Jake's Landscaping And Excavating, Inc.

Jake's Landscaping And Excavating, Inc., doing business as Jake's Excavating & Landscaping, is a small business Subchapter S corporation based in Mio, Michigan, that provides landscaping, excavation, trail maintenance, road construction, facilities maintenance, and land management services to the USDA Forest Service as a prime contractor operating exclusively in full-and-open and total small business set-aside competitions.

The vendor's customer base is hyperconcentrated within the USDA Forest Service. The Forest Service accounts for 100% of recent awards across five regional and national offices: Region 9 (Eastern Region) dominates at 77 awards valued at $13.8 million combined potential value (88% of the portfolio), followed by Region 8 (Southern Region) with 5 awards ($643 thousand), and Fire and Aviation Management's National Interagency Fire Center with 2 awards ($500 thousand). The top three customers represent 97% of combined potential value. This concentration reflects Jake's Landscaping's niche positioning as a recurring service provider for Forest Service land management, infrastructure, and fire suppression support across the Northeast Zone and select southern regions.

Jake's Landscaping holds position on five named Indefinite Delivery Contracts spanning trails, roads, facilities, and wildland fire suppression work. The highest-traffic vehicles are an IDC for trail construction (AG569RC140012, 22 task orders totaling $406 thousand) and an IDC for road construction and maintenance (AG54A4C080003, 18 task orders totaling $528 thousand), both under Region 9. The vendor also holds two $250,000 BPAs awarded in 2022 for Region 9 trails and roads work (contract ceiling extending to March 2032) and a $250,000 multiple-award IDC for heavy equipment supporting wildland fire suppression across Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9, awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center in June 2023 and again in February 2026 (through June 2028).

Representative delivery order and task order work spans trail grading and maintenance ($11,000 and $10,824 BPA calls under Region 9 in August 2024), road and dam access improvements ($52,393 Region 9 roads BPA call in July 2023), vault toilet waste pumping ($135,846 Region 9 purchase order extended through June 2028), hot-mix asphalt paving on the Whirlpool Entrance Road ($277,081 Region 9 award in November 2022), and off-road vehicle and snowmobile trail improvements ($281,658 Region 9 delivery order in March 2022). Recent activity includes a $405,504 Region 8 delivery order in May 2025 and a $62,625 Region 8 total small business set-aside delivery order in April 2026. The vendor's work spans Support Activities for Forestry (77 awards), Highway Street and Bridge Construction (18 awards), and Natural Resources Conservation and Fire Suppression (13 awards by PSC code).

Activity has declined from a peak of 8 awards per year in 2022 and 2023 to 4 awards in 2024, 1 award in 2025, and 2 awards in 2026 year-to-date. The vendor faces minimal recompete exposure; only one award ($136 thousand) completes within the next twenty-four months. Jake's Landscaping operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint, and holds no position on government-wide vehicles outside the Forest Service IDCs and BPAs.
