Blue Mountain Fire Suppression Incorporated

Blue Mountain Fire Suppression Incorporated, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Central Point, Oregon, supplies wildland fire suppression personnel, equipment, and all-hazard incident response resources to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the Department of the Interior as a prime contractor on federal delivery orders and indefinite-delivery contracts, operating exclusively under total small business set-asides across its prime footprint.

The company specializes in three core service offerings: Type 2, 20-person firefighter crews; water handling equipment including engines and water tenders; and chipper equipment with associated crews. Recent representative work includes a $240 million multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract for Type 2 firefighter crews awarded May 12, 2025, under total small business set-aside through the National Interagency Fire Center (performance through July 1, 2027); a $500 thousand water handling equipment BPA awarded February 6, 2026, for Region 6 Pacific Northwest operations through May 29, 2030; and a $500 thousand chipper BPA awarded February 6, 2026, for Regions 5 and 6 through May 5, 2030. Delivery order awards drawn from these vehicles total approximately $11.3 million across more than forty task orders issued between August 2025 and October 2025, with individual orders ranging from $6 thousand to $396 thousand and scheduled completion by May 10, 2026.

Customer concentration sits with the Department of Agriculture Forest Service, which accounts for 33 awards (82% of award count by coverage) and $244.7 million in combined potential value—nearly 94% of Blue Mountain's total federal portfolio. Within that universe, Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) leads by count with 24 awards, while the broader Forest Service organization dominates by dollars. Secondary customers are Forest Service Regions 1 (Northern), 5 (Pacific Southwest), and regional components of the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region, each with single-digit to mid-teen awards.

Blue Mountain holds three primary parent vehicles. The Type 2 BPA (IDC 1202SC25T2402) is the dominant vehicle, with 96 task orders and $16.8 million in combined potential value. Two newer blanket purchase agreements for water handling equipment and chipper services (IDCs 1204H126T7055 and 1204H125T7165) carry 4 and 3 task orders respectively and capture the remaining vehicle-based volume. All vehicles are structured as multiple-award IDCs designated for total small business set-asides through the National Interagency Fire Center, operating on firm fixed-price delivery order calls with performance periods extending to 2027 and 2030 respectively.

Activity has remained substantial across 2025 and 2026. Blue Mountain was awarded 69 prime contracts in 2025 and 51 through October 2026, with combined obligated dollars reaching $19.1 million against $260.6 million in combined potential value—indicating a significant execution gap and a future recompete surface. In the next twenty-four months, 42 awards (combined potential value $7.4 million) face ultimate completion and recompete exposure, concentrated in the May 10, 2026, completion window for delivery orders issued under the Type 2 BPA.

Blue Mountain's footprint aligns tightly with forestry support (NAICS 115310) and forest-range fire suppression/presuppression work (PSC code, 117 of 120 awards). The vendor operates 100% as a prime contractor with no documented sub-award relationships, and competes exclusively under total small business set-asides rather than full-and-open procurement. This posture reflects its self-certified small disadvantaged business status and the Forest Service's strong reliance on small-business-designated multiple-award vehicles for regionally distributed fire suppression resources.
