Indefinite Delivery Contract 12024B26T7148

Minuteman EMS LLC, a veteran-owned small business, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), a component of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, on February 6, 2026. The contract, valued at $250,000 with an ultimate completion date of June 16, 2028, is classified as firm fixed price under the Total Small Business set-aside. The contract scope encompasses Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Life Support (BLS) ambulance services for Region 13 on a national basis, supporting the Forest Service's emergency medical service requirements across multiple western states. The services are delivered through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) program, which enables Forest Service regions to issue firm-fixed-price delivery orders as needed to support land management, fire suppression, and all-hazard incident response operations.

The contract provides critical medical transport capabilities and emergency ambulance support to the USDA Forest Service, allowing the agency to rapidly obtain paramedic and EMT ambulance services during forest management activities, firefighting operations, and other incident response scenarios. As a multiple-award IDC, this vehicle enables the Forest Service to issue individual task orders to Minuteman EMS for specific medical transport needs, with the contractor maintaining the capacity to deploy Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support equipped ambulances. The firm-fixed-price structure provides cost certainty for the government, while the indefinite delivery mechanism allows flexibility in ordering quantities and timing of services based on operational requirements. This arrangement ensures the Forest Service has access to pre-vetted emergency medical transport capabilities without requiring full and open competition on each individual service requirement.
