Bennett Timber Cutting LLC

Bennett Timber Cutting LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business (WOSB/SDB) based in Cottonwood, California, provides wildland fire suppression faller services to the U.S. Forest Service and the National Interagency Fire Center as a 100% prime contractor on a narrow but specialized forestry-services platform. The vendor operates exclusively under total small business set-asides and delivers skilled tree-felling and hazard-tree removal work across Forest Service West Zone Regions 5 and 6, with all three recent awards rooted in federal fire-management and incident-response operations.

Bennett Timber Cutting LLC's customer footprint is confined to Department of Agriculture Forest Service entities, with two awards ($500 thousand combined potential value) held under the National Interagency Fire Center and one award ($16 thousand) issued by the Pacific Southwest Region office. The vendor holds two firm fixed-price indefinite delivery contracts for faller services — a multiple-award IDC awarded February 6, 2026, with a $250 thousand ceiling through June 1, 2028, and an earlier Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) BPA awarded June 1, 2023, with an identical $250 thousand ceiling through the same completion date. A single task order valued at $16.2 thousand was placed against the VIPR vehicle by the Pacific Southwest Region and is due to complete September 7, 2025. Both IDVs are set aside for total small business and allow the government to issue additional task orders without further competition for rapid mobilization of faller resources during planned and emergency wildland fire suppression and vegetation-management operations.

Recent activity is sparse — one award per year in 2023, 2025, and 2026 — with only $16 thousand of the $516 thousand combined potential value obligated to date, indicating the IDVs remain lightly tasked. The vendor's capability focus is tightly scoped to PSC Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression work and NAICS 238910 (Support Activities for Forestry), with no subcontract or multi-agency exposure present in the award portfolio.
