About this opportunity
The USDA Forest Service, Procurement & Property Services division issued this Special Notice on December 19, 2025, announcing its intent to award competitive BPA Call Orders for Vegetation Management Service (VMS) support. The notice covers two separate requisitions (1161614 for solicitation numbers 12444122R0012 and 12444122R0007), each exceeding the $25,000 threshold that requires synopsis publication. This notice is restricted to small businesses and is not a solicitation itself, but rather notification of the Forest Service's intent to issue competitive call orders against existing multiple award schedule BPAs. The opportunity falls under NAICS code 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC code F099 (Natural Resources/Conservation-Other), with the point of contact being Ioulia Boxley at ioulia.boxley@usda.gov.
The Forest Service seeks vegetation management support services encompassing site preparation through various methods (manual, mechanical, chemical, or combination approaches), tree and shrub planting, stand improvement activities, non-native invasive species treatments, watershed improvements, and wildlife opening creation. Eligible contractors must be pre-approved small businesses currently listed under the existing VMS Blanket Purchase Agreement with the USFS; only 17 businesses meeting these criteria will receive the call order solicitation via email. The competitive call order will be issued to qualified BPA holders, with any modifications communicated through email notification. Contractors should note that while the due date for responses is January 12, 2026, this notice does not constitute a formal request for proposals, and the government will not provide feedback or evaluations on submitted proposals. All BPA-related details and previous solicitation information can be accessed through SAM.gov.
