Archer Mountain Enterprises LLC

Archer Mountain Enterprises LLC, a Troy, Idaho-based for-profit Subchapter S corporation, supplies specialized wildland firefighting equipment, trained personnel, and incident response resources to the U.S. Forest Service and related federal agencies as a prime contractor. The vendor operates exclusively under full-and-open (non-set-aside) and total-small-business set-aside delivery orders against multiple indefinite delivery contracts managed through the Forest Service's Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, with all 232 awards in the recent portfolio held as prime contracts—no subcontract footprint.

Archer Mountain's concrete service portfolio centers on wildland fire suppression and emergency response. The vendor supplies Type 3–6 fire engines, Type 1–3 support water tenders, tactical water tenders, Type 1 chipper equipment with crews, water handling services, vehicle-with-driver services, mechanic services with support trucks, and trained faller personnel. Representative named work includes a $67,900 delivery order from the Forest Service Region 4 (Intermountain Region) on 27 June 2026 for wildland firefighting and incident response resources; a $226,383.54 delivery order from Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region) on 13 August 2024 for specialized vehicles and operators; and a $164,275 delivery order from the Intermountain Region on 19 August 2024 for engines, water tenders, and faller services. All recent delivery orders carry firm fixed-price terms and short performance windows (typically days to weeks), consistent with the VIPR system's model of rapid resource deployment during fire seasons and emergency incidents.

Customer concentration is tightly focused on Forest Service regional operations across the western United States. The top five funded agencies account for 78% of recent awards, with the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) anchoring both volume and dollar value: 34 awards carrying $4.9 million combined potential value. The Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Region (R6) and Intermountain Region (R4) follow at 73 awards ($2.1 million) and 36 awards ($2 million), respectively. NIFC's dominance reflects Archer Mountain's seat on multiple region-specific water handling, chipper equipment, vehicle-with-driver, mechanic, and faller IDCs, each valued at $250,000 and extending through 2028–2030. Across regions, 227 of 231 categorized awards fall under the PSC Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression, with 158 awards under NAICS 561730 (Support Activities for Forestry).

Archer Mountain holds at least ten named indefinite delivery vehicles, all VIPR-managed IDCs or blanket purchase agreements issued by NIFC or regional Forest Service offices. The top-ranking parent vehicle—IDC 1202SB22T7404—carries 23 task orders worth $1.2 million combined potential value. IDC 1202SB22T7183 accounts for 16 task orders ($1.1 million), and three additional vehicles (1204H120T7012, 1284M819T7045, AG04H1B177247) each carry 13–21 task orders. All vehicles are structured as total small business set-asides with $250,000 ceilings, supporting fire suppression and all-hazard incident response across Pacific Southwest, Pacific Northwest, Intermountain, Southwestern, Northern, and East Zone regions.

Activity has remained relatively steady over five years, with 33 awards in 2022, declining to 14 in 2023, then recovering to 28 in 2024 and 27 in 2025. The most recent award dates to 27 June 2026, indicating active engagement into the current contracting year. Combined potential value stands at $13.6 million across all 232 awards, with $6.4 million (47%) obligated to date. The vendor registered with SAM.gov in 2012 and has received more than 30 federal contract awards since 2019, establishing itself as a recurring supplier within the Forest Service's emergency response infrastructure. No subcontracting or teaming relationships appear in the source material; Archer Mountain operates as a direct prime contractor to the Forest Service and NIFC across all named awards.
