About this IDV
Independent Forestry, LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Eureka, Montana, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $250,000 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center on June 9, 2023. The contract, designated "VIPR I-BPA FOR FALLER FOR EAST ZONE (REGIONS 1, 2, AND 4)," is structured as a firm fixed-price vehicle with an ultimate completion date of June 9, 2028. The original solicitation, posted February 15, 2023, with a due date of March 31, 2023, was set aside for total small business participation. The contract provides the Forest Service with access to specialized faller services—trained personnel who safely cut trees and manage vegetation in wildland environments—to support vegetation management, wildfire prevention, land restoration, fire suppression, and all-hazard incident response activities across Regions 1, 2, and 4 on federally managed lands and partner organization properties.
Three delivery orders have been issued against this indefinite delivery contract to date, all performed in Libby, Montana by the prime contractor. Two delivery orders totaling $78,752 were awarded in August 2023 under contract number MTKNF000262, covering performance periods of August 5–20, 2023 and August 21–September 5, 2023, respectively. A third delivery order valued at $34,454 was awarded on August 24, 2025, under contract number MTKNF000288, with performance scheduled through September 6, 2025. These delivery orders utilized no set-aside designations despite the underlying indefinite delivery contract's small business set-aside procurement status, reflecting the non-set-aside nature of individual task orders that can be issued under multiple-award vehicles. The compressed performance schedules across all delivery orders indicate urgent operational requirements for wildland firefighting and hazard mitigation activities during critical fire season periods.
