The Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service's Northern Region awarded a single-award, indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract to Forest Access, a for-profit small business, to provide vegetation data collection services in support of natural resource management and scientific research across national forests in Montana, northern Idaho, and northwest South Dakota. The five-year, $2 million "Region 1 Data Collection IDIQ" contract has a base term through 2024 with options to extend through January 2026. Task orders issued under the IDIQ so far total over $200,000 and cover common stand exams, vegetation surveys, old growth forest determinations, and timber stand improvement services. The work is funded through both base agency programs and supplemental infrastructure legislation like the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). The IDIQ was set aside for small businesses, while some individual task orders do not have set-aside requirements. The contracted services help the Forest Service fulfill its mission to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the nation's forests and grasslands.
