Snow Country Contracting Inc.

Snow Country Contracting Inc., an SBA-certified HUBZone small disadvantaged business headquartered in Bessemer, Michigan, delivers road and facility construction and maintenance services to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor under small-business set-asides and full-and-open competition. The vendor competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides on its heaviest-activity vehicles and across full-and-open calls on IDIQ task orders; across its 55 recent awards, all are prime work with no subcontractor volume.

Snow Country Contracting's capability portfolio centers on civil infrastructure construction—culvert and stream-crossing replacement, road rerouting and rehabilitation, trail and bridge installation, and campground and facilities upgrades. Concrete recent work includes a $1.01 million Total Small Business purchase order from the U.S. Forest Service Region 9 for Forest Road 2130 perch lake road rehabilitation in Iron County, Michigan (mobilization, drainage, riprap, culvert replacement, awarded May 27, 2026); a $747,721.55 Sidnaw Creek aquatic organism passage culvert replacement in Ottawa National Forest, Michigan (July 2024); a $384,019.08 Franklin Lake improvements delivery order (May 2022); and multiple $96,000 to $208,000 culvert-replacement BPA calls under the Northeast Zone Region 9 Roads vehicle focused on aquatic organism passage and habitat connectivity across Wisconsin and Michigan national forests.

The vendor's customer base is concentrated with a single agency. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 9 (Eastern Region) accounts for 44 of 55 recent awards (91% coverage) valued at $19.1 million combined potential value. The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission holds 5 awards with no dollar value disclosed, and the Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions holds 1 award valued at $176 thousand. Dollar volume and award count track tightly—the Eastern Region dominates both dimensions with no tension between rankings.

Snow Country Contracting holds four active BPA vehicles with the Forest Service Eastern Region: the Northeast Zone Region 9 Roads BPA (multiple award, $250,000 per task order ceiling, through March 2032) with 11 task orders totaling $1.7 million; the Roads and General Construction Multiple Award IDIQ (10 task orders, $2.3 million combined value); the Northeast Region 9 Facilities BPA (multiple award, $250,000 ceiling, through February 2032) with 3 task orders valued at $83 thousand; and a single-award R9 Roads BPA (award date December 2024, $250,000 ceiling, through February 2032) with 1 task order at $103 thousand. Primary NAICS categories are Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction (31 awards) and Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction (7 awards); primary PSC is Repair or Alteration of Highways/Roads/Streets/Bridges/Railways (27 awards).

Activity trajectory shows significant contraction. The vendor delivered 14 awards in 2022, declining to 6 in 2024, 2 in 2025, and 1 in 2026. Only 3 awards totaling $1.2 million potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. The SCI dataset captured $748 thousand in invoiced revenue in FY2024 across 0.6 FTEs, reflecting only one reportable service contract above the $150,000 threshold in that period; SCI coverage is a narrow subset of the vendor's construction-oriented contract footprint, which is dominated by goods-and-services purchases and project-based deliverables outside SCI scope. The vendor delivered no subcontractor volume across its prime records and maintains a fully owned delivery model.
