The contract, funded by the National Interagency Fire Center and set aside for total small business participation, procures miscellaneous heavy equipment and wildland fire management services for the U.S. Forest Service Regions 3 and 8 East Zone.

The contract enables Fuego to provide rapid equipment deployment capabilities to support the Forest Service's Fire and Aviation Management program across the target regions, with provisions allowing optional use by authorized interagency partners.
