Indefinite Delivery Contract 1204H126T7796

Gorge Twin Peaks Construction, Inc., a small business contractor based in Carson, Washington, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) on February 6, 2026, with a $250,000 ceiling value and a firm fixed-price structure. The contract is set aside for total small business participation and extends through May 29, 2029, supporting wildland fire suppression and prescribed project work in Region 6 (Pacific Northwest). The contract delivers miscellaneous heavy equipment and related services, including specialized machinery such as dozers, excavators, and other equipment with water capabilities, along with equipment operators and certified personnel. All equipment, personnel, training, and certifications remain the contractor's responsibility. The geographic scope of performance encompasses the Pacific Northwest region, with equipment positioned to meet response time requirements for incident dispatch.

The underlying solicitation, posted February 1, 2024, sought to establish multiple blanket purchase agreements through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system to provide on-demand access to heavy equipment and personnel for rapid deployment during wildfire emergencies and land management projects. The solicitation emphasized evaluation criteria including hourly rates based on 16-hour daily shifts, technical evaluations supported by photographic documentation of equipment, and socioeconomic status considerations. Proposals were evaluated for their ability to reasonably meet response time requirements from advertised dispatch centers, with rates required to encompass all associated costs. This multiple-award structure enables the U.S. Forest Service to maintain flexible, rapid-response capacity across the Pacific Northwest during emergency situations and hazardous fuels reduction activities.
