Brush One Contracting

Brush One Contracting is a small agricultural cooperative and sole proprietorship based in Sumpter, Oregon, specializing in roadside vegetation management and brush clearing services for federal agencies. Registered in SAM.gov since November 8, 2003, the company provides critical forestry maintenance services primarily to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, focusing on vegetation control and wildfire fuel reduction across national forests in the Pacific Northwest region. The business is strategically positioned as a small business contractor that supports forest management objectives through precise and targeted roadside brushing and maintenance operations.

The company's federal contract awards demonstrate a consistent pattern of providing roadside brushing and vegetation clearing services across multiple national forests in Oregon, including the Willamette, Umatilla, and other regional forests. Most of their contract awards are total small business set-asides, ranging in value from $22,440 to $120,125, and involve specific projects like clearing brush along forest access roads, reducing wildfire fuel loads, and maintaining accessibility in national forest areas. The contracts typically involve firm fixed-price blanket purchase agreement (BPA) call orders, with work concentrated in areas like McKenzie Bridge, Pendleton, Vida, and Douglas County. These contracts support the Forest Service's broader forestry management and wildfire prevention strategies by removing excess vegetation and maintaining defensible spaces around forest roadways.

Brush One Contracting holds a significant blanket purchase agreement (BPA) with the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region, valued at $5 million, which was awarded on May 9, 2022, and runs through December 31, 2026. This single-award BPA for roadside brushing services covers the Willamette National Forest and allows the Forest Service to issue multiple call orders for specific brush removal and vegetation management projects. Under this BPA, the agency has issued numerous task orders with total small business set-aside designations, enabling Brush One Contracting to perform brush clearing services across various locations in Oregon. The BPA represents a strategic procurement vehicle that allows the Forest Service to efficiently manage roadside maintenance and fuel reduction activities through a proven, small business contractor with demonstrated expertise in vegetation management.
