tree Planting (4 awards).

The Commission acts as prime recipient on multiple cooperative agreements with the Forest Service Research Service Southern Research Station for Forest Inventory and Analysis data collection, and with USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service for conservation forestry practices, prescribed burner training, and riparian corridor protection under programs including the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (CFDA 10.912) and Soil and Water Conservation program (CFDA 10.902). The Commission holds no parent contract vehicles (GWACs, BPAs, or agency-wide IDIQs) and does not appear in subcontractor relationships on federal prime awards. Work is performed in Arkansas.
