Conversion LLC

Conversion LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Carson, Washington, provides specialized equipment and mechanic support services for wildland fire suppression and forestry operations to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime (100% of recent awards) on small business set-aside IDCs and firm fixed-price delivery orders, with no subcontract footprint in the source data.

Conversion LLC's capability portfolio centers on water handling equipment (water tender vehicles), service trucks with on-site mechanic support for heavy equipment maintenance, and mobile field support for wildland fire suppression and forestry management across western Forest Service regions. Representative work includes a $91.5 thousand delivery order from the Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6) for water handling equipment and services (awarded July 28, 2024), a $72.6 thousand delivery order from the same region for forestry support services in Springfield, Oregon (awarded August 29, 2023), and multiple $40–$50 thousand purchase orders from the Forest Service's Idaho Region for service trucks with mechanic support (awarded June 1, 2025). The vendor also holds two active indefinite delivery contracts under the National Interagency Fire Center's Virtual Incident Procurement system: a $250 thousand mechanic services contract with a service truck for Regions 5 and 6 (awarded February 6, 2026, running through June 4, 2028) and a second $250 thousand contract of the same scope awarded June 4, 2023. A third IDC for water handling services across regions 3, 5, 6, and 10 (awarded June 2, 2022, through June 2, 2025) represents the vendor's earlier contract vehicle positioning with NIFC.

Customer concentration is narrow and stable. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 67% of awards by count and potential value (5 awards, $810 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (4 awards, $181 thousand) and the Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (2 awards, $164 thousand). All eleven awards carry small business set-aside designations across the IDC vehicles and task orders. Activity has averaged roughly two awards per year over the past five years, with four awards in 2025 and one award in early 2026. The vendor's combined potential value across all awards stands at $1.2 million; obligated dollars total $405 thousand (35% of potential value), indicating modest revenue realization. NAICS concentration reflects the service mix: Support Activities for Forestry (7 awards) and General Automotive Repair (4 awards); all eleven awards fall under PSC Natural Resources/Conservation — Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression.
