This Blanket Purchase Agreement was awarded by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center. It provides for mobile shower facilities to support wildland fire and all hazard incidents from the prime contractor, Bush Fire Services Inc. The BPA has a single award with no set-asides used and a period of performance through December 31, 2020.
The BPA will facilitate orders for incident-specific Emergency Equipment Rental Agreements showers to support the MULLEN FIRE in Wyoming. As wildland fire suppression often requires responders to work for extended periods in remote areas, mobile shower units are a essential resource to maintain responder safety, health, and welfare. The BPA establishes pre-negotiated terms and conditions for such units to expedite orders and deployment as fire incidents arise.
No dollar value was listed for the potential task orders to be released against this BPA. However, given the scope of wildland fire suppression operations conducted by the Forest Service each year across many states, the ability to rapidly activate mobile shower facilities through this vehicle can prove invaluable to large, extended fire incidents. The BPA aims to leverage the contractor's expertise and assets to provide critical hygiene services to fire personnel with streamlined acquisition processes.
