Brandon Phillips

Brandon Phillips, doing business as Diamond Truck And Auto, a sole proprietorship based in Susanville, California, provides vehicle maintenance, repair services, and mechanic truck support to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor exclusively — all 59 awards in the source are prime deliveries with no subcontract activity. Diamond Truck And Auto operates on full-and-open federal procurement vehicles with no SBA set-aside designations across most of its award footprint, though the vendor holds two total small business set-aside Indefinite Delivery Contracts ($250,000 ceiling each through June 2028) issued by the National Interagency Fire Center for mechanic services and service truck support to Forest Service Regions 5 and 6.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service dominates all metrics: the Pacific Southwest Region (R5) accounts for 39 of 59 awards and $1.7 million of the $3.1 million combined potential value; the National Interagency Fire Center adds another 7 awards and $947 thousand; and Federal Fire and Aviation Management adds 8 awards and $490 thousand. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management California Region represents 4 awards for $33 thousand. All five named customer agencies are USDA or Interior entities with wildland fire and emergency response missions. Recent representative work includes a $373,920 delivery order from Forest Service R5 awarded July 1, 2024, for wildland fire management and regional operations mechanic services; a $249,280 delivery order from the same region awarded July 5, 2025, for vehicle maintenance and repair with service truck support; and a $27,904 delivery order awarded June 20, 2026, for mechanic services supporting wildland fire suppression and emergency response operations, with ultimate completion June 28, 2026.

The vendor's work flows through four parent IDVs and BPAs, principally Indefinite Delivery Contract 12569R23T7142 (7 task orders, $925 thousand), Indefinite Delivery Contract 129J6120T7204 (9 task orders, $484 thousand), Blanket Purchase Agreement AG9J61B177374 (9 task orders, $257 thousand), and Blanket Purchase Agreement AG9J61B147094 (5 task orders, $115 thousand). Work classification is tightly aligned with wildland fire suppression: the top NAICS category is General Automotive Repair (49 awards), and the top PSC is Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (40 awards). Activity has declined from five awards per year in 2022–2023 to one or two per year in 2024–2026, with only two awards recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Combined potential value across all 59 awards stands at $3.1 million, with $1.9 million obligated (60% utilization). The vendor has maintained an active relationship with the Forest Service since 2011, demonstrating persistence in a narrow, mission-critical niche supporting regional fire management and emergency response logistics.
