Indefinite Delivery Contract 1204H126T7797

Valley Timber Resource, Inc., an SBA-certified HUBZone small business located in Cave Junction, Oregon, was awarded a Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the National Interagency Fire Center on February 6, 2026, for the procurement of miscellaneous heavy equipment serving Region 6 of the Pacific Northwest. The contract carries a ceiling value of $250,000 and extends through May 29, 2029, under a firm fixed price arrangement with a total small business set-aside. The equipment and services are designated to support wildland fire suppression, prescribed project work, and forest management initiatives conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service. Valley Timber Resource, Inc.'s historical delivery of heavy equipment—including excavators, dozers, chippers, masticators, dump trucks, and front-end loaders—positions the contractor to fulfill anticipated equipment rental requirements under this blanket purchase agreement structure.

The solicitation, posted on February 1, 2024, sought multiple-award blanket purchase agreements exclusively from small business contractors through the Virtual Incident Procurement system to establish on-demand access to critical equipment assets for wildland firefighting and all-hazard incident response in the Pacific Northwest region. Evaluation criteria emphasized hourly rental rates based on 16-hour daily shifts, technical qualifications including equipment documentation, and socioeconomic status considerations. The Forest Service structured the procurement to award contractors positioned within advertised dispatch centers closest to their operational resources to ensure reasonable response times for emergency and non-emergency forest management operations. Contractors were required to assume responsibility for equipment provisioning, personnel deployment, and any requisite training and certifications aligned with federal wildland fire suppression standards.
