About this opportunity
The USDA Forest Service issued a notice of intent to restrict competition for repair services on a skid steer supporting wildfire suppression and emergency response operations, with responses due by September 22, 2026. The equipment is currently dismantled and undergoing diagnostic evaluation at Western States CAT in Fruitland, Idaho. The Forest Service intends to sole-source the work to Western States CAT to avoid additional transportation costs, delay, and redundant diagnostic effort that would result from relocating the dismantled equipment to an alternative facility. The agency seeks repair as soon as practicable to minimize mission disruption. Interested sources that believe they can meet the requirement may submit a capability statement to karen.weaver@usda.gov by the response deadline. This notice is not a solicitation or request for quotations.
Notice text
It is the Government’s intent to restrict competition for repair services for a USDA Forest Service-owned skid steer supporting wildfire suppression, fire and fuels work, terrain management, and emergency response operations. The skid steer is currently dismantled and inoperable at the Western States CAT facility in Fruitland, Idaho, where it is undergoing diagnostic evaluation. Restricting competition to the vendor currently in possession of the equipment will avoid the additional transportation, cost, delay, and duplication of diagnostic work associated with relocating the dismantled equipment to another repair facility. Repair services are required as soon as practicable to minimize disruption to Forest Service mission operations.
The anticipated source is Western States CAT, 500 East Overland, Meridian, Idaho.
Interested sources that believe they can meet the Government’s requirement should submit a capability statement to karen.weaver@usda.gov by the response deadline.
