Heritage Hydro Governor Service Inc.

Heritage Hydro Governor Service Inc., a Plover, Wisconsin–based Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), operates as a prime contractor delivering specialized repair, remanufacture, and overhaul services for Woodward governor oil pump systems and associated hydraulic assemblies used in federal hydroelectric power infrastructure. The company has captured $2.3 million in combined potential value across twelve awards, all as a prime, with zero subcontract exposure.

Heritage Hydro's customer footprint is concentrated to the point of near-monopsony: the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation accounts for eleven of twelve awards and $2.2 million of the combined potential value (96%), with a single $35 thousand purchase order from the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District rounding out the customer set. The Bureau of Reclamation has awarded Heritage Hydro two single-award indefinite delivery contracts — a $1.6 million small-business-set-aside IDC running through July 2030 for remanufacture of 36 governor oil pumps and motors for Grand Coulee Dam and Powerplant, and a $200 thousand no-set-aside IDC that expired in September 2026. Against these vehicles, Heritage Hydro has received seven named delivery orders for work including oil pump rehabilitation at Parker Dam, pump and motor assembly remanufacture, and governor system maintenance across Canyon Ferry Powerplant (Montana), Albeni Falls Dam, and Grand Coulee facilities. Representative awards include a $92.8 thousand total-small-business purchase order (April 2022) from the Bureau for overhaul of six Woodward XX Herringbone Gear Type pumps at Canyon Ferry Units 1-3, a $66.9 thousand delivery order (August 2025) for two spare assemblies, and a $37.5 thousand delivery order (June 2026) for oil pump rehabilitation at Parker Dam.

Heritage Hydro specializes in overhauling, remanufacturing, and maintaining legacy hydraulic pump systems critical to water resource management and hydroelectric power generation operations. The company's NAICS footprint splits between Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance (eight awards) and Fluid Power Pump and Motor Manufacturing (four awards), with PSC concentration in pump maintenance and power pump supply. The Bureau of Reclamation has identified Heritage Hydro as the sole responsible source capable of servicing its installed base of Woodward governor oil pumps, citing the company's 30 years of specialized overhaul expertise. Activity is sparse and flat — two awards per year in 2022 and 2023, one in 2024, three in 2025, and two in 2026 — with only one award ($38 thousand combined potential value) facing ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. Only $451 thousand of the $2.3 million combined potential value has been obligated to date, reflecting the company's early-stage capture of these indefinite delivery vehicles.
