About this IDV
Lester Enterprises Northstate, Inc. was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with a ceiling value of $250,000 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, through the National Interagency Fire Center, for the provision of chippers and related services in Forest Service Regions 5 and 6 (California, Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington). The contract was established as a total small business set-aside and employs a firm fixed-price pricing structure. Under this vehicle, the contractor is responsible for furnishing all necessary equipment, materials, personnel, transportation, lodging, and certifications required to meet agreement specifications. The contract period extends through May 28, 2029, with an award date of February 6, 2026. The underlying solicitation, posted as a Request for Quotes on January 31, 2024, sought vendor quotes for chipper services and crews to support local, regional, and nationwide fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work, with proposed rates structured on a 16-hour daily shift basis.
The Forest Service's procurement initiative reflects the agency's need for pre-positioned heavy equipment resources to support wildland fire management operations and emergency response activities across the western regions. Lester Enterprises Northstate brings relevant operational experience through prior delivery orders and multiple-award indefinite-delivery contracts with the Forest Service, during which the contractor has provided similar heavy equipment and personnel services for landscape protection and incident support. Contractors responding to this solicitation were required to maintain System for Award Management registration, a Unique Entity ID, and USDA eAuthentication credentials for participation in the Virtual Incident Procurement system. The firm fixed-price structure and total small business set-aside designation reflect the Forest Service's commitment to supporting small disadvantaged businesses while securing cost-certain equipment and services for emergency preparedness and incident response operations.
