Marks Transport Services LLC

Marks Transport Services LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in La Center, Washington, operates as a prime contractor providing specialized trailer transportation services to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, primarily under a single-award blanket purchase agreement structure with no subcontract footprint.

The vendor's federal work centers narrowly on moving fish marking trailers and related equipment between national fish hatchery facilities across the Pacific Northwest. Marks Transport holds a dominant position under a $25,000 BPA (140F0121A0001) awarded April 1, 2021, through March 31, 2026, which has generated 63 task orders totaling $297 thousand in obligated value across its performance period. A successor BPA was established May 15, 2026, with a $250,000 ceiling running through May 31, 2036, covering automated and manual fish marking trailer movements among 17 national fish hatcheries in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Recent representative call orders include a $105,000 award for Columbia River fisheries trailer moves (January 22, 2026), a $3,565 transport of a P2 trailer from Carson to Dworshak hatcheries (December 9, 2025), and a $3,217 trailer movement supporting the Columbia River Fisheries Program (December 2, 2025). Individual calls typically range from $640 to $9,482 and are paid via government credit card below the micro-purchase threshold.

Customer concentration sits entirely with the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service across three organizational tiers: Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 dominates by potential value (20 awards, $455 thousand), the parent Fish and Wildlife Service office accounts for 36 awards at $112 thousand, and Region 5 contributes 10 awards at $30 thousand. All 66 awards in the source are prime contracts; the vendor carries no subcontract exposure. Activity has remained steady year over year (14–18 awards annually from 2022–2025) with only two awards recorded in 2026 to date. One award (the $105,000 January 2026 order) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and represents recompete exposure for the vendor. Work is performed across multiple hatchery locations throughout the Pacific Northwest, with administrative oversight at Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 in Vancouver, Washington. The vendor must maintain a minimum $1,000,000 cargo insurance coverage and provide transportation during regular business hours as well as occasional off-hours deliveries. NAICS 484110 (General Freight Trucking, Local) and PSC R—Transportation/Travel/Relocation characterize the portfolio. Marks Transport competes without set-aside designation across both the predecessor and successor BPA vehicles, which operated and will operate under total small business set-asides at solicitation.
