RBS cannot thank everyone at Louisiana APEX Accelerator enough for all of their support over the last several years. Colleen Broussard-Perry has been a tremendous help to our compliance goals. Also, a special thank you to Cindy Carrier for nominating Red Bison Services for this prestigious award!
Congratulations to Red Bison Services, LLC and LA APEX on their Selection for a DoD APEX Accelerator Success Story Video!
We are proud to announce that Red Bison Services, LLC and the Louisiana APEX Accelerator have been selected for an upcoming APEX Accelerator Success Story Video, a recognition sponsored by the Department of Defense (DoD).
This exciting opportunity comes after Cindy Carrier, LA APEX Program Manager, submitted a compelling success story featuring Rocky Ortego, owner of Red Bison Services. Their story was selected from over 50 submissions representing 19 states—a true testament to their outstanding collaboration and achievements. The DoD is funding the video production, which is currently underway with participation from Rocky, Cindy, and DoD representatives.
Colleen Broussard-Perry, the assigned LA APEX Counselor for Red Bison Services, has played a key role in guiding the company’s growth in government contracting. Since its inception, Red Bison Services has evolved into a dynamic, multi-faceted company specializing in Construction, Facility Support, and Environmental Restoration.
Since partnering with the Louisiana APEX Accelerator in November 2023, Red Bison has received strategic support in areas such as:
- Business expansion planning
- Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) certification
- FAR Clause: Limitations on Subcontracting
- Service Contract Act compliance
- Mentor-Protégé Program participation
- NIST cybersecurity compliance, including score submission to SPRS
These efforts have helped Red Bison Services secure contracts with prominent agencies such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, U.S. Department of Agriculture, NASA, Air National Guard, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Forest Service, and the Naval Construction Force (SEABEES).
