The federal contract IDV award is for an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to provide water handling equipment for fire suppression and all-hazard incident response in the U.S. Forest Service's Region 6 - Pacific Northwest Region. The contract, with a ceiling value of $250,000.00, was awarded to Bolder Operations LLC, a small disadvantaged business, on May 29, 2025 for a period of performance up to May 29, 2030. The procurement includes engines, support water tenders, and tactical water tenders to support wildland fire, prescribed project work, and potential interagency cooperative efforts across the Pacific Northwest region. The contract was competitively awarded under a total small business set-aside, with the government anticipating multiple preseason Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system. Vendors must have a valid email address, UEI number, active SAM registration, and a Login.gov account to participate. Proposed rates are based on up to 16-hour daily shifts, with payment determined by the rates specified in the agreement at the time of order. Dispatch centers will be regionally based, and vendors are encouraged to select the dispatch center closest to their resource location.
