Delange Enterprises, Inc.

Delange Enterprises, Inc., doing business as Boulder Creek Contracting, is an SBA-certified HUBZone small business and woman-owned firm that operates as a prime contractor delivering wildland fire suppression equipment, heavy equipment rentals, and road maintenance services to federal agencies, predominantly the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service across the western United States. The company, headquartered in Winthrop, Washington, competes almost entirely under small-business set-asides and holds multiple indefinite delivery vehicles with the Forest Service and National Interagency Fire Center spanning fire suppression equipment, heavy machinery, water handling resources, and road maintenance through 2033.

Delange's customer base is heavily concentrated with the Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6), which accounts for 146 of 201 tracked awards (90% of award count) and $58.1 million of the $77.9 million combined potential value across the portfolio. The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District is the second-largest customer by dollar value with 14 awards worth $13.9 million, followed by the National Interagency Fire Center with 21 awards valued at $3.5 million. The vendor has served nine distinct federal customer agencies total; the top five drive 99% of combined potential value. Recent award activity has grown: 18 awards in 2022, declining to 7 in 2023, then rising to 20 awards in 2026, reflecting the seasonal and reactive nature of wildland fire and emergency-response procurement.

Delange holds a portfolio of parent vehicles anchored by a $49 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with Forest Service Region 6 for road maintenance services running through June 30, 2033 (awarded July 11, 2023). The vendor also sits on multiple Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) Indefinite Delivery Contracts issued by the National Interagency Fire Center—small-business set-aside IDCs for water handling equipment ($500 thousand ceilings), miscellaneous heavy equipment ($500 thousand ceilings), and heavy equipment for West Zone Regions 5 and 6 ($250 thousand ceilings)—all carrying firm fixed-price task-order mechanisms through 2028 to 2030. Recent task orders against these vehicles range from $2,100 to $370,944, with delivery orders typically completed within weeks to months, reflecting rapid-response procurement for fire suppression and emergency management.

Representative recent work includes a $370,944 purchase order (August 17, 2025) for dump trucks to Forest Service Wenatchee locations under no set-aside, a $319,739 purchase order (July 19, 2025) for dump-truck delivery to the same region, a $115,509 delivery order (September 6, 2025) for equipment and operational support under the VIPR road-maintenance BPA, and a $159,600 delivery order (July 20, 2026) for equipment services to Pendleton, Oregon under total small-business set-aside. The vendor also executes smaller task orders—$5,700 to $84,000 range—against Forest Service region-based IDVs for water tenders, dozers, excavators, and crew support across Oregon and Washington. All recent awards are firm fixed price and draw from pre-established vehicle mechanisms enabling the government to procure critical resources quickly during peak operational periods.

The top NAICS categories in Delange's award footprint are Support Activities for Forestry (167 awards) and Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction (23 awards), with the top PSC code being Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (160 awards). The company has delivered 223 total prime awards with $77.9 million combined potential value and $10.3 million obligated (13% execution rate), consistent with IDV-based procurement where ceiling values are posted but not all capacity is exercised annually. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no subcontract activity appears in the award record. Delange's HUBZone and small-business-woman-owned designations are material to its competitive posture—the majority of its awards carry small-business set-asides or HUBZone preferences, and the company competes predominantly within those categories rather than full-and-open solicitations.
