About this IDV

This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), a component of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), to Welch Bros LLC, a small disadvantaged business located in Lewiston, Idaho. The IDC, valued at a ceiling of $250,000, is for the provision of Heavy Equipment Task Force (HETF) services in USFS Regions 1 and 4, supporting fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work. The contract was competitively awarded under a total small business set-aside, with the USFS anticipating multiple I-BPA awards across available regional dispatch centers. Welch Bros LLC is required to provide equipment, materials, transportation, lodging, and trained/certified personnel to meet the agreement specifications. The contract has an ultimate completion date of May 20, 2030.

The original solicitation, issued through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, sought quotes from small businesses to establish an Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement (I-BPA) for the HETF services. Evaluation considered socioeconomic status advantages and the ability to meet emergency incident support requirements. Proposed rates were to accommodate up to 16-hour daily shifts, with payment determined by the agreement rates in effect at the time of order. The contract allows optional use by interagency cooperators such as the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs.
