Indefinite Delivery Contract 1204H125T7497

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service, Region 6 Pacific Northwest Region, has awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Willow Canyon Trucking LLC, a woman-owned small business, to provide water handling equipment and services for fire suppression and all-hazard incident response. The $250,000 IDC, awarded in June 2022, covers a five-year period through May 2027 and facilitates the procurement of Engines Type 3-6, Support Water Tenders Type 1-3, and Tactical Water Tenders Type 1-2, including equipment, materials, transportation, personnel, and other required support. The contract was originally solicited as a total small business set-aside, with the government anticipating multiple preseason Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) to be awarded through competitive selection. The contract aims to establish a flexible and responsive mechanism for water handling equipment procurement to support wildland fire and emergency incident management across the Pacific Northwest region, with potential for use by other interagency cooperators.

Willow Canyon Trucking LLC has previously been awarded multiple firm fixed price delivery order contracts by the USDA Forest Service to provide specialized trucking and transportation services for wildland fire suppression and natural resource management operations in Oregon and Washington. The company's experience and ability to provide timely and responsive support for these critical mission areas appear to have contributed to its selection for the IDC award.
