Hennessey James

Hennessey James, doing business as JT Hennessey LLC, a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship based in Naugatuck, Connecticut, operates as a prime contractor providing snow removal, landscaping, and facility maintenance services to the Army Corps of Engineers under total small business set-asides. The vendor competes exclusively under small business set-asides and holds a documented federal contracting history since 2004.

The vendor's federal footprint is heavily concentrated with a single customer agency. The Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District New England accounts for 24 of 26 total awards and $824 thousand of the $831 thousand combined potential value — 99% of the portfolio by both count and dollars. The remaining two awards, each with nominal value, went to the Department of the Army and the Army Corps of Engineers more broadly, representing negligible exposure outside the New England District.

Hennessey James delivers landscaping and snow and ice management services grounded in recurring seasonal contracts at Connecticut water resource project facilities. Representative work includes a $243,820 firm fixed-price purchase order awarded January 15, 2026, for snow removal and sanding at three sites (Black Rock Lake, Northfield Brook Lake, and Thomaston Dam in Thomaston) through April 30, 2028; a $63,830 order from December 10, 2025, for snow removal and winter ground maintenance at Hop Brook Lake and the Naugatuck River Basin Office in Middlebury through June 30, 2027; and a $23,750 floating debris boom replacement at Thomaston Dam completed in June 2025. The vendor also performs specialized infrastructure maintenance such as access gate replacement and debris removal. Work is classified under NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services) and PSC codes for housekeeping, snow removal, and construction of real property restoration, with fourteen awards in landscaping services, seven in snow removal, and four in building and property construction.

The vendor has no subcontract presence and does not sit on government-wide vehicles, IDIQs, or BPAs — all 26 awards are direct purchase orders from the New England District. Of the combined $831 thousand potential value, $607 thousand (73%) has been obligated. Two awards totaling $308 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure. Activity is episodic rather than sustained — the source shows one or two awards per year over the past five years, with two in 2025 and one in 2026.
