About this IDV
The United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to The Hatchet Emergency Response Inc. (UEI: R8QAZL9WN747) for water handling equipment and emergency response services in Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region) under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) I-BPA program. This total small business set-aside contract, valued at $250,000.00, is structured as a firm fixed-price agreement with an ultimate completion date of June 5, 2030. The original pre-solicitation, posted February 4, 2025, sought qualified small business vendors to provide Type 3 and 6 Engines and Support Water Tenders (Types 1, 2, and 3) for fire suppression and all-hazard emergency response operations. Eligible contractors must furnish trained and certified personnel, transportation, and lodging in compliance with comprehensive equipment and personnel requirements, with quotes submitted electronically through the VIPR system. The contract allows for optional usage by interagency partners including the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs, subject to individual agency administrative terms.
Under this Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement framework, The Hatchet Emergency Response Inc. received a delivery order on August 9, 2025, valued at $78,628.17 with performance completion by August 23, 2025, for services performed in Redding, California. This delivery order, awarded without set-aside designation, represents rapid procurement for urgent operational needs within the Pacific Southwest Region and exemplifies how the VIPR I-BPA structure enables expedited access to pre-vetted emergency response resources. The firm fixed-price structure ensures cost predictability for the Forest Service while providing small business contractors with opportunities to support federal fire management and disaster response operations. Annual reviews are conducted to assess the addition of new contractors or resources during the contract performance period, allowing the program to adapt to evolving regional emergency response requirements.
