Matthew Calvin Poole

Matthew Calvin Poole, a Glasgow, Montana-based sole proprietorship, delivers landscaping and grounds-maintenance services to federal installations under total small business set-asides, operating exclusively as a prime contractor on six-figure purchase orders and project grants.

Poole competes entirely within small business set-asides and operates at a tight geographic footprint. All twelve awards in the source data carry Total Small Business designations. The vendor's customer concentration is heavily weighted to a single contracting office: the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Omaha accounts for 8 awards (67% of total) and $1.4 million in combined potential value, anchored by three large purchase orders awarded May 1, 2026 — a $325,750 contract for Fort Peck Recreation Area mowing services, a $188,000 contract for Fort Peck Dam Area mowing and trimming (both running through April 30, 2031 with four one-year option periods), and a $164,050 contract for mowing and trimming at Fort Peck's Powerplant, Administration Building, and Interpretive Center (also through April 30, 2031, active seasonal periods May through September). An earlier $219,495 purchase order from the same district covers cleaning and ground maintenance at Fourchette Bay Recreation Area, Fort Peck Reservoir (ultimate completion April 29, 2030). The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration accounts for 2 awards ($22 thousand combined) including a $4,800 snow-removal contract at the National Weather Service Weather Forecast Office in Glasgow, Montana (completed June 30, 2025). A single Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service grant rounds out the customer set. All work is performed at Fort Peck, Montana, or nearby federal facilities in Montana.

Poole's capability portfolio centers entirely on grounds maintenance, landscaping, mowing, trimming, debris removal, and seasonal services across NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services) and PSC S208 (Housekeeping-Landscaping/Groundskeeping). Nine of twelve awards fall under landscaping services; two cover snow removal and one janitorial services. The vendor has no parent vehicles, no subcontract relationships, and no cost-plus or cost-reimbursable structures — all work is firm fixed-price purchase orders or project grants. Recent activity shows growth: three awards in 2026 (May and June) following two in 2025. Combined potential value across all awards is $1.5 million, with $894 thousand obligated. Three large May 2026 awards carry ultimate completion dates of April 30, 2031, creating recompete risk or opportunity in that window. A 2023 REAP Energy Efficiency Improvement grant from USDA Rural Business Cooperative Services (completion July 31, 2025) suggests diversification into grant-funded energy projects, though details are sparse in the source.
