About this award

Fire Ignition Resources LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Talladega, Alabama, was awarded a $311,832.52 firm fixed-price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) under a moratorium exception for aerial ignition device development focused on ping-pong ball technology. The contract, awarded on September 19, 2025, is not designated as a set-aside and carries an ultimate completion date of December 1, 2025. Fire Ignition Resources LLC specializes in manufacturing Premo Fireball spheres—1.25-inch polystyrene balls containing potassium permanganate—which are used for aerial ignition in controlled burning operations across federal lands.

The National Interagency Fire Center, a civilian federal agency, utilizes aerial ignition devices as critical tools for wildfire prevention, prescribed burning operations, and land management across national forests and other federal properties. Fire Ignition Resources LLC has established itself as a trusted supplier through numerous prior federal contract awards from the U.S. Forest Service, Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, and other agencies responsible for wildland fire management. This specific contract award continues the company's role in providing specialized pyrotechnic aerial ignition equipment to support federal land management and habitat conservation initiatives, with the place of performance located in Talladega, Alabama.
