Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SB26T8988

Southwest Sawyers, a small business contractor based in Hesperus, Colorado, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $250,000 by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), a civilian agency under the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The contract, awarded on February 6, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of June 12, 2028, is structured as a firm fixed price agreement under a total small business set-aside. The contract scope encompasses faller services for fire suppression and all-hazard incident response operations across Regions 1, 2, and 4 of the East Zone, which includes forestry and vegetation management support critical to wildland fire mitigation and emergency response operations.

The contract authorizes multiple delivery orders under an indefinite delivery vehicle structure, enabling the federal government to issue task orders for tree felling, hazardous tree removal, vegetation clearing, and associated forestry management services as operational needs arise. Southwest Sawyers' selection reflects their demonstrated expertise in complex vegetation management and hazardous tree removal projects across diverse federal lands, including national forests and parks. The solicitation, posted on February 15, 2023, as a pre-solicitation notice with a due date of March 31, 2023, attracted competition under the small business set-aside program, underscoring the federal government's commitment to supporting small business participation in critical land management and emergency response services.
