Boulder Ridge, LLC

Boulder Ridge, LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Bend, Oregon, operates as a prime contractor providing heavy equipment, vehicles, and support resources for wildland fire suppression, forest management, and emergency response operations exclusively to federal land-management agencies. The vendor competes predominantly under total small business set-asides across its federal footprint—all 76 awards in the portfolio carry either total small business or no set-aside designations, with the set-aside category recurring across multiple vehicle types and regions.

Boulder Ridge's capability portfolio centers on equipment rental and forestry support services. The company delivers dozers, excavators, feller bunchers, logging trucks, refrigerated trailers, potable and gray water trucks, trailer-mounted handwashing stations, and trained personnel to support wildfire prevention, suppression, land restoration, and incident response. Representative work includes a $6.16 million definitive contract with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) awarded in July 2025 for forest restoration stewardship on the Deschutes National Forest near Bend—spanning timber removal across approximately 3,698 acres, biomass processing, road reconstruction, and stand treatments through November 2032; a $132,000 delivery order from the same region in July 2024 for heavy equipment and support resources for wildfire suppression; and a $386,400 purchase order from Region 6 in September 2022 for feller buncher services in Springfield, Oregon.

Customer concentration is tightly clustered within the Department of Agriculture's forestry mission. The top two customers account for substantially all awards: the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest Region) holds 48 awards worth $8.7 million in combined potential value, and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center holds 22 awards worth $5.7 million. Three regional offices of the Forest Service and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management account for the remaining 6 awards totaling $122 thousand. This concentration reflects Boulder Ridge's geographic footprint—the vendor operates from Bend, Oregon, positioning it as a primary supplier for Pacific Northwest wildland fire and forest management operations.

Boulder Ridge holds position on multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) and Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) issued by the National Interagency Fire Center and Forest Service regional offices. The vendor sits on at least fifteen named IDC/BPA vehicles, including multiple VIPR (Virtual Incident Procurement) I-BPAs established between 2022 and 2026 with ceiling values ranging from $250,000 to $500,000 each. Representative vehicles include Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SB22T7364 with 8 task orders totaling $90 thousand; Blanket Purchase Agreement AG04H1B157294 with 5 task orders worth $247 thousand; and Blanket Purchase Agreement AG04H1B157273 with 7 task orders valued at $63 thousand. These vehicles are reserved for small business contractors and structured to enable rapid equipment deployment across Forest Service regions during wildfire and all-hazard incidents, with annual review opportunities for contractor additions.

Activity has remained steady to slightly up in recent years—averaging 6.8 awards annually over the past five years, with 9 awards in 2026 year-to-date (through July). Combined potential value across all 76 awards sits at $14.5 million, with $6.3 million obligated to date. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor—100% of awards are prime contracts, IDVs, or indefinite delivery agreements with no subcontract footprint in the source data.

Boulder Ridge's work is concentrated in NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), which accounts for 52 of 76 awards, with a secondary concentration in NAICS 492210 (Specialized Freight Trucking, Local) across 22 awards. The corresponding PSC concentration shows 72 awards under Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression, with the remainder split across equipment leasing and facilities maintenance codes. Place of performance spans the Pacific Northwest (Prineville and Springfield, Oregon; John Day, Oregon; Boise, Idaho) and extends across multiple Forest Service regions under VIPR contracts, reflecting Boulder Ridge's role as a regional equipment provider with optional use across Regions 1 through 9 and eligibility for Department of Interior interagency cooperators.
