Natural Resource Planning Services, Inc.

Natural Resource Planning Services, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in San Antonio, Florida, provides timber sale preparation, forest stand examination, and timber cruising services to the U.S. Forest Service and the Department of the Air Force as a prime contractor operating exclusively under set-aside vehicles (100% of recent awards). The company competes across Total Small Business designations and holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Forest Service Region 8–Southern Region valued at up to $9,999,999 through April 2028.

Customer concentration is stark and split between two federal customers. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 8–Southern Region dominates by potential value, accounting for 7 awards worth $10.1 million combined (94% of the vendor's portfolio); the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command holds 15 awards totaling $608 thousand. The divergence between award count (Air Force leading 15-to-7) and dollar value (Forest Service leading by nine times) reflects the Air Force awards' small, recurring nature versus the Forest Service's larger timber-support BPA structure.

Natural Resource Planning Services' entire footprint runs through two parent vehicles. The Forest Service Blanket Purchase Agreement 12444123A0023, the vendor's primary vehicle, anchors the portfolio with 6 task orders (combined potential value $128 thousand); recent calls under this BPA include a $40,202 BPA call for 60 miles of boundary layout and 70 miles of area determination across 1,776 acres near Sanderson, Florida (awarded September 30, 2026, due March 31, 2027), a $25,286 Rock Bluff timber sale preparation call (July 21, 2025), a $23,858 Lost Creek layout and cruising call (July 21, 2025), and a $14,015 Liberty timber sale layout call (January 1, 2025). The Air Force Indefinite Delivery Contract FA481407D0016 carries 6 task orders totaling $254 thousand, reflecting smaller, more frequent orders.

Work spans NAICS codes dominated by Support Activities for Forestry (17 awards) and includes Timber Tract Operations and Forest Nurseries and Gathering of Forest Products. PSC concentration aligns with forestry mission: Natural Resources/Conservation–Seedling Production/Transplanting (12 awards) and Natural Resources/Conservation–Other (7 awards) account for the vendor's service posture. Performance locations include multiple Florida sites (Eastpoint, Crawfordville, Sanderson) where the Forest Service manages timber operations.

Activity has been sparse and irregular—two awards in 2016, then a gap until 2023, with recent uptick to three awards in 2025 and one in 2026. Only one award (combined potential value $40 thousand) reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating limited recompete exposure in the near term. Combined dollars obligated across the portfolio stand at $641 thousand against $10.7 million combined potential value, reflecting the early-stage, call-based nature of the BPA work.
