About this IDV
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract for water handling services to Outback Firefighting, Inc., a small business, on February 6, 2026, under a total small business set-aside with a contract ceiling of $500,000. This is one of multiple awards under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) program.
Work supports wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response for Forest Service Regions 3 and 8, covering equipment, trained personnel, transportation, and logistical resources. Place of performance spans both regions with dispatch-center proximity as a selection criterion.
The originating solicitation sought water handling services through VIPR Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements, with vendor evaluation based on capabilities to provide water handling resources and ability to meet emergency response timelines within up to 16-hour daily shifts. Rates and payments are determined annually, with the Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management Regional Program Office conducting periodic reviews for potential resource additions.
Period of performance extends through May 6, 2030. The contract is firm fixed price. NAICS 561730 (Support Activities for Forestry) applies.
Task-order activity under this IDIQ reflects typical wildfire suppression logistics: delivery orders for water trucks, potable and gray water variants with handwashing stations, temporary shelter systems, and trained firefighting crews. Individual task orders typically carry completion dates of 7–90 days, reflecting emergency dispatch urgency, with values ranging from approximately $4,700 to $662,000. Recent 2025 task orders drawn across regions total up to $495,839 for water handling resources and similar amounts for suppression equipment and personnel deployment.
