This is one of multiple awards issued under the same program.
The contract covers water handling for fire suppression and all-hazard incident support in Forest Service Regions 3 and 8. Work includes equipment, personnel, transportation, and logistical resources for wildland fire protection, emergency response, and prescribed project work, performed at dispatch centers and incident locations within those regions.
The originating procurement was a Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement solicitation posted February 4, 2025, with a due date of March 10, 2025. The government evaluated vendor quotes based on capabilities to provide water handling resources, with emphasis on proximity to dispatch centers and ability to meet emergency response timelines. Rates were proposed based on up to 16-hour daily shifts, subject to annual review and potential adjustment.
The contract runs firm fixed-price on a multiple-award basis. Recent delivery-order activity under comparable NIFC vehicles held by the awardee includes a $124,700 order from the Pacific Southwest Region in August 2025 for fire suppression and emergency response at Clovis, California, and a $60,200 order from the Southwestern Region in June 2026 for wildland fire suppression work.
The awardee is a small business sole proprietorship based in Mt. Baldy, California, operating exclusively under total small business set-asides with the USDA Forest Service.
