Delivery Order 12FPC319D0012-12FPC321F0001
This federal contract award to Red Rock Fire LLC is for brush management services on wetland restoration easements managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). The $673,125.00 firm fixed price delivery order contract has a period of performance through September 30, 2024. Red Rock Fire LLC is a self-certified small disadvantaged and woman-owned business that provides wildland fire management and vegetation control services to federal agencies. While this award did not have a set-aside designation, Red Rock Fire's business status likely contributed to its selection.

Delivery Order 12FPC319D0012-12FPC322F0053
This federal contract award to Red Rock Fire LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged and woman-owned business, is for tree removal services on Wetland Reserve Program (WRP) easements in Minnesota. The contract has a ceiling value of $139,663.87 and is a delivery order under a larger indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract. Red Rock Fire LLC has established a track record of providing prescribed burning, brush clearing, tree removal, and other vegetation management services to various federal agencies, including the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), U.S. Forest Service, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The current award allows the company to utilize remaining funds from a previous NRCS contract to continue supporting the agency's land conservation and wildfire mitigation efforts in Minnesota. While this contract does not have a set-aside designation, Red Rock Fire LLC's small disadvantaged and woman-owned business status has likely contributed to its success in securing federal work.

To remain registered in SAM after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis, from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates, its information in SAM to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. (d) (1) (i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name or "doing business as" name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in subpart Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to- (A) Change the name in the SAM; (i) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (d)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
