AUSTIN R HARRIS

Austen R. Harris specializes in the procurement and delivery of refined petroleum products, particularly #2 fuel oil and propane, to critical federal facilities in remote and tribal regions. The contractor’s core expertise lies in ensuring uninterrupted energy supply for healthcare, administrative, and operational infrastructure, with a focus on compliance-driven logistics for government-owned facilities. Their technical capabilities include fuel handling, storage system coordination, and just-in-time delivery under firm-fixed-price contracts, often serving mission-critical sites such as hospitals and tribal agency buildings. A key differentiator is their localized presence in Belcourt, ND, enabling rapid response and reliable service to isolated federal installations with limited supply chain access. The contractor maintains a consistent relationship with the Department of Health and Human Services, primarily supplying heating and operational fuel to the Quentin N. Burdick Memorial Health Care Facility and associated clinics. They also support the Department of the Interior, particularly the Bureau of Indian Affairs’ Turtle Mountain Agency, delivering propane for facility operations and infrastructure maintenance. These engagements reflect a pattern of long-term, recurring service agreements tied to essential utility needs in tribal and federal healthcare environments. Their primary industry focus is in petroleum refining and distribution (NAICS 324110), where they function as a specialized energy logistics provider rather than a refiner. Secondary work includes facility maintenance tasks such as door replacement and janitorial services, though these represent minimal activity compared to their dominant fuel delivery role. The contractor is positioned as a niche supplier for remote federal infrastructure requiring dependable, compliant energy solutions. Austen R. Harris operates as a small, locally based entity (2J structure) with no formal government certifications. Their market positioning is defined by geographic proximity to tribal and federal facilities in North Dakota, allowing them to serve as a responsive, on-the-ground vendor for energy-critical missions where national contractors face logistical challenges.
