Winn Osterhout

Winn Osterhout, a sole proprietor and self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Declo, Idaho, provides snow measurement and helicopter aerial survey services to federal agencies on full-and-open purchase orders, competing without set-aside designation. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor on small-dollar, location-specific work — all three recent awards total $18 thousand in combined potential value.

Winn Osterhout's entire customer footprint concentrates with a single agency: the Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Western Region accounts for 100% of tracked awards and 100% of combined potential value. The vendor delivers snow survey measurement services and helicopter flight operations in the Raft River area of Idaho to support NRCS water supply outlook reporting and Department of Interior hydrological monitoring. Representative awards include a $6,272 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Department of Interior's West Region awarded February 5, 2026, for helicopter flight services conducting snow data collection near Raft River with an April 6, 2026 completion deadline; a $6,090 NRCS purchase order awarded January 16, 2025, for snow measurement services in the Raft River area; and a $5,535 NRCS purchase order awarded February 22, 2024, for snow survey measurements supporting the water supply outlook report. Activity is minimal — one award per year across 2024, 2025, and 2026 — and the vendor holds no parent contracts, IDVs, GWACs, or BPAs. Work is performed in Declo, Idaho, with no evident subcontracting footprint or multi-agency exposure.
