About this IDV
The U.S. Forest Service (USFS) in the East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9 has awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with a $250,000 ceiling value to provide water handling services, equipment, and personnel to support wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work. The IDC, awarded to small business prime contractor Soco Enterprise Inc., utilizes the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system to competitively issue Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) for water handling resources across the specified regions. Soco Enterprise, a veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned small disadvantaged business, will be required to provide a range of water handling capabilities, including water tenders, engines, and support vehicles, to be deployed as needed to locations in the western United States. The contract has an ultimate completion date of May 30, 2030 and allows for optional use by other federal agencies such as the Department of the Interior. The USFS will periodically review opportunities to add new contractors or resources to the contract.
This IDC was competitively awarded under a total small business set-aside, with the USFS soliciting quotes from vendors capable of meeting emergency water handling requirements. Qualified vendors must have a valid email address, Unique Entity ID (UEI) number, active System for Award Management (SAM) registration, and a Login.gov account to access the VIPR system and submit their quotes. Proposed rates should accommodate up to 16-hour daily shifts, with payment determined by the agreement rates in effect at the time of order placement. The USFS will evaluate vendors based on their ability to provide timely, comprehensive water handling support across multiple regions.
