About this IDV

John J Ricker, doing business as J R Backhoe, holds a $250,000 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract awarded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service on June 10, 2023, with a period of performance extending through June 10, 2028. The contract was awarded as a total small business set-aside under the Virtual Incident Procurement system for heavy equipment rental services supporting wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response activities in Forest Service Regions 5 and 6, which encompass California, Hawaii, and the Pacific Islands. As a sole proprietorship specializing in heavy equipment rental services, J R Backhoe provides specialized equipment such as dozers and excavators to support emergency response and forestry operations. The firm fixed price pricing structure allows for the issuance of delivery orders with predetermined pricing, enabling rapid equipment deployment during critical fire suppression and incident response operations.

Three delivery orders have been issued under this indefinite delivery vehicle, demonstrating active utilization of the contract for emergency support operations. These delivery orders were valued at $57,200.00 (performance location: Solvang, California; completion date July 13, 2025), $56,285.50 (performance location: San Bernardino, California; completion date September 21, 2024), and $38,381.10 (performance location: Solvang, California; completion date August 1, 2024), for a combined total of $151,866.60. The delivery orders were issued without small business set-aside restrictions, allowing the Forest Service to leverage J R Backhoe's established equipment rental capabilities for time-sensitive wildland fire suppression and incident response requirements across the Pacific Southwest and Hawaii regions. The contract's structure enables the Forest Service to access pre-negotiated rates and equipment availability while maintaining operational flexibility to respond to varying emergency demands.
