About this IDV
The key points of this federal contract IDV award are:
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 to provide water handling services to support wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work. The contract is set aside for total small businesses and utilizes the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system. The prime contractor, Cahoon, Francis C, is a sole proprietorship based in Montana and California that specializes in providing specialized vehicles, equipment, and services to federal agencies for wildland fire and emergency response operations. Cahoon, Francis C has been awarded multiple prior contracts for firefighting equipment delivery. This specific IDC will allow the contractor to provide equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and trained personnel to meet the government's emergency response needs across the designated regions on an on-call basis over the 5-year contract period from 2025 to 2030.
The original contract opportunity was a pre-solicitation issued by the USFS for water handling resources and personnel to support fire, all-hazard, and prescribed work across the East Zone. It was designated as a total small business set-aside, with the agency reserving the right to annually review and potentially add new contractors during the contract period. 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 also allows for optional use by other federal land management agencies like the Department of Interior.
