Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SB26T7338

Fire Trax LLC, a small business based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with a $250,000 ceiling value by the National Interagency Fire Center on February 6, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of May 30, 2030. The contract is structured as a firm fixed price agreement set aside for total small business and covers water handling services across East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9 of the U.S. Forest Service. Under this IDC, Fire Trax LLC provides equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and trained personnel to support wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed project work. The contract is administered through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, which issues firm fixed price task orders against the established ceiling value and enables rapid acquisition of critical firefighting resources for emergency response operations.

The underlying solicitation, posted on February 4, 2025, with quotes due by March 23, 2025, sought qualified vendors capable of delivering comprehensive water handling support across multiple regions within the East Zone. Vendors were required to maintain active System for Award Management (SAM) registration, valid Unique Entity ID numbers, and Login.gov accounts to participate in the competitive procurement. The solicitation anticipated rates accommodating up to 16-hour daily shifts, with payment determined by agreement rates in effect at the time of order issuance. The contract structure allows for optional utilization by interagency cooperators including the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs, enabling broader emergency response capabilities across federal land management agencies. The U.S. Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management Regional Program Office conducts annual reviews to assess potential for adding new contractors or resources during the contract period.
