Badger Dirtworks & Construction, LLC

Badger Dirtworks & Construction, LLC, a small business sole proprietorship based in Ellensburg, Washington, provides heavy equipment rental, excavation, and construction services to federal agencies under total small business set-asides as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). The vendor specializes in wildland fire suppression and all-hazard emergency response equipment and personnel deployment, operating exclusively in the western United States with performance concentrated in Wenatchee, Washington and U.S. Forest Service Regions 5 and 6. Badger Dirtworks' award portfolio centers on NAICS 561730 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC G506 (Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression).

Customer concentration is narrow and mission-focused. The top two federal customers account for 100% of recent awards: the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center (3 awards, $1 million combined potential value) and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6 Pacific Northwest Region (6 awards, $598 thousand combined potential value), with a single $7,900 purchase order from the Department of the Interior US Geological Survey Office of Acquisitions and Grants. The two customer rankings align on dollar dominance—the National Interagency Fire Center holds the largest awards despite having fewer contract vehicles than Region 6.

Badger Dirtworks holds position on two indefinite-delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center, both structured as total small business set-aside, firm fixed-price multiple-award IDCs. The first, awarded February 6, 2026, with a $500,000 ceiling running through June 9, 2028, covers heavy equipment for West Zone Regions 5 and 6; three task orders totaling $117 thousand have been placed against it. The second, a Vendor Managed Indefinite Blanket Purchase Agreement awarded June 9, 2023, with a $250,000 ceiling also running through June 9, 2028, covers the same geography; two task orders totaling $331 thousand have executed. Representative work includes a $292,007 delivery order from Region 6 on June 23, 2025, for equipment rental and personnel support through October 6, 2025, and a $42,109.90 delivery order from Region 6 on September 7, 2026, for fire suppression equipment support closing September 21, 2026.

Activity accelerated from one award per year in 2022 and 2023 to four awards in 2026, with two awards placed in 2025. Combined potential value across the ten-award portfolio stands at $1.6 million, with $456 thousand obligated. The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint. All performance occurs in Wenatchee, Washington or subordinate fire suppression and emergency response locations across western regions.
