About Mill Creek Firelake JV LLC

Mill Creek Firelake JV LLC, Mill Creek Division, is a tribally-owned SBA 8(a) certified joint venture based in Holton, Kansas that delivers mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) construction, renovation, and repair services to the USDA Agricultural Research Service as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The vendor is a child entity of Prairie Band, LLC, a tribally-owned parent firm, and operates exclusively as a prime (100% of recent awards), with no subcontract footprint.

Mill Creek Firelake anchors its federal work almost entirely to a single $45 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the USDA Agricultural Research Service Plains Area established September 1, 2024, through August 31, 2029. This multiple-award task order vehicle, set aside for total small businesses, permits individual orders ranging from $2,000 to $2.5 million for MEP services across 11 central U.S. states. Against this parent IDC, the vendor has received 27 delivery orders totaling $23.5 million in combined potential value since the award date. Recent representative task orders include a $3.83 million liquid nitrogen system modification at the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) in Manhattan, Kansas (April 2, 2026); a $4.9 million deferred maintenance project covering Buildings 17, 18, and greenhouses at the Woodward, Oklahoma research center (May 20, 2025); a $1.33 million vivarium chiller system at Grand Forks, North Dakota (June 11, 2026); and a $5.92 million uninterruptible power systems maintenance purchase order at NBAF (September 30, 2026). Capability scope is concrete and facility-focused: boiler and chiller upgrades, cooling tower and motor replacements, HVAC system overhauls, building automation control integration, drainage and grading work, security gate repairs, and electrical service upgrades. The vendor also holds two small 8(a) sole-source purchase orders from Army Forces Command for access control system upgrades at Fort Riley, Kansas (totaling roughly $84 thousand across two awards in 2025).

Customer concentration is extreme. The USDA Agricultural Research Service Plains Area accounts for 34 of 38 awards (100% coverage by dollar value at $75.5 million of the $76.4 million combined potential value across all awards). The remaining four awards ($862 thousand combined potential value) split between the USDA Agricultural Research Service (unspecified sub-office, 2 awards) and Department of the Army Forces Command (2 awards). Activity has grown sharply: eight awards in 2024 (limited to the July through September period), 23 in 2025, and seven through late September 2026. Twelve awards (combined potential value $17.9 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore trigger recompete exposure.

The vendor's work is primarily coded under NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), which represents 29 of 38 awards. Remaining work splits across Other Building Finishing Contractors (2 awards), Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (1 award), Electrical Contractors (1 award), and Finish Carpentry Contractors (1 award). PSC distribution reflects facility maintenance and infrastructure repair: Maintenance of Office Buildings (19 awards), Maintenance/Repair of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Equipment (3 awards), Maintenance/Repair of Plumbing and Heating Equipment (2 awards), and Repair or Alteration of Laboratories and Clinics (2 awards).

On recent task orders, the vendor engages subcontractors for specialized trades and equipment supply. Named subs include Johnson Controls, Inc. (building automation and Metasys network architecture), P1 Construction LLC (electrical scope and VFD installation), Shawver & Son Inc. (demolition and interior finishes), Control Service Co Inc. (automated logic control modules), Boiler Chiller Systems LLC (compressor replacement), CL Construction LLC (feed mill distributor and spouting replacement), American Plant Products & Services Inc. (polycarbonate panel removal), and Blueville Nursery, Inc. (site grading and drainage work). These relationships are consistent with the vendor's role as a MEP prime managing multi-trade facility projects.

Mill Creek Firelake JV LLC holds SBA 8(a) certification expiring January 31, 2027, along with HUBZone, Native American Owned, and Minority Owned Business certifications. The 8(a) designation is material to its posture: nearly all awards are set-aside for total small business participation, with a small subset designated 8(a) sole source. The vendor does not hold positions on government-wide contract vehicles or GSA Schedule agreements; its entire recent footprint derives from delivery orders under the single USDA ARS Plains Area IDC. Obligated dollars ($24.9 million) represent 33% of the combined potential value ($76.4 million), indicating substantial work in progress or not yet invoiced across the 38 awards.
