About this IDV

This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), a civilian agency under the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to ECM Distributing, LLC, a small business contractor. The $250,000 five-year IDC, awarded under a total small business set-aside, is for the provision of water handling equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and trained personnel to support wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work across USFS Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9. The contract utilizes the USFS's Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system to competitively award multiple Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) for these water handling resources and services. The solicitation sought vendors capable of rapidly deploying and supporting emergency response operations, with proposed rates based on up to 16-hour daily shifts. The contract allows for optional use by other federal land management agencies like the Department of the Interior and National Park Service.

The original solicitation was issued as a pre-solicitation notice, indicating the USFS's intent to competitively award multiple I-BPA contracts under a total small business set-aside. The contract aims to establish a pool of qualified small business vendors that can provide critical water handling support across a broad geographic area, enabling the USFS and its interagency partners to efficiently respond to wildland fires and other emergencies within Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9. The five-year IDC period of performance runs from May 30, 2025 to May 30, 2030.
