FREERKSEN, CATHERINE

Freersken, Catherine specializes in comprehensive janitorial and facility maintenance services tailored to federal land management sites, with a demonstrated focus on delivering clean, safe, and compliant environments in remote and sensitive natural resource areas. The contractor provides routine and deep-cleaning operations, waste removal, restroom sanitation, and surface disinfection services in accordance with federal environmental and health standards, particularly within National Forest System facilities. Their technical expertise includes adherence to USDA sanitation protocols, use of EPA-registered disinfectants, and compliance with OSHA and EPA guidelines for hazardous material handling in wilderness and recreational settings. A key differentiator is their ability to operate efficiently in isolated, low-infrastructure locations such as Cabinet Rd within the Kootenai National Forest, requiring logistical adaptability, equipment portability, and environmental stewardship. The contractor has established a direct working relationship with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, specifically supporting its Forest Service division through facility maintenance contracts on National Forest lands. This engagement reflects a focused alignment with USDA’s mission to maintain public access and operational readiness in protected natural areas, with work centered on sustaining hygiene and safety in visitor centers, ranger stations, and administrative buildings. The primary industry focus is on NAICS 561720 — Janitorial Services — where the contractor delivers mission-critical custodial support to federal land management operations. Their market positioning is niche, emphasizing service delivery in ecologically sensitive and geographically dispersed federal properties rather than urban or institutional settings. As a Woman-Owned Business operating under the 2J entity structure, Freersken, Catherine is certified under the SBA’s Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) program, enhancing eligibility for federal set-aside contracts. Based in Trout Creek, Montana, the business maintains a localized presence with operational reach into rural federal sites across the Northern Rockies, positioning it as a trusted provider for remote facility maintenance needs within the USDA’s regional footprint.
