Outbackjack LLC

Outbackjack LLC, doing business as The Turd Herder, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Gunnison, Colorado that provides vault toilet pumping, cleaning, maintenance, and waste removal services to federal land management agencies as a prime contractor under small business set-asides. The company holds single-award BPAs with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region and the Bureau of Land Management Colorado Region, both valued at $250,000, and operates exclusively under total small business set-aside designations across its prime portfolio.

The vendor's customer base is concentrated in two agencies that account for 100% of its award activity. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region represents nine awards with $695,000 in combined potential value, while the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Colorado Region represents seven awards with $342,000 in combined potential value. Work is performed at remote recreational facilities across the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests, the Gunnison Field Office including the High Altitude Alpine Loop, and ranger districts across western Colorado.

The vendor's work is anchored to two parent BPAs. The Forest Service BPA (1240LQ22A0002) running through August 31, 2027 has generated four task orders totaling $107,000 in potential value, including a $35,000 call issued August 4, 2025 for vault toilet pumping on the Gunnison and Paonia Ranger Districts and a $19,663 call issued August 1, 2026 for pumping and maintenance across the same ranger districts. The BLM Colorado Region BPA (140L2320A0001) running through September 30, 2028 has generated three task orders totaling $11,000 in potential value, with a $15,000 call issued September 5, 2024 for vault toilet pumping at high-altitude alpine locations.

Activity has remained low and steady, with one award in 2025 and one in 2026 following two awards each in 2023 and 2024. Two awards (combined potential value $55,000) have ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months and face recompete in that window. Total combined potential value across all sixteen awards is $1 million, with $203,000 obligated to date (20% of potential value). Outbackjack operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint and competes only within total small business set-aside vehicles. The vendor's work portfolio is concentrated in NAICS 571600 (Septic Tank and Related Services) with secondary work spanning maintenance and custodial-janitorial service classifications.
