Richards, Doyle

Richards, Doyle, a sole proprietorship based in Tingley, Iowa, operates as a prime contractor providing off-range pasture services and long-term animal care and management for the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management Wild Horse and Burro Program under a small-business set-aside indefinite-delivery contract. The vendor competes exclusively within one customer relationship and one contracting vehicle — all 23 recent prime awards flow from the BLM National Office, representing 100% of its customer concentration and combined potential value of $716.9 million.

Richards, Doyle specializes exclusively in care, feeding, and long-term housing of wild horses and burros removed from public lands across 14 western states, performing work directly from facilities in Tingley, Iowa and Nowata, Oklahoma without identified subcontractors. The vendor's entire award footprint derives from the Off-Range Pasture Services—Wild Horse and Burro Program IDIQ, a $700 million multiple-award small-business set-aside contract awarded August 22, 2025, with ultimate completion June 30, 2035 under RFP 140L0125R0001. The IDIQ carries NAICS 115210 (Support Activities for Animal Production) and PSC F016 (Natural Resources/Conservation—Wildhorse/Burro Control). Recent delivery orders under this vehicle include a July 16, 2026 award valued at $385,440 (firm fixed price, small-business set-aside, performance through June 30, 2037), a December 18, 2025 award of $185,561.20 (no set-aside designation, performance through June 30, 2026), and a June 18, 2025 award of $300,234.40 (no set-aside designation, performance through June 30, 2026). Richards, Doyle also holds position on an earlier BLM IDIQ (INL15PC00021) with 17 historical task orders valued at $3.1 million combined.

The source indicates Richards, Doyle has maintained a sustained contracting relationship with BLM since SAM.gov registration in 2008, with individual task order values historically ranging from approximately $67,000 to $301,000. Recent activity shows three awards in 2022, one in 2023, one in 2024, four in 2025, and one in 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all 23 awards total $4.7 million (1% of combined potential value), reflecting the IDIQ's large ceiling against modest near-term call obligations. The vendor's competitive posture is exclusively full-and-open or small-business set-aside within the BLM vehicle; no sub-award activity or teaming relationships appear in the source.
