Paula Watkins operates JPS Pumping & Hauling, a woman-owned small business based in Rolla, Missouri, registered in SAM.gov since 2001. The company specializes in providing sanitary refuse, waste management, and sanitation services primarily to federal government agencies, with a focus on military installations and recreation areas. As a sole proprietorship, JPS Pumping & Hauling has established itself as a reliable contractor for portable latrine maintenance, vault toilet pumping, waste collection, and disposal services across multiple federal agencies.

The company has consistently secured federal contract awards from the U.S. Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region and the U.S. Forest Service, providing a wide range of sanitation support services. These contracts have included routine monthly sanitary refuse services at Fort Leonard Wood, special event support for military installations, and vault toilet pumping in the Mark Twain National Forest. While most of the contract awards have not been set aside, JPS Pumping & Hauling has demonstrated expertise in handling both small-scale special events (such as military brigade holiday blocks and concerts) and large-scale monthly sanitation services. The contract awards have ranged from small $100 special event services to substantial monthly contracts exceeding $20,000, showcasing the company's versatility in meeting federal agency sanitation infrastructure needs.

JPS Pumping & Hauling currently holds two significant Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts: a $1,473,484.60 contract with the U.S. Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region for sanitary refuse services at Fort Leonard Wood and the Lake of the Ozarks Recreation Area (running through November 2027), and a $150,500 contract with the U.S. Forest Service for vault toilet pumping services in Missouri's Mark Twain National Forest (running through June 2027). Both IDIQ contracts are set aside for small businesses and have generated numerous task orders across their performance periods. These contracts enable the company to provide ongoing sanitation support, including portable latrine maintenance, vault toilet pumping, waste collection, and disposal services for military installations and federal recreation areas, demonstrating JPS Pumping & Hauling's critical role in maintaining sanitation infrastructure for federal agencies.
