About the company
Swanston Equipment Corporation, doing business as Swanston Equipment Company, is a small disadvantaged business based in Fargo, North Dakota that supplies and rents construction and landscaping equipment to federal agencies under Total Small Business set-asides, operating exclusively as a prime contractor across a small but active award portfolio.
Swanston is a for-profit corporation and subsidiary of Swanston Equipment Company (parent). The vendor operates across NAICS codes spanning construction machinery manufacturing (5 awards), lawn and garden equipment manufacturing (3 awards), and industrial truck and tractor manufacturing (2 awards), with product scope including wheeled and tracked loaders, excavators, zero-turn mowers, and equipment attachments. Recent representative awards include a $15,703.51 purchase order from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Region 6 (August 2026) for a wheeled skid steer loader with LED lighting, Bluetooth connectivity, high-flow hydraulics, a 74-inch bucket, three-year Machine IQ subscription, and two-year warranty, with delivery to Arrowwood National Wildlife Refuge in North Dakota due February 1, 2027; a $17,719 purchase order from the Air National Guard (June 2026) for a 14-foot sectional snow pusher; and a $3,391.30 purchase order from Fish and Wildlife Service Region 6 (May 2026) for a mini track loader to Arrowwood National Wildlife Refuge. The vendor also performs short-term equipment rentals, including a $3,300 excavator rental to Air Force Global Strike Command at Minot Air Force Base (June 2025).
Customer concentration reflects regional and interior agency focus. The Department of Energy Western Area Power Administration leads by award count (7 awards, $111 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 6 (6 awards, $68 thousand), while the Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs Great Plains Region anchors the dollar-value ranking with a single $140 thousand award. The top five agencies account for 89% of awards and 96% of combined potential value. Swanston has worked with seven distinct federal agencies across a nineteen-award portfolio spanning 2010 to August 2026, though activity remains sparse and episodic — one award in 2019, one in 2021, one in 2024, two in 2025, and three in 2026. All nineteen awards are firm-fixed-price purchase orders under Total Small Business set-asides, with only one award (combined potential value $16 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The vendor holds no position on government-wide vehicles, IDIQs, or BPAs and performs all work at discrete federal locations in North Dakota and nearby regions.
