Absolute Forestry LLC

Absolute Forestry LLC, a minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned small business based in Central Point, Oregon, provides vegetation management, hazardous fuels reduction, tree planting, and timber stand improvement services to the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor on 100% of recent awards. The vendor operates as a limited liability company under primary NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry) and competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides across its prime footprint.

Absolute Forestry's customer concentration is heavily weighted to Forest Service regional offices. The top five funding agencies account for 68% of recent awards by count but 95% of combined potential value, led by Forest Service Region 1 (Northern Region) with 18 awards carrying $70 million combined potential value, followed by Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) with 9 awards valued at $56.1 million, Region 5 (Pacific Southwest) with 7 awards valued at $50.3 million, and Region 4 (Intermountain) with 8 awards valued at $2.4 million. Bureau of Land Management Nevada Region places 11 awards valued at $1.6 million. The ranking by potential value is anchored by Absolute Forestry's five single-award stewardship Blanket Purchase Agreements, each valued at $50 million over ten years, issued by Forest Service regional offices covering the Northern Rockies (Regions 1), Intermountain (Region 4), Pacific Northwest (Region 6), and Pacific Southwest (Region 5), plus a $50 million Land Management Integrated Resources National BPA (LMIR) awarded in May 2024 and running through March 2033. Against these parent vehicles, Absolute Forestry places task orders for mechanical thinning, tree removal, hand fuels treatments, mastication, pile burning, tree planting, and ecosystem restoration work.

Recent prime capability work includes a $1.4 million BPA call with Forest Service Region 6 for fuels reduction and vegetation management treatment under the "Lone Rock Fuels Break" project near Heppner, Oregon (awarded September 28, 2026), a $1.7 million BPA call with Region 6 for precommercial and non-commercial thinning across 3,154 acres in the Magone Roundtop Project Area (awarded June 17, 2024), a $600.7 million delivery order with Region 4 for non-commercial thinning in Boise National Forest North Zone through September 2027 (awarded July 10, 2023), and a $1.09 million delivery order with Region 4 for hand thinning on Payette National Forest through September 2025 under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (awarded September 30, 2022). Absolute Forestry also holds an $18.75 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with Regions 1 and 4 for timber stand improvement and hand fuels treatments running through September 2026, a $7.5 million multiple-award tree-planting IDIQ with Region 3 (Southwestern Region) running through March 2031, and an $816.7 thousand single-award tree-planting IDIQ with Region 2 (Rocky Mountain Region) running through February 2030. Additional vehicles include a $2 million BPA with the Malheur National Forest (Region 6) for fuels reduction through August 2033. Work is performed across multiple western locations spanning Oregon, Washington, California, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, and New Mexico.

Activity has grown year over year, with 14 awards in 2023 to 26 awards in 2026, reflecting the accumulation of task orders issued against the large stewardship and LMIR BPAs alongside smaller delivery orders and purchase orders. Combined potential value across all recent awards is $291 million, though only $11.9 million (4% of combined potential value) has been obligated to date, indicating a heavy concentration of future work against multi-year IDV vehicles. Twenty-one awards carrying combined potential value of $6.5 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing recompete exposure primarily on smaller task orders rather than the large anchor vehicles.

Absolute Forestry operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract role in the source data. Service Contract Inventory-reported invoicing totals $721 thousand across FY2023–FY2024, spanning 6.5 FTEs at the contract level, with median government-paid hourly rates around $71.35/hr on federal services contracts captured in SCI. The vendor delivered zero sub-hours as a percentage of total contractor hours, building delivery internally rather than through subcontracts. However, SCI data represent a strict subset of Absolute Forestry's federal services activity — the vendor's true federal revenue footprint is substantially larger given the vendor holds $291 million in combined potential value across firm fixed-price delivery orders and BPA task orders not captured in SCI's $150 thousand reporting threshold.
