About this IDV
The federal agency, the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) Region 5, has awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at up to $250,000 each to support wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed project work across federal lands. The contract, designated as VIPR I-BPAs (Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements), is set aside for small businesses and seeks to procure miscellaneous heavy equipment such as feller bunchers, mulchers, masticators, road graders, and skidders, along with certified operators. The prime contractor, Backwoods Equipment, Inc., is a veteran-owned small business located in Gerber, California, that specializes in providing heavy equipment rental and operational services to federal land management agencies, primarily supporting forestry management and wildfire prevention activities in Regions 5 and 6.
The original solicitation was a pre-solicitation for the USFS Region 5 to award multiple blanket purchase agreements for the specified heavy equipment and operator services. The agreements will provide resources to support fire suppression and incident work on a daily shift basis for up to 16 hours as needed annually by the Forest Service and cooperating agencies. Vendors must have the required equipment, personnel, training, and certification to meet the agreement specifications, and will be competitively awarded based on their ability to provide resources closest to dispatch centers to ensure timely emergency incident support.
