About the company
Zara Environmental LLC, a woman-owned and veteran-owned small business headquartered in San Marcos, Texas, delivers specialized environmental consulting and karst ecosystem management services to federal agencies as a 100% prime contractor. The firm holds SBA certifications as a women-owned small business, veteran-owned business, and service-disabled veteran-owned business, and self-certifies as a small disadvantaged business. It competes across both set-aside (Total Small Business) and full-and-open procurements, though the majority of recent awards carry no set-aside designation, reflecting sole-source awards based on demonstrated technical expertise and long-standing customer relationships.
Zara Environmental's capability portfolio centers on endangered species surveying, monitoring, and habitat conservation—particularly in karst ecosystems—along with scientific peer review and environmental consulting. The firm brings over 35 years of specialized expertise in central Texas karst ecology, cave diving and rescue-qualified personnel, and familiarity with more than 1,000 documented karst features at Fort Cavazos. Representative prime awards include a $195,264.88 purchase order from the Army Corps of Engineers for karst species surveying and monitoring at Fort Cavazos (August 2024), a $123,297.85 purchase order for the same work (August 2025), a $162,000 purchase order from the Army for species surveying at Fort Hood (July 2022), and a $57,522.16 BPA call from Fish and Wildlife Service Region 2 for karst invertebrate management (May 2025). A recent $51,666.85 Total Small Business delivery order from the Fish and Wildlife Service Region 2 (September 2026) covers karst invertebrate management and monitoring at Joint Base San Antonio Camp Bullis. The firm holds two principal vehicle positions: a $6.1 million single-award BPA with the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service for scientific, technical, and advisory peer review services (awarded July 2023, completion June 2025), and a $500,000 GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract under SIN 541620 for environmental consulting (awarded October 2022, performance through October 2027). The Schedule carries a $1 million ceiling per task order and offers ten labor categories spanning administrative assistant ($81.61/hour) through principal-level scientist ($195.51/hour), with education requirements from associate through master's degree and no security clearances offered.
Customer concentration is high in the Department of the Interior ecosystem. Fish and Wildlife Service holds the top position by potential value ($6.2 million across three awards covering 55% of all awards), while the Department of the Army is the largest volume customer by count (eight awards, $1.3 million combined potential value). The top five customers account for 94% of combined potential value. Ten task orders placed under the Multiple Award Schedule generate $6.6 million in combined potential value. Activity has been modest but steady, averaging two to three awards per year across the most recent five years, with only one award ($52 thousand) facing recompete within the next twenty-four months. All 31 prime awards in the source data are held directly by Zara Environmental; the firm operates as a pure prime with no subcontractor footprint. Work is performed across Texas (San Marcos, San Antonio, Troy, and Fort Cavazos) and at federal installations nationwide, with administrative oversight in San Marcos.
