Jackson Excavation, Inc.

Jackson Excavation, Inc., a HUBZone-certified small business based in Bicknell, Utah, delivers heavy construction, excavation, and road-maintenance services to federal land management agencies as a prime contractor on direct awards and IDIQs, with no subcontractor footprint. The company competes exclusively under HUBZone and Total Small Business set-asides on fixed-price contracts and delivery orders, performing all work through its own labor force.

Jackson Excavation's customer base is concentrated in the western Forest Service footprint. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 4 (Intermountain Region) accounts for 149 awards and $30.9 million in combined potential value — 85% of the recent award count. Two larger IDIQs dominate the potential-value ranking: a $50 million multiple-award Region 1–Region 4 Forest Engineering and Road Maintenance (FERM) Blanket Purchase Agreement (awarded October 2, 2023, running through August 31, 2033) and a $50 million Region 4 Road and Bridge Construction MATOC (awarded May 15, 2025, running through April 30, 2030), both set-aside for small business. The Bureau of Land Management's Utah Region and the National Park Service's Intermountain Region are secondary customers. Across the portfolio, work centers on native surface and paved road maintenance, rotomilling, bridge and culvert reconstruction, aggregate crushing, and dam repair on national forest lands across Utah, Nevada, Idaho, and portions of Wyoming. Recent representative awards include a $3.72 million definitive contract for Pine Valley Dam reconstruction on Dixie National Forest (awarded September 30, 2025, under Great American Outdoors Act), a $2.197 million Intermountain Region delivery order for Skyline Drive road reconditioning and aggregate crushing (awarded August 3, 2026), a $2.519 million definitive contract with BLM for Calf Creek Bridge replacement near Escalante, Utah (awarded February 9, 2026), and a $1.183 million Forest Service definitive contract for Lake Fork Road repair (awarded September 5, 2024).

The award portfolio spans 198 prime awards across 25 years of data, with recent annual volume holding steady at three to four awards per year in 2024–2026 after peaking at eight awards in 2023. Five awards with combined potential value of $10.1 million complete within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure. Primary NAICS codes are 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) and 238910 (Support Activities for Forestry); primary PSCs align with road maintenance, repair, and construction. Jackson Excavation holds no grant recipient footprint except a single USDA Rural Business Cooperative Services REAP Renewable Energy System grant (awarded May 2, 2024, completing May 2, 2026). Service Contract Inventory data captures minimal exposure — $1.2 million in SCI-reportable invoiced revenue across FY2023–FY2025, concentrated in FY2023 at 1.8 FTEs and declining to 0.3 FTEs in FY2024, with government-paid hourly rates ranging from approximately $246/hr at the 10th percentile to $873/hr at the 90th percentile. SCI coverage is sparse because Jackson Excavation's portfolio is dominated by goods and fixed-price construction contracts, not service-hour arrangements above the reporting threshold.
