Bryson Hopkins

Bryson Hopkins, doing business as Hopkins Forestry, operates as a small business sole proprietorship based in Enterprise, Oregon, delivering forest road maintenance, snow removal, and wildland fire suppression support services to the USDA Forest Service and related federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. Hopkins Forestry has maintained a continuous federal contracting relationship since SAM.gov registration in October 2003 and competes predominantly under the total small business set-aside category across its entire prime footprint.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on three concrete service lines. Road maintenance includes surface blading, drainage structure maintenance, ditch cleaning, culvert work, and vegetation management across national forests in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest — exemplified by a $115,720 purchase order awarded April 15, 2026, for roadway surface maintenance on 10.4 miles, drainage structure maintenance on 33.2 miles, and vegetation maintenance on 3.9 miles at the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, and a $126,231 BPA call in June 2023 for road surface maintenance across 258 miles of roads on the Umatilla National Forest. Snow removal services include plowing and clearing operations at designated snow parks, such as a $21,500 delivery order awarded December 5, 2024, for salt Creek Snow Park snow plowing through April 2025. Water handling equipment and personnel support wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response, supplied under multiple indefinite delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center, including a $250,000 multiple-award IDC awarded February 6, 2026, for water handling equipment, personnel, and transportation across Forest Service Region 6.

Customer concentration is heavily concentrated with the USDA Forest Service ecosystem. The top five customer entities account for 58 percent of awards by count, led by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6—Pacific Northwest Region with 78 awards totaling $7.5 million in combined potential value. By dollar value, USDA Forest Service R6 again dominates at 61 percent of the combined potential-value ranking, followed by the National Interagency Fire Center (4 awards, $1 million), the Rocky Mountain Research Station (6 awards, $700 thousand), and the Intermountain Region (7 awards, $381 thousand). The concentration reflects Hopkins Forestry's embedded role as the primary contractor for seasonal and routine maintenance on Oregon national forests.

Hopkins Forestry holds multiple standing indefinite delivery contracts. The Wallowa-Whitman Snow Parks Snow Removal IDIQ, awarded December 12, 2022, with a $75,350 ceiling, expired December 18, 2024, but was succeeded by a new single-award IDC awarded December 29, 2025, with a $69,900 ceiling running through December 30, 2027. The vendor also holds two water handling IDCs with the National Interagency Fire Center: a $250,000 multiple-award contract awarded June 1, 2022, (ultimate completion June 6, 2025) and a second $250,000 multiple-award IDC awarded May 29, 2025, (completion May 29, 2030). Task order volumes under these IDCs run between 13 and 20 calls per vehicle; the vendor's top five parent IDCs carry between $63 thousand and $514 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting the seasonal and modest-scale nature of Forest Service maintenance work. The vendor's award portfolio spans NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street and Bridge Construction) and 561790 (Other Services to Buildings and Dwellings), with activity concentrated in road maintenance and natural resources conservation work.

Activity has declined materially in recent years — six awards in 2022 stepping to two awards in 2025 and two in 2026 — though this reflects the maturation of long-standing IDC relationships generating smaller, repeated task orders rather than new prime contract wins. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying a combined potential value of $116 thousand, positioning minimal recompete exposure in the immediate term. Hopkins Forestry has no subcontract footprint and does not appear on any government-wide acquisition contracts, agency-wide IDIQs, or GSA Schedules.
