Mac AK, LLC

Mac AK, LLC, doing business as Macswain Associates, is a sole proprietorship based in Anchorage, Alaska that provides real estate appraisal services to the Department of the Interior under Total Small Business set-asides, operating exclusively as a prime contractor on small-dollar purchase orders for federal land valuation across Alaska's national parks, wildlife refuges, and Native Allotment properties.

The firm competes solely under the Total Small Business set-aside category and holds a valid Alaska Certified General Appraiser license, with all ten recent awards designated as small-business-set-aside purchase orders under NAICS 531320 (Offices of Real Estate Appraisers) and PSC R411 (Real Property Appraisals). Macswain Associates specializes in appraising complex land parcels in remote Alaskan geographies, including undeveloped tundra, conservation easements, and Native Allotment properties, with work performed in Anchorage and delivered as narrative reports compliant with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Representative awards include a $25,000 appraisal for three Native Allotment parcels (Office of Policy Management and Budget, May 2025), a $39,000 appraisal at Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge (OPMB, August 2024), a $19,500 market-value appraisal of a 116-acre Native Allotment property in Cantwell (OPMB, May 2026), and an $18,000 appraisal for the Kvichak South Naknek area (OPMB, August 2025).

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of the Interior accounts for 100% of awards, with nine awards ($161 thousand combined potential value) flowing through the Office of Policy Management and Budget and one award ($11 thousand) through Fish and Wildlife Service Region 7. All work originates from Interior's appraisal solicitations targeting small business set-asides or Indian-owned economic enterprises. Activity has grown from one award in 2024 to five in 2025 and four in 2026 year-to-date, with combined potential value of $172 thousand across all ten awards and combined dollars obligated at $153 thousand (89% realization). Four awards carrying $59 thousand in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will face recompete. Mac AK, LLC does not subcontract and operates no parent contract vehicles; all awards are direct purchase orders.
