Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SC21T2451

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service has awarded Wyeast Forestry LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business, a multiple award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) worth up to $1.5 million to provide Type 2 wildland firefighter crews nationwide through May 2026. Under this total small business set-aside IDC, the Forest Service has issued multiple delivery orders totaling over $1.4 million for Wyeast Forestry to furnish forestry services such as wildland fire management, forest operations support, and land stewardship activities across regions including the Pacific Northwest, Intermountain, Pacific Southwest, and Northern. Wyeast Forestry also holds a separate $250,000 small business set-aside IDC with the Forest Service to provide emergency medical technicians for wildfire incidents in the Pacific Northwest region. Through these contract vehicles, Wyeast Forestry has demonstrated its expertise in delivering specialized forestry services, primarily to support the Forest Service's national forest management, wildfire suppression, and land conservation initiatives.

The original solicitation was a pre-solicitation notice for the USDA Forest Service to obtain quotes for Type 2, 20-person firefighter crews for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incidents under a total small business set-aside. The agency anticipated awarding multiple firm-fixed price blanket purchase agreements with pricing valid for the first year, and then re-soliciting annually to allow new contractors the opportunity to be awarded. The total period of performance for this requirement was not to exceed 5 years from the original award date in May 2021.
