Sawtooth Industrial LLC

Sawtooth Industrial LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business and limited liability company headquartered in Paul, Idaho, manufactures and repairs specialized snow removal equipment for the National Park Service as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides and full-and-open competitions. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime (100% of recent awards) and competes in both set-aside and unrestricted categories, with a customer footprint concentrated in the Department of the Interior National Park Service across three regional offices.

Sawtooth's capability portfolio centers on the design, manufacture, and field repair of heavy snow removal equipment for alpine and high-elevation park operations. Representative work includes a $1.395 million firm fixed-price purchase order awarded by the National Park Service Intermountain Region in September 2025 for a specialized rotary snowplow with advanced technical specifications to support Yellowstone National Park's spring road-opening operations; a $632 thousand total small business set-aside purchase order from the Pacific West Region in August 2024 for a loader with mounted snowblower attachment delivered to Yosemite National Park; and a $213 thousand total small business set-aside award in May 2026 from the Intermountain Region to rebuild a 1998 Kodiak loader-mounted snowblower for Bryce Canyon National Park, including a new S2 Center Drive gearbox, ST-Fused electronic management system, and complete engine overhaul. Secondary work includes repair and maintenance contracts for existing equipment across Olympic National Park and snow-thrower deliveries to the Federal Aviation Administration's Southwestern Region.

Customer concentration is heavily tilted toward the National Park Service Intermountain Region, which accounts for three awards and $1.7 million of the combined potential value across all seven recent awards. The Pacific West Region holds two awards ($694 thousand), and the Federal Aviation Administration Southwestern Region holds two awards ($255 thousand), together covering 100% of the vendor's named federal customer base. The vendor's recent activity accelerated in 2025, when four of seven awards were issued, though the award pace has not sustained into 2026. Two awards (combined potential value $1.6 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and are therefore subject to recompete. The vendor has not held seats on government-wide acquisition contracts, blanket purchase agreements, or agency-wide IDIQs; all work flows through individual purchase orders under specific national park or regional requirements.
