About this vehicle

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R8-Southern Region established this Master IDIQ on March 15, 2017, for mechanical vegetation management and wildlife protection services across the Ozark-St. Francis and Ouachita National Forests. Ordering closed on March 31, 2019, and the vehicle is no longer active; the most recent task order was issued in June 2021, over five years ago.

The vehicle funded 21 delivery orders totaling $430 thousand in combined potential value, with all obligated funds fully drawn down. Task orders clustered in the first two years of operation—seven awards in 2017 and four each in 2018 and 2019—before declining to three per year in 2020 and 2021. Work scope centered on fireline reconstruction across Big Piney and Pleasant Hill Ranger Districts (59.3 miles, 215 acres of mulching, and multiple road maintenance efforts), food plot rehabilitation and construction on Mt. Magazine Ranger District (hundreds of acres), pond construction and renovation on Boston Mountain and Wedington range units, and warm-season grass plantings. Typical task-order values ranged from $7 thousand to $58 thousand, with most falling between $12 thousand and $45 thousand.

Competition was fragmented among five primes. Freeman David led by potential value with six orders worth $184 thousand combined; Sweat US LLC held five orders totaling $80 thousand; and Helms Cynthia held seven orders (the highest order count) valued at $68 thousand combined. Cloud Mountain Forestry LLC and Southern Resource Management, L.L.C. split the remaining two orders. All funding originated from R8-Southern Region, with no inter-agency ordering.

Eighty-one percent of orders carried no set-aside; small-business set-asides (designated as Total Small Business) accounted for 19 percent of awards. All task orders were firm-fixed-price. Performance occurred across ranger districts in Arkansas, with no geographically centralized work.

The vehicle succeeded a 2016-2020 predecessor vehicle (awarded June 22, 2016) and represents a narrow, completed regional engagement rather than an ongoing procurement vehicle suitable for new business development.
