Aberasturi John

Aberasturi John, operating as Ultimate Off Road, is a small business sole proprietorship based in Mountain City, Nevada, that provides wildfire suppression, emergency response, and equipment support services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a 100% prime contractor under Total Small Business set-asides. The vendor operates entirely within the federal wildland firefighting and incident response ecosystem, competing exclusively under small business set-asides across all contract vehicles and task orders.

Ultimate Off Road's customer concentration is highly concentrated within USDA Forest Service organizational units. The top five funding entities account for 79% of recent awards, anchored by the National Interagency Fire Center (12 awards, $2.6 million combined potential value) and the Forest Service Research Service Rocky Mountain Research Station (17 awards, $1.2 million combined potential value). The vendor also holds awards from the Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions (10 awards, $345 thousand), the Intermountain Region (3 awards, $121 thousand), and the main Forest Service office (2 awards, $154 thousand). The dollar-value ranking diverges slightly from award-count rankings; the National Interagency Fire Center anchors most potential value despite placing fewer individual awards than the Rocky Mountain Research Station.

Ultimate Off Road holds six indefinite delivery contracts valued at $250,000 to $500,000 each through the National Interagency Fire Center's Virtual Incident Procurement system, all designated Total Small Business set-asides and covering East Zone regions (Forest Service Regions 1, 2, 4, 8, and 9). The contracts span mechanic services with service truck support, heavy equipment provision, and water handling services with personnel, all running through 2028–2031. These IDCs generate task orders across nine blanket purchase agreements and indefinite delivery contracts, with the top two vehicles (BPA AG84M8B137128 and BPA AG84M8B167010) combining for 18 task orders at $480 thousand in potential value. Representative delivery orders include a $78.7 thousand firm fixed-price order from Forest Service Region 4 in July 2025 for emergency response support in Venice, Utah; a $25.8 thousand Total Small Business order from Region 3 (Southwestern Region) in July 2026 for Flagstaff, Arizona operations; and a $32.9 thousand purchase order through the VIPR system from the Idaho Region in June 2025 for the Cottonwood Peak Fire project.

Ultimate Off Road's capability portfolio centers on Type 3 water tenders, fire engines, water handling equipment, mechanical maintenance and repair services, and trained personnel capable of supporting up to 16-hour daily shifts in wildfire suppression and all-hazard incident response. The vendor is categorized under NAICS 541711 (Support Activities for Forestry), which accounts for 45 of 56 awards, and PSC Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression, representing 47 of 56 awards. Activity has been episodic rather than linear—two awards in 2021, three in 2022, one in 2023, three in 2025, and six in 2026 year-to-date—with no awards recorded in 2024. All six prime IDCs awarded in 2026 (the most recent award from August 4) face ultimate completion in 2028–2031, creating significant multi-year recompete exposure tied to National Interagency Fire Center renewal cycles rather than near-term cliff risk within twenty-four months.
