About this IDV
Thunder Mountain Catering Inc., a veteran-owned small business based in Boise, Idaho, was awarded a Total Small Business multiple-award Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract by the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center on July 1, 2025, with a ceiling value of $45,000,000 and an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2029. The contract was solicited as a Pre-Solicitation notice posted February 6, 2025, under a two-phase evaluation process designed to establish multiple contractors capable of providing commercial, performance-based national mobile food service unit support. The parent IDIQ contract establishes the contractual framework for delivery orders that support fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and severity/preparedness assignments across the western United States, with pricing structured as fixed-price delivery orders featuring economic price adjustment provisions. No set-aside designation is applied to individual delivery orders issued under this parent contract, allowing Thunder Mountain Catering to compete directly with other approved contractors through the fair opportunity process.
The scope of work encompasses the design, preparation, and delivery of appetizing, nutritional, and well-balanced hot and cold meals for incident personnel operating in challenging environments ranging from urban areas to remote primitive locations, with complete meal preparation occurring directly at incident sites. The contract requires Thunder Mountain Catering to provide all necessary equipment, supervision, labor, materials, and supplies to support federal personnel engaged in wildland firefighting and emergency response operations. Since the award date of July 1, 2025, the company has received ten delivery orders across multiple Forest Service regions—including Region 3 (Southwestern), Region 4 (Intermountain), and Region 5 (Pacific Southwest)—with individual task order values ranging from approximately $35,692 to $3,979,174 and performance locations spanning Arizona, California, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. These task orders, awarded between July 9 and September 10, 2025, demonstrate the contract's operational application in rapidly deploying mobile food service capabilities to support critical incident management activities during the 2025 wildfire season and beyond.
