Rice Phyllis

Rice Phyllis, a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship based in O'Fallon, Missouri, operates as a prime contractor providing gate attendant and campground management services to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers under total small business set-asides. The vendor competes exclusively under set-asides and holds no subcontract work; all six awards in the source are prime contracts.

Rice Phyllis's entire footprint consists of gate attendant and recreational facility support work at Lake Shelbyville, Illinois. The vendor's primary vehicle is the USACE Engineering District St. Louis Blanket Purchase Agreement for Gate Attendant Services, awarded January 10, 2024, with a $200,000 ceiling and maximum call order of $10,000, running through March 31, 2028. Three BPA task orders have been issued against this vehicle, each for annual gate attendant services at BO WOOD "A" campground: $7,245 (April 1, 2024; completion October 27, 2024), $7,389.90 (April 17, 2025; completion October 26, 2025), and $7,472.70 (April 1, 2026; completion October 31, 2026). Work scope includes collecting user fees, registering campers, managing campsite reservations, providing visitor information, and controlling access. The vendor is classified under NAICS 721211 (RV Parks and Campgrounds) with a small business size standard of $8 million.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers accounts for 100% of six awards and $255 thousand of the $262 thousand combined potential value. Recent activity is sparse — one award per year since 2019, with only one award ($7,472.70) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $62 thousand, representing 24% of combined potential value, indicating early-stage execution across the portfolio. The vendor has no secondary customers, no subcontract relationships, and no presence on government-wide vehicles or multi-agency IDIQs.
