Amendment - 1202SB23Q7009 - 0001.pdf

This is a Standard Form 30 Amendment to Solicitation/Modification of Contract issued by the USDA Forest Service, Joseph Perkins Incident Procurement ESB – East Zone (Boise, Idaho). Amendment Number 0001 reopens Solicitation 1202SB23Q7009 for an open season Onboarding period, with vendor quote responses due no later than April 23, 2026 at 5:00 PM MDT. Responses must be submitted through the VIPR NextGen application at https://www.fs.usda.gov/business/solicitations/incidentvendorapp.php.

The original solicitation, issued by USDA Forest Service, supports local, regional, and national fire suppression and all hazard incidents under the Exhibit H – Special Contract Requirements. This amendment reopens the original solicitation to conduct Onboarding in accordance with Exhibit H. Onboarding is not a new procurement but operates under the terms of the original solicitation and is treated as an amendment to that solicitation. The Government will review feedback from award decisions during open season Onboarding using the same evaluation factors and sub-factors as the original solicitation. Any new Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement (IBPA) awards issued through Onboarding will be identical to original awards in terms, conditions, and period of performance. Existing IBPA awardees may revise rates, modify resources, or add new resources during this period, and new Offerors meeting all eligibility requirements may submit quotes for consideration. All proposed resources must meet original solicitation criteria. After Onboarding and annual review/rollover processes are complete, newly awarded Contractors or newly accepted resources will be eligible for dispatch and BPA Calls in accordance with ordering procedures in the agreements. The amendment is effective as of March 18, 2026 at 12:43 PM GMT-05:00 and was signed by Contracting Officer Joseph Perkins on March 18, 2026.
