About this IDV
The Forest Service Research Service Northern Research Station awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement to Skylight Forestry Inc. on August 15, 2025, for Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) data collection, with a ceiling of $7.5 million and an ultimate completion date of December 15, 2029.
Skylight Forestry Inc. is a self-certified small disadvantaged business. The BPA covers forest inventory and analysis services across 24 states, supporting nationwide forest and urban landscape research. Work involves collecting, analyzing, and distributing comprehensive information about forest extent, content, and ownership through on-site assessments on randomly located inventory plots, primarily on privately owned lands. Contractors must demonstrate technical qualifications through past performance, professional reputation, and technical capabilities, with crew leaders expected to work independently in diverse environments ranging from urban to wilderness settings.
The originating pre-solicitation notice, posted December 16, 2024, indicates the Northern Research Station anticipated multiple BPA awards to technically qualified contractors as part of a comprehensive FIA contractor suite. The BPA is not set aside for any specific small business category. A recent notable BPA call under this vehicle was issued in April 2022 for $366,295 supporting FIA data collection across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and surrounding areas.
