Charles E. Ireland, LLC

Charles E. Ireland, LLC, doing business as Ireland Charles E LLC, is a woman-owned small business based in Myrtle Creek, Oregon, that provides water handling services, equipment rentals, and logistical support for wildland fire suppression and incident response operations exclusively to the USDA Forest Service as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The company operates 100% as a prime on its 56 recent federal awards, holding multiple indefinite delivery contracts (IDCs) and blanket purchase agreements (BPAs) that fund delivery orders across the Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Region and Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center.

Ireland Charles E LLC's capability footprint centers on provisioning water tenders, operator lodging, transportation, equipment rentals, and related logistical support to enable wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and natural resource management across the Forest Service's West Zone (Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10), with primary performance in the Pacific Northwest Region. Representative delivery orders include a $69,495 order issued July 27, 2026, for water handling services in Pendleton, Oregon, a $91,545 order from July 23, 2024, for equipment mobilization under an IDC, and a $94,362 order from July 20, 2024, for water tenders and logistical support. All work is structured as firm fixed-price delivery orders against the company's prime IDC and BPA vehicles, ranging from $1,695 to $94,362 per order.

Customer concentration is extreme and singular: the Forest Service R6-Pacific Northwest Region accounts for 44 of 56 awards ($1.6 million combined potential value), while the Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 9 awards ($1.8 million combined potential value). One additional Forest Service award represents $18 thousand. The top two customer entities together represent 96% of award count and 100% of combined potential value. Ireland holds five active indefinite delivery contracts and blanket purchase agreements: IDC 1202SB22T7636 (15 task orders, $520 thousand combined potential value), BPA AG04H1B167200 (15 task orders, $286 thousand combined potential value), IDC 1204H119T7161 (7 task orders, $153 thousand combined potential value), BPA AG04H1B137051 (4 task orders, $165 thousand combined potential value), and IDC 1204H125T7189 (2 task orders, $71 thousand combined potential value). Most recent IDC awards on February 6, 2026, carry $500 thousand ceilings each under total small business set-asides through May 2030, supporting water handling and heavy equipment for Region 6 and West Zone Regions 5 and 6.

Activity reflects seasonal and incident-driven demand: four awards in 2022, eight in 2023, four in 2024, two in 2025, and five year-to-date in 2026. Combined potential value across all 56 awards stands at $3.4 million, with $1.2 million (36%) obligated to date. The company operates entirely within NAICS 561710 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC code for Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression, with no visible diversification into other customer agencies or service lines.
