Aspen Mountain Resources Inc.

Aspen Mountain Resources Inc., a veteran-owned small business, supplies water tenders, heavy equipment, personnel, and logistics services to the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management to support wildland fire suppression and emergency response operations, operating as a prime contractor on 100% of its recent federal awards. The company competes full-and-open (no set-aside designation on individual task orders) but holds two indefinite delivery contracts set aside for small businesses: one for $250,000 in water handling resources across Forest Service Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10 through June 2025, and a separate $250,000 heavy equipment IDC for Oregon and Washington through 2023.

Aspen Mountain Resources' footprint is hyperconcentrated in wildland fire logistics. All 32 recent awards cluster under two NAICS categories — Support Activities for Forestry (32 awards) and two PSC codes anchored on Forest-Range Fire Suppression and Fire Fighting Equipment. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R6 Pacific Northwest Region dominates the portfolio, issuing 21 awards totaling $945 thousand in combined potential value; the Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 7 awards at $802 thousand. These two entities represent 100% of recent awards and dollars. Work centers on delivery orders for Type 2 water tenders, equipment rental, trained personnel, transportation, and on-site management during active fire incidents across western states. Representative contracts include a $138,083 delivery order from the Forest Service for water handling and heavy equipment services (July 2024), a $41,125 firm fixed-price delivery order for water tenders and personnel support in the Pacific Northwest region (September 2024), and a $45,500 purchase order from the Forest Service Idaho Region for a Type 2 water tender (June 2025).

The vendor operates against five parent vehicles, all Forest Service Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements or Indefinite Delivery Contracts: BPA AG04H1B167446 carries nine task orders at $118 thousand combined potential value; IDC 1202SB22T7420 carries three task orders at $197 thousand; and three additional vehicles carry the remainder. Activity is episodic — five awards in 2021, one in 2022, five in 2024, and one in 2025 — reflecting demand tied to fire season and incident severity. One award (completion October 31, 2025) faces recompete exposure in the next twelve months, though the recompete opportunity is limited to that single delivery order. Combined obligated dollars across all 32 awards total $689 thousand against a $2 million combined potential value, indicating that most awards carry ceiling values exceeding actual spend.
