Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SB26T7530

Blacktimber Wildland Services LLC, a woman-owned small business based in Chino Valley, Arizona, was awarded a $250,000 Indefinite Delivery Contract by the National Interagency Fire Center on February 6, 2026, with performance extending through May 30, 2030. The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and operates as a multiple award vehicle under Firm Fixed Price terms. This Indefinite Delivery Contract specifically covers water handling services for East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9 of the U.S. Forest Service, positioning Blacktimber to provide critical support to federal wildland fire suppression and emergency response operations across these geographic areas.

The contracted scope encompasses the provision of equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and trained personnel to support fire suppression activities, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work. Services are delivered through the Virtual Incident Procurement system via Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements, with vendor rates accommodating up to 16-hour daily operational shifts. The contract allows optional utilization by interagency cooperators including the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs, enabling broader federal use beyond the U.S. Forest Service. Blacktimber's engagement as part of this multiple award vehicle demonstrates the government's strategy to ensure competitive resource availability while maintaining rapid deployment capability for unpredictable wildland fire events across designated regions.
