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) to provide water handling services to support fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work. The contract, known as the VIPR I-BPA for Water Handling, has a ceiling value of $250,000.00 and a period of performance through May 30, 2030. This total small business set-aside IDC will utilize the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system to competitively award Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) to qualified vendors capable of providing equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and trained personnel to meet the USFS's emergency response needs across the designated regions. The USFS anticipates annually reviewing the potential to add new contractors or resources during the contract period, with proposed rates accommodating up to 16-hour daily shifts and payment determined by the agreement rates in effect at the time of order. The contract also allows for optional use by other interagency cooperators, such as the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs.
The original solicitation specified that vendors must meet several key qualifications, including having a valid email address, Unique Entity ID (UEI) number, active System for Award Management (SAM) registration, and a Login.gov account. Vendors are expected to select the dispatch center closest to their resource location to ensure efficient and cost-effective emergency response capabilities, as wildland fire support locations are unpredictable and may require rapid deployment.
