About Kpem LLC
Kpem LLC, an SBA-certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business and Women-Owned Small Business based in La Porte, Indiana, delivers invasive species control, vegetation management, and ecological restoration services to federal land-management agencies as a prime contractor across all small-business set-aside designations. The company operates as a limited liability partnership, competing exclusively under total small business set-asides on the majority of its transactional work and holding four significant indefinite delivery vehicles totaling approximately $116.9 million in combined potential value.
Kpem's capability portfolio centers on herbicide application, mechanical vegetation removal, invasive plant treatment, hazard tree felling, habitat restoration, and boundary clearing for national forests, wildlife refuges, and Army installations. Representative work includes a $601,956 firm-fixed-price definitive contract from the Army Corps of Engineers (awarded June 2024, ultimate completion April 2029) for herbicide spraying at nine recreation areas and twelve lock-and-dam sites on the Mississippi River, a $707,142 option-year exercise (awarded September 2022, extended through August 2027) for herbicide application at the Des Plaines River Barrier Fence facility in Illinois, and a $150,000 purchase order (awarded February 2024) from the Fish and Wildlife Service for invasive plant control at J.N. Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge in Florida. Smaller transactional awards in the $14,000–$75,000 range supporting boundary maintenance, woody species management, and NNIS treatment at individual Corps lake projects and Forest Service sites comprise the bulk of annual task-order volume.
Customer concentration reflects deep agency relationships in land stewardship. The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers leads by award count (12 awards, $7.4 million combined potential value), followed by the Army Installation Management Command Southwest Region (8 awards, $694 thousand), USDA Forest Service Region 9 (6 awards, $144 thousand), and NPS Midwest Region (4 awards, $233 thousand). However, the top-customer-by-dollar ranking is anchored by Kpem's two largest IDVs: a $50 million multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with USDA Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions (awarded June 2026, extending through March 2033) for Land Management Integrated Resources services and a $49.5 million multiple-award BPA with the Fish and Wildlife Service Region 3 (awarded March 2024, extending through March 2029) for national hazardous fuels reduction. A $7.5 million single-award BPA with USDA Forest Service Region 8 for vegetation management on National Forests in Texas (awarded September 2025, extending through August 2030) and a $5 million multiple-award BPA with the Army Corps of Engineers Kansas City District for Southwest Missouri landscape management (awarded September 2024, extending through September 2029) complete the primary vehicle portfolio. These four IDVs constitute the core of Kpem's federal backlog and represent the company's sustained positioning as a preferred vendor for federal ecological services.
Award activity increased through 2024 (seven awards in 2022 to nine in 2024) but contracted sharply to four awards in 2025 and three in the first half of 2026; this trajectory reflects the company's transition from transactional purchase orders to larger IDV vehicles, which are counted singly despite multi-year ceilings and multiple embedded task orders. The recompete window over the next twenty-four months shows only three awards (combined potential value $814 thousand) reaching ultimate completion—minimal recompete exposure at the prime level. Kpem operates with 100% prime footprint and carries no subcontract relationships in the sourced award history.
