Sundance Consultants, LLC

Sundance Consultants, LLC, a Native American-owned and Women-Owned Small Business certified as an 8(a) Program Participant, provides environmental consulting, cultural resource surveys, NEPA compliance assessments, endangered species monitoring, and natural resource management services to federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (95% of recent awards) and subcontractor on environmental remediation projects. Headquartered in Pocatello, Idaho, Sundance operates as a subsidiary of True Environmental Holdings LLC and competes predominantly under set-aside vehicles — roughly 60% of awards across the recent footprint carry Total Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Business, or Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise designations, with the remaining 40% issued full-and-open.

Sundance's customer base spans 46 federal agencies, concentrated among land-management and environmental-response organizations. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 62% of recent awards: the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Intermountain Region leads with 63 awards ($11.3 million combined potential value), followed by the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (38 awards, $3.1 million), the Army Corps of Engineers Albuquerque District (35 awards, $32.6 million), the National Park Service National Office (33 awards, $3.4 million), and the Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center (25 awards, $2.7 million). By dollar concentration, however, the distribution widens: the Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station anchors 26% of combined potential value across seven awards valued at $44.1 million; the Army Corps ($32.6 million) and BLM National Office ($30.5 million) follow, alongside the Bureau of Reclamation ($30.1 million) and Bureau of Indian Affairs Central Office ($18.2 million). Sundance holds extensive indefinite delivery vehicles placing it across civilian agencies: the GSA Multiple Award Schedule carries 108 task orders worth $383.2 million in combined potential value, supplemented by single-award and multi-award BPAs with the Forest Service ($50 million Land Management Integrated Resources BPA), Bureau of Land Management ($30 million national planning and NEPA BPA), Forest Service Southern Region ($7 million), and USDA ($297 million Master Environmental and Technical Support Services METSS BPA). Most recently, Sundance was awarded seats on the OASIS+ Women-Owned Small Business IDIQ (June 12, 2025, no dollar ceiling specified) and the OASIS+ Total Small Business set-aside IDIQ (December 19, 2024, no dollar ceiling specified), both running through 2029–2030 and opening access to broad professional services ordering across the federal government.

Sundance's capability portfolio centers on cultural resource surveys and archaeological investigations, environmental compliance and NEPA documentation, environmental site assessments and remediation support, endangered species and natural resource monitoring, and land management planning. Representative prime work includes a $7.09 million delivery order (extended to September 2, 2026) from the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration for Phase II Bulk Fuels Remedial Field Investigation at the Albuquerque facility; a $4 million delivery order from U.S. Customs and Border Protection for natural and cultural resource monitoring supporting border wall construction in the Rio Grande Valley Sector (completion December 31, 2027); a $4.73 million delivery order from CBP for resource monitoring in the Del Rio Sector (completion December 30, 2027); an $11.5 million task order from the USDA Rural Business-Cooperative Service under the METSS BPA for technical services supporting the Rural Energy for America Program and Higher Blends Infrastructure Incentive Program (extended to July 10, 2026); and a $3.89 million contract from the Bureau of Indian Affairs Navajo Region for clean closure of the Chichiltah Boarding School landfill in New Mexico (completion August 29, 2025). Smaller task orders cluster around cultural inventories, fuel-break surveys, post-fire environmental site restoration work, and NEPA assessments across Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and New Mexico. The company also delivers expert witness services and provides labor across GSA Schedule 11 categories ranging from Technician I ($62.63/hr, high school plus four years' experience) through Program Manager ($197.23/hr, bachelor's degree plus ten years' experience), with no security clearances offered.

Activity has remained stable over the past five years — 20 awards in 2022, 21 in 2023, 22 in 2024, declining to 14 in 2025 and 7 in the first half of 2026. Twenty-two awards carrying combined potential value of $25.2 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting a moderate recompete cliff. Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts (contracts above the $150,000 threshold), Sundance invoiced $7.8 million from FY2022 through FY2024, with sharp growth in FY2024 ($6.3 million, 23.1 FTEs) compared to FY2023 ($709 thousand, 1.6 FTEs). Government-paid hourly rates on these contracts ran a median of $254.36/hr, with the 10th percentile at $112.18/hr and the 90th percentile at $384.93/hr. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed roughly 19% of total contractor hours on average, with ten named subcontractors engaged; Sundance operates predominantly as a prime delivery organization rather than as a feeder subcontractor, though it does subcontract to larger environmental remediation firms such as Tetra Tech and EA Engineering for specialized roles on contaminated-site investigations and feasibility studies under EPA Region 6 and Region 9 removal-site evaluation programs.

The corporate structure comprises 11 named subsidiaries, several carrying Indian Economic Enterprise and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise certifications (Sundance-CTI LLC, Sundance EA Associates II, Sundance-EA II LLC, Sundance-EA Alliance LLC, Sundance-CTI Affiliates LLC, and Sundance-EA Partners entities), which enable targeted pursuit of tribally set-aside and Indian-owned contracting opportunities. Parent company True Environmental Holdings LLC provides centralized administrative and financial management while maintaining Sundance's independent federal contracting identity and set-aside posture.
