Apache-Sitgreaves NF Aggregate Supply IDIQ 2017-2019

The USDA Forest Service, Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests (Region 3–Southwestern Region) established a multiple-award IDIQ for aggregate supply within 150 miles of Springerville, Arizona, with a last date to order of December 31, 2019—the vehicle is closed to new ordering. Ordering ceased over six years ago, and all combined potential value of $920 thousand has been obligated; this vehicle is no longer active.

The 12 task orders awarded between May 2017 and June 2018 contracted crushed and stockpile aggregate for national forest road maintenance, presale operations, and forest restoration projects including the Four-Forest Restoration Initiative (4FRI). Work is performed within the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests service area in Arizona.

Competition concentrated among six primes. Hatch Construction & Paving Inc. and Perkins Cinders, Inc. dominate, holding three and four orders respectively and capturing $387 thousand and $369 thousand in combined potential value. SUG Rogers Construction, LLC, Alpine Excavation and Construction Company, and two smaller firms (Tonto Rock Products LLC and Brimhall Sand Rock & Building Materials) hold the remaining three orders. The customer base consists solely of the Apache-Sitgreaves contracting office; no other federal agencies placed orders under this vehicle.

Set-aside distribution shows two-thirds of orders (67 percent) were unrestricted, with one-third (33 percent) designated Total Small Business. Task orders ranged from $5 thousand to $231 thousand, with typical values in the $35,000 to $150,000 range and all firm fixed-price structures. Order completions generally fell between December 2019 and October 2020. Annual ordering activity was modest—seven orders in 2017 and five in 2018—reflecting the small, localized nature of the requirement. No successor vehicle is referenced in the source material.
