Pinyon Environmental, Inc.

Pinyon Environmental, Inc. (doing business as Pinyon Environmental Engineering Resour) is a woman-owned small business based in Lakewood, Colorado, that delivers environmental consulting and cultural resource survey services to civilian federal agencies primarily as a prime contractor (94% of recent awards) under total small business and woman-owned small business set-asides. The vendor holds a $50 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with USDA Forest Service for land management integrated resources services and a $14.6 million General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule contract, anchoring a portfolio of 146 awards worth $131 million in combined potential value across 39 distinct customer agencies over the past two decades.

Pinyon Environmental's capability portfolio centers on cultural resource inventories and National Historic Preservation Act compliance surveys, environmental assessments and regulatory clearance (especially Section 106 compliance for NRCS Environmental Quality Incentives Program projects), NEPA documentation, air quality monitoring, wetlands delineation and assessment, hazardous materials surveys, and related environmental engineering and site characterization work. Representative prime work includes a $824,880 definitive contract with USDA NRCS Western Region for the Little Suction Creek Watershed Project at Fort Belknap, Montana (plan-EA development with tribal engagement, completed December 2026), a $278,148 purchase order from National Park Service Pacific West Region for environmental compliance and wetland delineation at Mount Rainier National Park State Route 410 corridor (completion extended to March 2027 via recent modification), a $170,312 delivery order from Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management for pre-NEPA wetlands services, and multiple NRCS cultural resource clearance orders across Utah and Colorado counties totaling over $300,000 combined in small-acre archaeological surveys. The vendor's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 49 categories at $63.33 to $241.91 per hour, ranging from assistant technical specialists (high school, zero experience) through master's-degree engineers and scientists (seven years experience), with no security-cleared roles; this breadth supports field crews, project managers, and senior environmental engineers across delivery orders.

Customer concentration is heavily skewed to civilian land-management and conservation agencies. By award count, GSA Public Buildings Service Region 8 leads with 54 awards ($2.6 million), followed by USDA NRCS Western Region (9 awards, $1.5 million) and Army Corps of Engineers (9 awards, $10.4 million); however, by potential value, the ranking shifts dramatically — USDA Forest Service Acquisitions anchors the portfolio with the single $50 million LMIR BPA, followed by BLM National Office at $45.5 million, GSA Federal Acquisition Service at $16 million, and Army Corps of Engineers at $10.4 million. The two rankings diverge significantly: GSA's high award count reflects many small delivery orders under MAS (100 task orders, $51.7 million combined value), while BLM and Forest Service dollars are concentrated in fewer but larger vehicles. The Multiple Award Schedule and its subordinate Professional Services Schedule account for roughly 152 task orders and $56.3 million combined potential value, making GSA the dominant vehicle. The $10 million BLM Air Quality BPA (expired April 2025) and the four task orders under Land Management Integrated Resources National BPA round out the major parent vehicles.

Recent activity shows a declining trajectory: nine awards in 2022, seventeen in 2023, fifteen in 2024, eight in 2025, and seven in 2026 year-to-date. Only ten awards (combined potential value $1.9 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal near-term recompete pressure; the $50 million Forest Service BPA does not expire until March 2033, and the GSA MAS contract runs through March 2027. Pinyon Environmental's environmental consulting footprint is heavily concentrated in the Southwest and Rocky Mountain regions — Colorado, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Wyoming, Nevada, and Washington — with work also extending into Montana, Nebraska, Indiana, and South Dakota.

In its subcontractor role, Pinyon Environmental provides hazardous materials assessment, environmental engineering, and geophysical survey support to primes Benham-Stanley, LLC (four sub-awards as of September 2024 for Air Force facility and military projects at Kirtland AFB and Edwards AFB) and RSP Architects, Limited (three sub-awards for Army Reserve Center environmental compliance work in Denver and Birmingham). The vendor also holds a subsidiary interest in Confluence Consulting Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, and a joint venture with Pinyon-Sundance JV, LLC; neither subsidiary receives named awards in the source data, but they position the vendor for SDB and small-business joint-venture contracting when needed. Pinyon Environmental competes predominantly under total small business and woman-owned small business set-asides across its prime base, with mixed full-and-open work under GSA MAS and Army Corps IDIQs. The category concentration reflects its capability center: Environmental Consulting Services (116 awards) dominates, with Environmental Systems Protection and Toxic/Hazardous Substance Analysis, Special Studies/Analysis for Environmental Assessments and Archaeological/Paleontological work, and Support–Professional roles making up the tail.
