JC Orozco Reforestation Inc., a minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned small business based in Sheridan, Oregon, was awarded a $250,000 Indefinite Delivery Contract on February 6, 2026, by the National Interagency Fire Center for water handling services supporting the Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Region. The contract is structured as a multiple-award, total small business set-aside vehicle with a firm fixed price contracting mechanism and an ultimate completion date of May 29, 2030. Under this Indefinite Delivery Contract, JC Orozco Reforestation Inc. is authorized to provide water handling equipment for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response operations, including Engines Type 3, 4, 5, and 6; Support Water Tenders Type 1, 2, and 3; and Tactical Water Tenders Type 1 and 2. The contractor is responsible for supplying equipment, materials, transportation, and personnel necessary to meet agreement specifications and support emergency incident response, prescribed project work, and interagency cooperative efforts across the region.

The underlying solicitation, posted on February 4, 2025, sought small business contractors to compete for multiple preseason Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements through the Virtual Incident Procurement system, with quotes due by March 21, 2025. Vendors were required to establish proposed rates based on up to 16-hour daily shifts, with final payment determined by rates specified in executed task orders at the time of dispatch. The Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management Regional Program Office committed to conducting annual reviews to evaluate the addition of new contractors or resources to the pool. Dispatch operations are managed through regionally based centers, with vendors encouraged to select dispatch centers aligned with their resource locations to optimize response times and value delivery. This contract mechanism enables the Forest Service to maintain flexible and responsive procurement capability for critical water handling equipment necessary for wildland fire management and emergency incident response across the Pacific Northwest Region.
