Huntzinger Brett

Huntzinger Brett, a sole proprietorship based in Trout Creek, Michigan, provides timber marking, timber cruising, and forest management support services to the USDA Forest Service as a 100% prime contractor, competing exclusively on full-and-open contracts with no set-aside designations across its current footprint.

The vendor is a small business sole proprietorship with a fifteen-year federal contracting history (first award May 2007) concentrated entirely within the USDA Forest Service's Eastern Region (Region 9). Huntzinger Brett's capability portfolio centers on field-level forestry operations: timber designation for harvest, timber volume estimation and cruising, common stand examinations, and stewardship marking across multiple national forests including Ottawa, Chequamegon-Nicolet, and Huron-Manistee. Representative recent work includes a $165,125 BPA call issued June 10, 2026, for common stand examinations at Ironwood, Michigan (completion October 31, 2028), a $59,926 BPA call issued July 9, 2026, for rock bass marking and cruising in Ontonagon, Michigan (completion November 9, 2026), and a $42,647 Trumpet Timber Sale marking contract issued September 19, 2025 (completion November 30, 2026). All work is firm fixed-price with no set-aside applied.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of Agriculture Forest Service R9-Eastern Region anchors 95% of recent awards (124 of 132 total awards) carrying $5.1 million in combined potential value, with a single outlier $50 million Land Management Integrated Resources BPA awarded May 4, 2026, by the Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions carrying a completion date of March 6, 2033. The vendor operates primarily under two blanket purchase agreements: the $2 million Base Award Timber Mark & Cruise BPA Region 9 established October 1, 2023 (completion November 15, 2028), which has generated 17 task orders worth approximately $525,000 in combined potential value, and the newly awarded $50 million LMIR BPA. Top NAICS categories are Support Activities for Forestry (121 awards) and Timber Tract Operations (11 awards); the vendor's work falls primarily under PSC Natural Resources/Conservation codes, led by Site Preparation (80 awards) and Other (36 awards).

Award velocity has remained relatively flat at 4–7 awards per year across 2022–2026. Six awards carrying combined potential value of $197,000 reach ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete exposure relative to the vendor's potential value. Huntzinger Brett holds no subcontractor relationships and operates entirely as a direct-prime service provider to the Forest Service, with no presence on government-wide acquisition vehicles or other federal agencies.
