The U.S. Forest Service (USFS) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at $250,000 to Aspen Mountain Resources Inc., a veteran-owned small business, to provide water handling services for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response across USFS Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10. The IDC was set aside for small businesses to establish best-in-class contractors for critical firefighting capabilities. Under this IDC, the USFS has issued multiple delivery orders to Aspen Mountain Resources, ranging from $17,500 to $138,083, for the company to supply water tenders, equipment, personnel, transportation, and management to support firefighting operations in the Pacific Northwest region. Aspen Mountain Resources also holds a separate $250,000 IDC with the USFS for heavy equipment services in Oregon and Washington. These IDCs enable the USFS to quickly access Aspen Mountain Resources' specialized resources and expertise during emergency incidents. The original USFS solicitation sought water handling services, including equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, lodging, trained personnel, and supervision, to be used during local, regional, and nationwide fire suppression and all-hazard incidents. The agreement was competitively awarded using a total small business set-aside, with multiple Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) anticipated. The USFS reserves the right to periodically add new contractors through an on-ramping process to ensure a pool of best-in-class small business service providers.
