About this IDV
Welch Bros LLC, a small disadvantaged business based in Lewiston, Idaho, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $250,000 by the National Interagency Fire Center on May 21, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of May 21, 2030. This Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement (I-BPA) is designated as a total small business set-aside and operates under a firm fixed price structure through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system. The contract provides heavy equipment with water resources for Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9 in the East Zone, supporting fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work conducted by the U.S. Forest Service and cooperating federal agencies including the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs.
Under this contract vehicle, Welch Bros LLC will furnish heavy equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, lodging, and personnel necessary to meet agreement specifications, with proposed rates based on up to 16-hour daily shifts. The scope of services encompasses equipment provision such as excavators, feller bunchers, water tenders, masticators, and other heavy equipment critical to wildland firefighting and forest management operations. Performance locations span the specified Forest Service regions across the northern and intermountain western states. The I-BPA structure enables flexible, on-demand deployment of resources in response to emergency incidents and stewardship projects, with annual reviews by the Forest Service's Fire and Aviation Management Regional Program Office to assess performance and determine potential additions to the contractor roster. Contractor dispatch from locations nearest to incident sites ensures timely resource mobilization for federal land management and emergency response operations.
