Big Kahuna Resources LLC

Big Kahuna Resources LLC, a small-business limited liability company based in Moore, Montana, supplies heavy equipment, water, and personnel for fire suppression and all-hazard incident response to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor under total small-business set-asides. The vendor operates exclusively in forestry support and wildland fire management, with all six recent awards concentrated in that single mission area.

The vendor's customer footprint is entirely within USDA Forest Service. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 4 awards carrying $1.3 million in combined potential value, while the Forest Service's Region 1 (Northern Region) and Region 2 (Rocky Mountain Region) field single delivery orders each worth approximately $138 thousand and $141 thousand respectively. Big Kahuna holds position on two indefinite-delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center: one for miscellaneous heavy equipment in East Zone (Regions 1, 2, and 4) with a $250 thousand ceiling running through August 2029, and another for heavy equipment in East Zone (Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9) with a $250 thousand ceiling expiring August 2028. The vendor also holds two Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system for heavy equipment with water services in Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9, one with a $500 thousand ceiling awarded February 2026 through May 2030, and another with a $250 thousand ceiling awarded May 2025 through May 2030. Both I-BPAs authorize optional use by the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs. Recent delivery orders include a $137.6 thousand total small-business delivery order from Region 1 Northern Region with performance in Dillon, Montana (ultimate completion September 4, 2026) and a $141.1 thousand total small-business delivery order from Region 2 Rocky Mountain Region with performance in Pueblo, Colorado (ultimate completion July 26, 2026).

Activity has grown sharply — one award in 2025 to five in 2026 — though obligated dollars remain modest at $279 thousand across a $1.5 million combined potential value. All work is classified under NAICS 115210 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC classification covering natural resources, conservation, forest-range fire suppression, and presuppression activities. The vendor has no subcontract footprint and does not hold positions on GSA-managed or multi-agency vehicles; all awards flow directly from USDA Forest Service regional and national offices.
