4X4 Fire Services LLC

4X4 Fire Services LLC, a small business limited liability company based in Arlee, Montana, provides wildland fire suppression equipment, mechanic services, and trained personnel to the USDA Forest Service and other federal land management agencies as a prime contractor, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides through the Forest Service's Virtual Incident Procurement system.

The vendor's customer base is heavily concentrated within the Department of Agriculture. The top two funding entities account for 100% of recent awards: the National Interagency Fire Center (6 awards, $1.8 million combined potential value) and the Forest Service Region 1—Northern Region (9 awards, $230 thousand combined potential value), with a smaller engagement from the Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs (1 award, $20 thousand). This concentration reflects a specialized regional focus; the vendor operates across Forest Service East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9, with optional use authorized for National Park Service and Bureau of Indian Affairs, but actual awards cluster in Montana operations.

4X4 Fire Services holds three active indefinite delivery contracts awarded through the National Interagency Fire Center, all under total small business set-asides with firm fixed-price terms. A mechanic-services IDC awarded June 8, 2023 (ceiling $250,000, completion June 8, 2028) has generated approximately $140,298 in task orders to date; a successor mechanic IDC awarded August 4, 2026 (ceiling $250,000, completion August 5, 2031) covers Regions 1, 2, and 4. A water-handling IDC awarded February 6, 2026 (ceiling $500,000, completion May 30, 2030) covers Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9. A predecessor water-handling IDC (May 31, 2022, ceiling $250,000, completion May 2025) has expired from operational status. Recent delivery orders show firm fixed-price task orders ranging from $6,250 to $50,547.50, with performance in Montana communities including Dillon, Kalispell, Libby, Missoula, and Helena. Representative awards include a $42,000 wildland fire management delivery order issued July 17, 2026, a $36,024 water-handling equipment delivery order issued August 9, 2026, and a $50,547.50 mechanic-services delivery order issued August 21, 2025.

Activity has grown from one award in 2022 to six awards in 2026. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no subcontract footprint appears in the source data. NAICS concentration centers on General Automotive Repair (9 awards) and Support Activities for Forestry (7 awards), with PSC coding dominated by Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (16 of 17 awards). Combined potential value across all awards is $2 million, with $293 thousand obligated to date, representing 14% utilization of available contract ceiling.
