3B's Forestry, Incorporated

3B's Forestry, Incorporated, doing business as 3B's Forestry, is a small disadvantaged, Hispanic American-owned forestry and land management contractor based in Medford, Oregon that operates exclusively as a prime contractor on federal fuels reduction, vegetation management, and wildland firefighting support work. The company is a Subchapter S corporation competing across a mix of full-and-open and small-business set-aside vehicles, with 599 prime awards and no subcontract activity in the source record.

The vendor's capability footprint centers on manual hazardous fuel reduction, timber stand improvement, hand thinning, lopping and scattering, prescribed burning, reforestation, and water handling and chipper equipment provision for wildland fire suppression across western federal lands. Representative work includes a $49.999 million single-award IDIQ with the USDA Forest Service Region 3 (Southwestern Region) for fuels treatment and vegetation management through April 2031, awarded April 13, 2026 under total small business set-aside; a $140 million multiple-award IDIQ with the Bureau of Land Management for East Oregon manual hazardous fuel reduction through September 2027; a $110 million multiple-award IDIQ for Southwest Oregon manual hazardous fuel reduction through September 2027; and a $1.223 million delivery order with Forest Service Region 4 for hand thinning, lopping, and scattering at Fishlake National Forest, awarded September 2023 with completion in October 2024.

Customer concentration is extreme and concentrated in two federal agencies. The Bureau of Land Management National Office dominates by potential value, commanding 16 awards worth $531 million combined potential value (82% of portfolio dollars), whereas the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission leads by award count at 130 awards but with minimal individual values. The Forest Service comes second by dollars, with the Region 3 (Southwestern) account anchoring $50.2 million via the recently awarded R3 IDIQ. Forest Service Region 1 (Northern Region) and Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) combined hold 107 awards worth $32.3 million. Award volume has declined sharply—40 awards in 2022 down to 6 in 2026 through early July—reflecting the consolidation of the vendor's portfolio into larger IDIQs rather than smaller task orders.

3B's Forestry holds a substantial parent-vehicle footprint dominated by BLM multiple-award IDIQs for hazardous fuel reduction across Oregon, Washington, and Central Oregon geographies (collectively carrying ceilings of $355 million through September 2027), plus Forest Service indefinite delivery vehicles across Regions 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 for forestry and vegetation management services. The vendor also places task orders under small-business set-aside National Interagency Fire Center indefinite delivery contracts for water handling ($250,000 ceiling awarded February 2026, May 2025, May 2024, and June 2022 to Regions 3–10) and chipper equipment and crews ($250,000 ceilings awarded February 2026, May 2024). The top five vehicles account for 98 task orders. Geographic scope of performance spans western states including Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, California, and Nevada, with administrative headquarters in Medford, Oregon.

Activity trajectory shows contraction. Awards per year fell from 40 in 2022 to 6 year-to-date in 2026, reflecting a strategic shift toward larger IDIQs with longer performance periods (many extending to 2027–2031) rather than smaller individual delivery orders. A modest recompete cliff faces the vendor: seven awards with ultimate completion dates in the next 24 months carry combined potential value of $339 thousand. SCI-reportable federal service contract activity is minimal—$247 thousand across 4.0 FTEs in FY2023 only, with zero FY2024 reporting—reflecting the vendor's business model of direct government invoicing for field labor and materials under delivery orders and task orders rather than cost-plus or time-and-materials service contracts above the SCI reporting threshold. The hourly-rate posture on SCI records runs wide (10th percentile $10.13/hr, median $50.63/hr, 90th percentile $91.13/hr), consistent with a labor-intensive field-operations model spanning equipment operators, crew leads, and general labor across fluctuating project scales. The vendor has not reported subcontractor hours on SCI records, aligning with the 100% prime-contract posture across the full award portfolio.
