About this IDV
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a multiple-award IDIQ to Pathfinder Engineering Inc. on February 6, 2026, for heavy equipment task force support in Region 6 (Pacific Northwest), with a contract ceiling of $500,000.00 and ultimate completion date of July 8, 2030. This is a Total Small Business set-aside. Pathfinder Engineering Inc. is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Donnelly, Idaho.
Place of performance is Region 6 of the US Forest Service Pacific Northwest, with equipment and personnel dispatch to incident locations and prescribed project sites throughout the region.
The originating solicitation, posted February 4, 2025, sought to establish multiple Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements for Heavy Equipment Taskforce resources supporting fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed project work. Contractors must provide equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, lodging, and trained personnel; rates are structured around up to 16-hour daily shifts. The USFS anticipates awarding multiple I-BPAs competitively within available regional dispatch centers, with dispatch center location influencing award selection to ensure timely and cost-effective response. Annual reviews may add new contractors or resources during the contract period. Optional use by interagency cooperators including the National Park Service and Bureau of Indian Affairs is permitted subject to administrative terms.
The contract operates on a firm fixed price basis. Pathfinder competes exclusively under Total Small Business set-asides and maintains a geographically dispersed portfolio of regional equipment contracts across Forest Service regions, with heavy equipment including dozers, excavators, water tenders, skidders, masticators, and road graders, supported by trained operators and maintenance services.
