Forrest Seibold

Forrest Seibold, doing business as Alaska Wildland Support, a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Delta Junction, Alaska, provides wildland fire support services to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor across delivery orders and indefinite delivery contracts. The vendor competes exclusively under total small business set-asides and non-set-aside full-and-open delivery orders placed against regional and national Forest Service IDIQ vehicles; 211 recent prime awards show 100% prime posture with no subcontract work.

Alaska Wildland Support's capability portfolio centers on wildland fire suppression, water handling, and incident response. The company furnishes wildland fire engines (Type 3, 4, 5, and 6), water tenders (Type 1, 2, and 3), tactical water tenders, personnel, equipment, vehicles, and logistics support across Forest Service Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10 in the western United States. Recent representative awards include a $257,277 delivery order from USDA Forest Service Region 6 (July 31, 2026) for wildland fire support in Wenatchee, Washington; a $329,939 delivery order from Region 6 (July 18, 2025) for comprehensive fire support including water handling in Medford, Oregon; and a $191,420 delivery order from Region 6 (August 1, 2026) for personnel, equipment, and vehicles in Medford.

Customer concentration is severe and non-diversified. The top five Forest Service regional and national customers account for 94 percent of awards by count and 97 percent of combined potential value. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) dominates, placing 134 awards worth $6.7 million combined potential value—representing 63 percent of all awards and 65 percent of all dollar volume. The Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center (a Forest Service program) accounts for 37 awards worth $2 million, and Region 5 (Pacific Southwest) places 16 awards worth $850 thousand. All remaining customer agencies—Research Service Rocky Mountain Research Station, general Forest Service programs, and other interior and commerce agencies—collectively represent single-digit award counts.

The vendor holds position on three primary parent vehicles. Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SB22T7797 carries 62 task orders worth $3.3 million in combined potential value. Blanket Purchase Agreement AG04H1B167474 carries 51 task orders worth $1.2 million. Indefinite Delivery Contract 1204H119T7114 carries 47 task orders worth $1.4 million. A fourth vehicle, Indefinite Delivery Contract 1204H125T7249, carries 10 task orders worth $1.6 million. The National Interagency Fire Center awarded two IDIQs on February 6, 2026 and May 29, 2025, each designated total small business set-asides, with ceilings of $500,000 and $250,000 respectively, running through May 29, 2030 and supporting water handling and wildland fire suppression across Region 6.

Activity has remained flat over the past three years, averaging 21 awards annually in 2022, 2023, and 2024, with a notable drop to 7 awards in 2025 and recovery to 9 awards in 2026 year-to-date. Combined potential value across all 211 awards totals $10.3 million, with $8.5 million obligated (82 percent of potential value). No recompete cliff data is present in the source, but the flat award trajectory and regional concentration create competitive vulnerability if Forest Service Region 6's incident response or water-handling procurement recompetes or consolidates among larger multi-region incumbents.

The vendor's footprint is entirely within one agency and one mission set—USDA Forest Service wildland fire suppression and water handling—across delivery order and IDIQ vehicles designated for small business. The business depends on active fire season demand and seasonal delivery order issuance; recent 2025-2026 activity suggests procurement volatility or reduced incident activity. No subcontract relationships, teaming arrangements, or work outside the Forest Service wildland fire domain appears in the award history.
