It covers water handling services for fire suppression and all-hazard incident support in USDA Forest Service Regions 3 (Southwestern) and 8 (Southern) through a Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement (I-BPA). The contract provides for the procurement of equipment, personnel, transportation, and logistical resources necessary for wildland fire protection, emergency response, and prescribed project work. The geographical scope covers specific dispatch centers, with vendor selection prioritizing resources closest to potential incident locations to ensure timely and cost-effective response capabilities. The contract has an ultimate completion date of May 6, 2030 and enables rapid deployment of ESSI's specialized services, including emergency medical responders, ambulance services, water handling operations, and faller services across various forest service regions.
The original solicitation was a pre-solicitation notice posted on February 4, 2025, with quotes due by March 10, 2025. The procurement was designated as a total small business set-aside, with the government anticipating multiple I-BPA awards across the specified regions. Interested vendors were required to meet several critical qualifications, including having a valid email address, a Unique Entity ID (UEI) number, active System for Award Management (SAM) registration, and a Login.gov account. Quotes were to be evaluated based on capabilities to provide water handling resources, with a focus on proximity to dispatch centers and ability to meet emergency response timelines.
