M & D Forestry Service LLC

M & D Forestry Service LLC, a Hispanic American-owned, minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Ola, Arkansas, delivers invasive species control, vegetation management, and forest restoration services to federal land management agencies exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). The company operates as a limited liability partnership under primary NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry) and competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides across its federal footprint.

M & D Forestry Service's customer base concentrates heavily with the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The top five funding entities account for 95% of recent awards, anchored by Forest Service Region 8 (Southern Region) with 29 awards and $21.8 million combined potential value, followed by the Forest Service's Washington Office Acquisitions (1 award, $50 million), the broader Forest Service portfolio (12 awards, $1.4 million), Forest Service Region 9 (Eastern Region) (5 awards, $965 thousand), and the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service (5 awards, $390 thousand). The $50 million ceiling represents the Land Management Integrated Resources (LMIR) BPA awarded June 10, 2026, by Forest Service Acquisitions for nationwide land management services including invasive species control, site preparation, precommercial thinning, and habitat management through March 6, 2033. Concrete capability examples include a $7.5 million single-award BPA with Forest Service Region 8 for vegetation management and biological services across six national forests and grasslands in Texas (awarded September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2030), a $7.5 million single-award BPA for Kisatchie National Forest vegetation management and wildlife protection services (awarded November 2, 2022, through November 30, 2027), and a $5 million single-award IDC for vegetation management services on Ozark-St. Francis National Forest (awarded November 1, 2021, through April 30, 2027). Recent task orders under these vehicles include a $125.8 thousand invasive species control call on 764 acres in Louisiana (September 2024), a $144.6 thousand crop tree release and midstory removal contract on Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky (November 2025), and a $106.1 thousand kudzu infestation treatment call in Tennessee (September 2026).

Activity has remained relatively steady at 8 to 13 awards per year from 2022 through 2025, with 8 awards recorded in 2026 to date. The company holds four parent indefinite delivery vehicles with the Forest Service: the $50 million nationwide LMIR BPA (1 award), the $7.5 million Texas forests BPA (multiple calls), the $7.5 million Kisatchie National Forest BPA (9 task orders, $429 thousand combined potential value), and the $5 million Ozark-St. Francis IDC (12 task orders, $884 thousand combined potential value). Additional vehicles include a $804.7 thousand indefinite delivery contract for forestry and vegetation management services across southeastern national forests (awarded August 3, 2022, through August 16, 2027) and a $600 thousand tree planting IDIQ on Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri (awarded January 26, 2022, through January 26, 2027). Six awards carrying combined potential value of $337 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure primarily on existing Forest Service task order vehicles. M & D Forestry Service's service portfolio spans herbicide application (cut-stump and foliar treatments, government-provided and contractor-supplied), invasive species control (Chinese privet, kudzu, tamarisk, Chinese tallow), mechanical and manual site preparation, precommercial thinning, seedling release and tree planting, Red-Cockaded Woodpecker habitat monitoring, and specialized forest management support across southeastern and eastern national forests, national wildlife refuges, and Army Corps of Engineers recreation areas.
