About this IDV
This Indefinite Delivery Contract, awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center (NICFC) on February 6, 2026, provides vehicle transportation services with drivers in support of Regions 5 and 6 (West Zone) operations through June 8, 2028. The prime contractor, Robert Lowe, doing business as American Water And Support, is a small disadvantaged, veteran-owned sole proprietorship based in Redding, California, with extensive experience supporting federal land management agencies in wildland fire response and forest management operations. The contract carries a ceiling value of $250,000 and operates as a firm fixed-price, total small business set-aside, multiple-award vehicle. This IDC enables the contractor to provide trained personnel and equipped vehicles for emergency response needs across the designated regions, with potential optional use by other federal agencies including the Department of the Interior and National Park Service.
The original solicitation, posted as a pre-solicitation opportunity on February 15, 2023, with a due date of March 31, 2023, sought specialized transportation and driver support services for federal emergency operations. Robert Lowe's award reflects the contractor's established track record delivering similar services through prior Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the U.S. Forest Service, Pacific Southwest Region, which have demonstrated consistent capability in supporting wildland fire suppression and all-hazards incident response. The firm fixed-price structure and the contractor's strategic positioning as a small disadvantaged, veteran-owned business within the emergency response support services sector align with federal procurement preferences while ensuring availability of critical transportation assets for land management agency operations during fire seasons and emergency situations.
