Kirby, Betty

Kirby, Betty (doing business as Creigs Cleaners), a sole proprietorship based in Collettsville, North Carolina, provides janitorial and grounds keeping services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor under small-business set-asides and full-and-open designations. The vendor is a self-certified small disadvantaged business and woman-owned business competing across all awards as a prime (100% of recent awards carry no subcontract footprint). All work falls under NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services) and PSC Housekeeping–Custodial Janitorial.

Customer concentration is extremely narrow. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service, Region 8 (Southern Region), accounts for 7 of 8 recent awards totaling $319 thousand in combined potential value, with a single $10 thousand award from the USDA Forest Service Research Service Southern Research Station. The vendor operates under a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC 12444121D0003) valued at $225 thousand, from which six task orders carrying $94 thousand in combined potential value have been issued. The IDC spans the Forest Service's 13-state Southern Region and supports janitorial and grounds keeping services across multiple recreation facilities.

Recent delivery orders include a $19.3 thousand Total Small Business set-aside for recreation janitorial services at Linville (Grandfather Ranger District), awarded April 1, 2026 and running through March 31, 2027; a $11.4 thousand Total Small Business delivery order for janitorial services and recreation site cleaning at the same location, awarded April 1, 2025 through March 31, 2026; and a $12.1 thousand full-and-open delivery order for janitorial services at Grandfather Recreation Facilities, awarded April 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025.

Activity runs at one award per year across the measurement window. The vendor has not held parent contracts, GWACs, or broader franchise vehicles; all work flows through delivery orders against the USDA Forest Service Southern Region IDC.
