Hammett John D JR

Hammett John D JR, a sole proprietor small business based in Ridge Spring, South Carolina, provides feral hog control and invasive species management services to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The vendor operates under NAICS 721990 (Hunting and Trapping) and has maintained SAM.gov registration since 2004, competing entirely through blanket purchase agreements and indefinite delivery contracts issued by the USDA Forest Service Southern Region.

The vendor's customer concentration is absolute: all 29 named awards (91% of combined potential value) flow from the Department of Agriculture Forest Service R8-Southern Region, which serves 13 states across the Southeast. This single-customer footprint reflects Hammett's specialization — feral hog population control, removal, and habitat damage mitigation on national forest lands. Recent representative work includes a $12,000 call order awarded March 23, 2026, for wild pig control in New Ellenton, South Carolina (ultimate completion September 30, 2026), a $12,450 call order from March 20, 2025, for the same services at the Durham Hammett location, and a $20,000 call order from January 1, 2023, for feral hog control and abatement. Individual call orders historically range from $990 to approximately $24,775.

Hammett sits on five parent vehicles under the Forest Service Southern Region. The vendor places the greatest volume under Indefinite Delivery Contract AG4660C080009 (13 task orders, $84 thousand combined potential value) and AG4568C150105 (8 task orders, $105 thousand combined potential value). A single-award blanket purchase agreement established September 23, 2020, with a $250,000 ceiling (BPA 12467020A0036) carries 7 task orders and $90 thousand in combined potential value and has been the primary vehicle for recent work. The vendor has no subcontract footprint and operates as a 100% prime contractor. Activity has been sparse in recent years — one award in each of 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with only a single award (combined potential value $12 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Combined potential value across all 45 awards since 2004 stands at $1.5 million, with $397 thousand obligated to date (26% utilization).
