Alta Pacific Fire Fighting, LLC

Alta Pacific Fire Fighting, LLC, a minority-owned, woman-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Redding, California, is the prime contractor providing Type 2 wildland firefighter crews and incident support services to the U.S. Forest Service under the National Type 2 Firefighter Crews multiple-award IDIQ, awarded June 15, 2022, with a $150 million ceiling extended through July 1, 2027. The company operates exclusively as a prime contractor—no subcontract footprint is present in the source data—competing under Total Small Business set-asides across all six Forest Service regions.

Alta Pacific's federal work is narrowly focused on wildland firefighting. The company deploys fully trained and equipped Type 2 crews to respond to seasonal fire demand and all-hazard incident calls across national forests and grasslands nationwide. Representative examples include a $289.3 million delivery order from the Rocky Mountain Region (July 1, 2026) for crew deployment in Delta, Colorado; a $274.8 million order from the Pacific Northwest Region (August 22, 2026) in Baker City, Oregon; a $278.9 million order from the Intermountain Region (July 5, 2026) in Price, Utah; and a $270.3 million order from the Rocky Mountain Region (July 14, 2026) also in Delta, Colorado. All recent delivery orders carry firm fixed-price structures and ultimate completion dates of either July 1, 2027, or May 10, 2026. The company also holds two supplemental IDICs for chipper services and equipment in Forest Service Regions 5 and 6: a $500,000 vehicle awarded February 6, 2026, and a $250,000 vehicle under the Virtual Incident Procurement system awarded May 28, 2024, both running through May 28, 2029, though neither has generated visible task order activity in the source.

Customer concentration is extreme and monolithic. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service accounts for all 235 awards and 100% of the combined potential value of $231 million. By region, the Intermountain Region (R4), Pacific Southwest Region (R5), and Pacific Northwest Region (R6) collectively dominate the footprint, with 110 awards representing approximately 47% of recent volume. The Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center IDIQ itself represents $195.8 million in combined potential value across three awards. The recompete cliff shows 45 awards (combined potential value $8.8 million) expiring within the next twenty-four months, all with completion dates of May 10, 2026, or July 1, 2027.

Activity trajectory is volatile but upward overall. Awards jumped from 15 in 2022 (the year the parent IDIQ was awarded) to 29 in 2023, then accelerated to 76 in 2024 and 67 in 2025 before moderating to 48 in 2026 (through September). However, these figures reflect delivery order volume; dollars obligated are low relative to potential value—$35.3 million obligated against $231 million in potential, representing 15% actual spend. This mismatch suggests many orders reflect small, time-bound crew deployments for specific incidents rather than full ceiling consumption.

Recent delivery order activity is concentrated across all six Forest Service regions. Between late June and early September 2026, Alta Pacific received more than 40 delivery orders with individual ceilings ranging from $8,862 to $289,257. Regional distribution shows no geographic concentration beyond the natural dispersion of fire seasons and incident management needs. The company competes exclusively under Total Small Business set-asides on the national Type 2 IDIQ and takes no other federal contracts outside wildland firefighting.

The vendor profile reflects a specialized, single-mission prime contractor with deep Forest Service regional relationships, high delivery-order velocity, and full-and-open competition posture within its narrow Total Small Business-set-aside niche. No growth beyond wildland firefighting is evident; no other federal agencies, contracts, or capability lines appear in the award history.
