Sampson Livestock LLC

Sampson Livestock LLC, doing business as Sampson Live Stock, is a sole proprietorship small agricultural cooperative based in Fillmore, Utah, that provides wild horse and burro drive trapping, gathering, and population management services exclusively to the Bureau of Land Management across ten western states. The vendor operates as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides on its two core IDIQ vehicles and competes on full-and-open delivery orders once those IDIQs are established.

Sampson Livestock's entire federal footprint centers on BLM wild horse and burro population management. The vendor holds a $72 million single-award IDIQ for wild horse and burro drive trapping services through December 14, 2030, awarded in December 2025 under total small business set-aside, and a $20 million multiple-award IDIQ for catch, treat, hold, and release services through March 31, 2028, awarded in April 2023. Representative task orders under the drive trapping IDIQ include a $393,488 delivery order issued September 15, 2026, to gather approximately 1,035 horses in the Red Desert Complex, Wyoming; a $497,130 order from July 7, 2026, for approximately 800 horses in the Bible Spring Complex, Utah; and a $235,536 order from July 8, 2026, for approximately 360 horses in the Confusion Herd Management Area, Utah. Under the catch-treat-hold-release IDIQ, Sampson Livestock has executed task orders such as a $138,164 delivery order issued September 4, 2024, for population management services in Colorado's Little Book Cliffs Herd Management Area and a $25,000 minimum guarantee task order awarded April 5, 2023, with performance through March 2028.

Customer concentration is absolute and singular. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management National Office accounts for 65 of 69 prime awards and $131.9 million of the $132.9 million combined potential value. The vendor's remaining four awards distribute across BLM regional offices in Nevada (2 awards, $910 thousand), the Department of Agriculture Forest Service R3-Southwestern Region (1 award, $40 thousand), and BLM Utah Region (1 award, $25 thousand). The top five parent vehicles under which task orders are issued are Indefinite Delivery Contract 140L0620D0063 (18 task orders, $4.9 million combined potential value), Contract INL15PC00188 (16 task orders, $2.2 million), Contract INL12PC00121 (14 task orders, $1.8 million), Contract 140L0126D0004 (8 task orders, $1.9 million), and Contract INL17PC00060 (4 task orders, $106 thousand).

Activity has remained modest and episodic across the past five years—5 awards in 2022, 4 in 2023, 5 in 2024, 3 in 2025, and 7 year-to-date in 2026—reflecting the discrete, project-based nature of wild horse gather operations rather than sustained procurement volume. Only 2 awards are scheduled for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $393 thousand, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure. Sampson Livestock operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract work in the source data, and all 69 awards are classified under NAICS 541712 (Support Activities for Animal Production) and PSC code for natural resources and conservation wild horse and burro control, reflecting specialization in a narrow federal market niche with no diversification into adjacent capabilities or customer agencies.
