About this IDV
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Bison Contracting, LLC on February 6, 2026, with a ceiling value of $500,000 to supply heavy equipment for wildland fire suppression and prescribed fire operations across West Zone Regions 5 and 6. The contract is set aside for Total Small Business.
Bison Contracting is a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Sheridan, Oregon. Work is performed across West Zone Regions 5 and 6 under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, with the Forest Service retaining authority to conduct annual on-ramping to add additional contractors.
The originating solicitation sought heavy equipment (dozers and excavators) for regional fire suppression operations. The contract runs through June 3, 2030 on a firm fixed-price basis structured around 16-hour daily shift costs, with the contractor responsible for equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, lodging, trained and certified personnel, and supervision.
This is one of multiple awards under the same West Zone regions procurement. Bison holds four active multiple-award indefinite-delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center, all awarded between May 2025 and February 2026, with combined potential value of $1 million directed entirely to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service's Fire and Aviation Management division.
