About this IDV
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Franklin-Owens, Don Jesse on February 6, 2026, with a ceiling of $500,000 and a total small business set-aside designation.
Place of performance covers Regions 3 and 8, with services supporting wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response across the specified geographic areas. The contract procures water handling equipment, personnel, transportation, and logistical resources necessary for fire suppression, emergency response, and prescribed project work. Performance is governed by firm fixed-price delivery orders issued through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, with rates based on up to 16-hour daily shifts and subject to annual review and adjustment by the Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management Regional Program Office.
The period of performance extends through May 6, 2030. The contract enables rapid procurement of critical water handling resources during emergency responses, with optional use available to interagency cooperators including the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs. Vendor selection prioritizes proximity to dispatch centers to ensure timely response capability. The sourcing process designated the procurement as a total small business set-aside through the VIPR Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement framework, with the government anticipating multiple awards across Regions 3 and 8 to ensure ongoing competition and flexibility in contractor availability.
