Sweat US LLC

Sweat US LLC, a Native American-owned, 8(a) certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Milton, Florida, provides mechanical and manual vegetation management, fuels reduction, and forestry services to federal land management agencies exclusively as a prime contractor. The company holds SBA 8(a) Program certification through November 2027 and competes heavily under total small business and 8(a) set-asides across a 215-award portfolio spanning hazardous fuels reduction, forest thinning, mastication, prescribed burning, site preparation, reforestation, and invasive species control under primary NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry).

Sweat US LLC's customer concentration sits with the U.S. Forest Service across multiple regions, which accounts for the vast majority of its awards and combined potential value. The top five customer agencies by award count—USDA Forest Service Region 2 (58 awards, $94.3 million), Region 9 (24 awards, $10 million), Region 8 (22 awards, $26 million), Department of the Interior National Park Service Intermountain Region (18 awards, $20.5 million), and USDA Forest Service Region 3 (12 awards, $64.1 million)—represent 62% of all awards. When ranked by potential value, the concentration shifts slightly upward: USDA Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) leads with two awards valued at $100.4 million combined, followed by Region 2 at $94.3 million, Region 3 at $64.1 million, Region 1 (Northern) at $62.5 million, and Region 5 (Pacific Southwest) at $50.1 million. Secondary customers include the Bureau of Land Management (Idaho, Arizona, and New Mexico regions), the Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Air Force Test Center, and the National Park Service. Forest Service work dominates the portfolio both by count and dollars, with the company operating as the sole prime across all awards—zero subcontractor relationships in the source data.

Sweat US LLC holds a constellation of large-value parent vehicles anchoring its federal footprint. The Forest Service Region 2 Vegetation Management IDIQ generated 20 task orders worth $4.4 million combined; the company also seats on multiple single-award regional stewardship BPAs valued at $50 million each across Forest Service Regions 1, 3, 5, and Region 2, plus a $50 million Northern Rockies Stewardship BPA, a $50 million Pacific Southwest Stewardship BPA, a $49.5 million national hazardous fuels reduction BPA with the Fish and Wildlife Service, a $100 million Region 6 Vegetation Management IDC, a $12.5 million mechanical thinning IDIQ covering Regions 1 and 4, a $10 million Florida reforestation BPA, and a $7.5 million southwestern tree planting IDIQ with a May 2026 award date. Recent representative awards include a $631,850 delivery order for manual thinning on 702 acres (Rocky Mountain Region, August 2024), a $935,289 stewardship project order in Colorado (Region 2, August 2023), and a $543,147.50 brush-cutting order on 2,050 acres (Southern Region, September 2024). Notable large definitive contracts include a $3.8 million naval small arms range repair at Kings Bay Base (November 2021), a $2.4 million Wilhoit mastication project in Arizona (September 2021), and a $1.8 million Racetrack Heritage survey and mastication in the Southwestern Region (September 2021).

Activity trajectory shows significant volatility: 29 awards in 2022, declining to 9 in 2023, rebounding to 15 in 2024, then dropping to 7 in 2025 and 4 in the first five months of 2026. Only three awards face completion within the next twenty-four months with combined potential value of $507 thousand, indicating minimal recompete exposure in the immediate window but also suggesting earlier recompete activity clustered in prior years. Combined potential value across all 215 awards stands at $577.9 million, with obligated dollars of only $56.6 million (10% obligation rate), typical for indefinite delivery vehicles and BPAs that carry ceiling values without full funding.

Service Contract Inventory data provides a narrow window into federal service-contract activity above the $150,000 threshold: SCI shows $4.7 million in FY2022 invoiced revenue across 62.3 FTEs on 11 reportable prime contracts, with zero SCI activity reported in FY2023 and FY2024. This gap does not reflect zero federal activity—the company continued winning awards throughout 2023 and 2024—but rather indicates that SCI-reportable contracts (those meeting the $150,000 threshold and involving service-contract labor) represent a small slice of Sweat US LLC's actual federal portfolio, which is dominated by equipment-intensive mechanical treatment work (mastication, thinning) and smaller purchase orders that fall below SCI reporting thresholds. On SCI-reportable labor, government-paid rates ran from $20.56/hr at the tenth percentile to $138.68/hr at the ninety-percentile across prime contracts, with a median of $31.16/hr. The company operates without named subcontractors across all records (0% sub-hours share on SCI contracts), performing work exclusively with its own crews.

Sweat US LLC's capability portfolio is tightly focused on labor-intensive federal land stewardship: mechanical and hand-thinning of pinyon-juniper, ponderosa pine, and longleaf ecosystems; mastication and fuels reduction across western national forests and public lands; prescribed fire preparation and support; site preparation and hand-piling for reforestation; invasive species control via herbicide application and manual removal; and timberstand improvement. Geographically, work spans national forests and grasslands across Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona, New Mexico, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Florida, Pennsylvania, and specialized assignments at military installations including Eglin Air Force Base and Joint Base Lewis-McChord. The set-aside posture is predominantly total small business (NAICS 115310 set-asides) and 8(a) sole-source or competitive designations; recent 2025–2026 awards show increased full-and-open competition alongside continued set-aside utilization, suggesting either broadening customer confidence in the company's non-set-aside capabilities or strategic vendor shifts among purchasing offices.
