Mountain West Seed Co Inc.

Mountain West Seed Co Inc., doing business as Mountain West Seed Co, supplies certified native plant seeds for federal land management and ecological restoration as a prime contractor under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designation. The company is a for-profit corporate entity headquartered in Ephraim, Utah, and operates across NAICS categories primarily under 113210 (Forest Nurseries and Gathering of Forest Products) and under PSC codes for seeds and nursery stock.

The vendor's customer base is nearly monolithic. The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region accounts for 35 awards (71% of recent activity) with $9.4 million in combined potential value. The broader BLM organization, including the National Office, accounts for the remaining prime work; across all interior department relationships, BLM Idaho Region dominates both award count and dollar concentration. Mountain West has performed no subcontract work and operates exclusively as a prime contractor.

Mountain West's award footprint consists almost entirely of semi-annual consolidated seed buy contracts. Recent representative work includes a $1.019 million firm-fixed-price definitive contract from BLM Idaho Region for the FY24-2 Fall Consolidated Seed Buy (August 2024, delivery January 2025), a $505,544 definitive contract for the FY25-2 Fall Consolidated Seed Buy (September 2025, delivery December 2025), and a $39,950 purchase order for the FY26-1 Spring Consolidated Seed Buy (April 2026, delivery May 2026). All awards are structured as full-and-open procurements evaluated on best-value basis under BLM's National Seed Warehouse System strategy. Seeds supplied include native grasses, forbs, shrubs, sagebrush, and ecosystem-specific varieties, all certified for federal specifications, with delivery to multiple BLM locations across western public lands.

Activity has been sparse — one award per year in 2022, 2023, 2025, and 2026, with two in 2024 — reflecting the semi-annual procurement cycle rather than a growth trajectory. Combined potential value across all 56 awards in the source is $13.2 million, with obligated dollars reaching $13.7 million. The vendor has accumulated approximately $2.9 million in contract value between fiscal years 2021 and 2025 with BLM Idaho Region alone, indicating a stable, long-standing relationship anchored to seasonal land restoration and revegetation projects.

In business for 27 years, providing services in collecting, harvesting, cleaning, & selling of native plant seeds such as grass seeds, brush, and forbs.
