Gizmo It Inc.

Gizmo It Inc., doing business as Browning David, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Bend, Oregon, that provides clerical support, Geographic Information Systems services, satellite communications, and IT solutions to federal wildland fire management and incident response operations as a prime contractor exclusively. Operating as a Subchapter S Corporation, Gizmo It Inc. competes entirely under total small business set-asides on its core IDIQ holdings and wins the majority of its task orders without set-aside designation, positioning it as a small business vendor with recurring access to federal fire management spending.

Gizmo It Inc. concentrates its customer base entirely within the Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management. The Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center anchors the portfolio by count-share and dollar-share, accounting for 28 awards valued at $4.5 million combined, while the Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6) delivers 42 awards at $4.4 million combined potential value — together representing 100% of the vendor's named customer agencies across the source data. The Pacific Northwest and Pacific Southwest Regions drive the bulk of activity, with performance locations spanning Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and California fire zones. Recent representative work includes a $357,513.83 delivery order from USDA Forest Service Region 6 for clerical support and IT solutions at Pendleton, Oregon (awarded July 19, 2026), a $153,182.75 order for GIS and clerical assistance in Pendleton (July 12, 2026), and a $206 thousand all-hazard incident response order through the Virtual Incident Procurement system for the Medford area (September 6, 2025).

Gizmo It Inc. holds four primary Indefinite Delivery Contracts issued by the National Interagency Fire Center under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, all structured as total small business multiple-award Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements running through April 2028. These IDVs carry ceiling values of $500,000 (GIS Unit for Region 13, awarded February 9, 2026), $750,000 (Clerical Support Unit for Region 13, awarded February 6, 2026), and two additional $250,000 vehicles for GIS and clerical support (awarded April 16 and April 17, 2025). Task orders flow from these IDVs and from older blanket purchase agreements under Forest Service regional procurement channels, with five named parent vehicles accounting for 32 task orders and $2.6 million in combined potential value. The vendor's activity has grown modestly year over year—nine awards in 2022 to thirteen in 2025—with a documented 84 prime awards across the source window and a combined potential value of $9.7 million, of which $6.7 million has been obligated. No subcontract activity appears in the source.

Work concentrates in three primary service lines under NAICS 541611 (Support Activities for Forestry), NAICS 541371 (Surveying and Mapping Services), and NAICS 561439 (Other Business Service Centers). Clerical support units are the highest-volume commodity (22 awards), followed by GIS and mapping services (24 awards) and fire suppression support activities (29 awards). Purchase orders and delivery orders are firm fixed-price, with individual awards ranging from $3,380 to $462,284. The vendor supports fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed burn operations across Regions 1 through 6, with coordination through the National Interagency Fire Center and optional use by the Department of Interior and cooperating agencies. Personnel and equipment deployment follow virtual dispatch center assignment based on regional resource location and incident need.
