IST Visilty JV LLC

IST Visilty JV LLC is a minority-owned, SBA Certified 8(a) joint venture headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, that specializes in vegetation management, environmental services, and minor construction work for federal agencies. Registered in SAM.gov since July 2020, the company holds multiple socioeconomic certifications, including designation as a black American-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business. IST Visilty JV LLC delivers specialized services across the southeastern United States, with a demonstrated track record of supporting federal agencies' natural area preservation, grounds maintenance, and infrastructure support requirements.

IST Visilty JV LLC has executed a diverse portfolio of federal contract awards reflecting its core competencies in vegetation management and environmental services. The company has provided herbicide treatment services across multiple locations within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Mississippi Valley Division, Vicksburg District, and New Orleans District areas of responsibility, with individual task orders valued between $24,417 and $420,800. Tree-related services constitute a significant portion of the company's work, including tree planting of hardwood bareroot seedlings and pine containerized seedlings, hazardous tree and limb removal, tree pruning, and kudzu treatment. The National Park Service Southeast Region has been a substantial contracting partner, awarding IST Visilty JV LLC multiple definitive contracts for storm damage cleanup, cyclic vegetation removal and vista maintenance at Blackland Prairie in Tupelo, Mississippi, and hazardous tree removal services at various national park sites, with cumulative values exceeding $1.4 million for work performed between 2022 and 2023. A sole-source 8(a) contract for $291,995 was awarded by the National Park Service Southeast Region for tree pruning and removal services at a national cemetery in Vicksburg, Mississippi. Additionally, the company was awarded a $113,000 firm fixed-price contract from the National Park Service for storm damage cleanup services in Dover, Tennessee, and a $6,500 purchase order for hazardous tree removal on the National Trails System. No set-aside designations have been applied to the majority of these delivery orders and definitive contracts, as many were issued under existing 8(a) IDIQ vehicles or awarded through agency-specific socioeconomic programs.

IST Visilty JV LLC currently holds two Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contracts that serve as vehicles for ongoing federal procurements. The $4.5 million single-award 8(a) IDIQ contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Vicksburg District, is valid through August 2026 and provides tree planting and herbicide treatment services. This contract represents a foundational vehicle from which the Corps of Engineers has issued multiple task orders for vegetation management support, including specialized herbicide application and tree planting operations across the Corps' operational areas in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. The second major IDIQ is a $20 million multiple-award contract with NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center for minor construction services, with a five-year ordering period running from March 2024 through March 2029 and designated as a total small business set-aside. This contract encompasses a comprehensive range of construction services including maintenance, repair, painting, alterations, architectural and mechanical systems work, plumbing, heating and air conditioning, civil engineering, earthwork, fencing, structural work, steel fabrication and welding, roofing, building renovations, demolition, and USGBC LEED-certified projects. Under the NASA contract, the company has received an initial task order for the $100 minimum guarantee. Historically, similar NASA contracts issue 60 to 80 task orders annually with combined values between $8 million and $12 million, positioning IST Visilty JV LLC to capture substantial additional work volume through this vehicle over its five-year period of performance.
