Harris Environmental Group Inc.

Harris Environmental Group Inc., a women-owned small business and HUBZone-certified environmental consulting and cultural resource management firm based in Tucson, Arizona, operates primarily as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) delivering archaeological surveys, heritage assessments, habitat restoration, environmental compliance services, and cultural resource inventories to federal land management agencies across the western United States.

Harris Environmental competes predominantly under small business set-asides — total small business, women-owned small business (WOSB), and HUBZone designations recur across its prime footprint, though a material share of awards carry no set-aside designation. The firm is organized as a Subchapter S corporation and holds multiple SBA certifications including self-certification as a small disadvantaged business and economically disadvantaged women-owned small business (EDWOSB).

Customer concentration clusters around natural resource management agencies. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 3 (Southwestern Region) leads by award count with 27 awards valued at $30.6 million combined potential value, followed by the Marine Corps (19 awards, $3.1 million) and the Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management Arizona Region (18 awards, $1.6 million). By dollar value, however, the ranking shifts: the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle anchors the portfolio with 13 awards carrying $57.8 million combined potential value, followed by USDA Forest Service Region 3 and the Department of Interior Bureau of Reclamation (9 awards, $30.2 million). These five customer agencies account for 63% of combined potential value across the portfolio. Forty distinct federal agencies have issued awards, indicating broad customer diversity across Interior, Agriculture, Army, Navy, and Marine Corps.

Harris Environmental holds several significant indefinite delivery vehicles. A $45 million WOSB IDIQ with the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle runs through March 2029 and supports environmental consulting services across Corps projects in the Pacific Northwest. A $50 million Blanket Purchase Agreement under the Land Management Integrated Resources (LMIR) program, awarded in October 2025 by USDA Forest Service under total small business set-aside, extends through March 2033 and covers project management, environmental consulting, natural resources restoration, and engineering support across federal land management agencies nationwide. A $9.9 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Sacramento through June 2028 funds habitat restoration and monitoring services in northern California. A $250 thousand BPA with the Department of Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 2 through August 2028 covers archaeological services. Harris Environmental also holds 90 task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule.

Representative recent work includes a $1.35 million definitive contract with USDA Forest Service Region 3 for archaeological surveys supporting fuels reduction projects across approximately 15,141 acres in the Payson area (Tonto National Forest); a $704.7 thousand delivery order with Department of Interior Region 3 for environmental and cultural resource management services in Flagstaff, Arizona; and multiple $200–$600 thousand delivery orders with Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Sacramento for habitat restoration, biomonitoring, and wetland hydrological monitoring at Fort Ord, supporting base realignment and closure and environmental remediation efforts.

Activity has averaged roughly 10 awards per year over the past five years (12 in 2022, 13 in 2023, 6 in 2024, 10 in 2025, 5 as of May 2026), with modest year-to-year volatility. Eight awards totaling $3.7 million combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor operates nearly exclusively as a prime (212 of 214 awards), with only two sub-awards on record — a heritage resource consulting engagement under WSM Pacific Siop (a joint venture) on a Navy drydock project and a vapor intrusion mitigation sub under Nakupuna Solutions.

Service Contract Inventory captures minimal activity: four SCI-reportable records (three as prime, one as sub) across FY2023–FY2024, with reported FTE delivery below 1.1 across those fiscal years. SCI data carry zero invoiced dollars, indicating either that Harris Environmental's reportable service contracts fall below the $150,000 threshold or that invoicing had not been completed at the time of SCI reporting. This SCI footprint is a partial and likely understated view of the firm's actual federal services revenue, which the broader award portfolio suggests exceeds $30 million in recent combined potential value.

Harris Environmental's capability portfolio is narrowly specialized: the vendor concentrates on cultural resource management (archaeological surveys, heritage assessments, NAGPRA compliance, site recordation), environmental assessments and compliance documentation, habitat restoration and monitoring, and related natural resource consulting. This specialization drives high customer concentration among land stewards and environmental compliance agencies (Forest Service, BLM, Fish and Wildlife, Army Corps of Engineers) and creates limited cross-functional exposure to IT, defense systems, or non-environmental federal missions. The geographic footprint spans the western United States, with notable concentration in the Southwest (Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado) and the Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Washington, California).
