Dobbins Farms LLC

Dobbins Farms LLC, a small business sole proprietorship based in Ridgefield, Washington, supplies water handling equipment, heavy equipment, mechanic services, and refrigerated trailers for wildland fire suppression and emergency response to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides, with no subcontract activity.

The vendor's customer base is highly concentrated. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 9 awards valued at $2.8 million combined potential value, while the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6–Pacific Northwest Region holds 14 awards valued at $603 thousand. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region rounds out the active customer set with 2 awards valued at $19 thousand, for a total of 100% coverage across three customer agencies. Despite Region 6's higher award count, the National Interagency Fire Center dominates the dollar ranking, anchoring the vendor's portfolio through higher-ceiling indefinite delivery contracts.

Dobbins Farms holds nine active indefinite delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center, each valued at $250,000 to $500,000 and designated as total small business set-asides running through 2028–2030. Four IDCs are awarded under multiple-award vehicles: refrigerated trailers for Regions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 ($250,000 ceiling, awarded February 6, 2026); water handling equipment for Region 6 ($500,000 ceiling, awarded February 6, 2026); miscellaneous heavy equipment for Region 6 ($500,000 ceiling, awarded February 6, 2026); and mechanic services with service trucks for Regions 5 and 6 ($250,000 ceiling, awarded February 6, 2026). An additional five IDCs carry older award dates (June 2023–July 2026) under the same geographic and service scope. Task orders issued against these vehicles in 2025 and 2026 include a $49,397 delivery order for water handling equipment in October 2025, a $23,985 order for miscellaneous heavy equipment in September 2025, and a $71,200 order for fire suppression equipment in August 2026. Work performed at locations across western Forest Service regions—Wenatchee, Tumwater, Vancouver (Washington), Sandy (Oregon), and Boise (Idaho)—reflects the vendor's geographic posture supporting rapid incident response deployment.

Activity has accelerated sharply. The vendor received 1 award in 2019, 1 in 2023, 2 in 2024, 9 in 2025, and 12 in 2026, demonstrating strong growth trajectory driven by National Interagency Fire Center IDC awards. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $372 thousand against $3.4 million combined potential value—an 11% obligation rate reflecting the indefinite delivery structure and the reliance on task-order issuance. The vendor competes exclusively under total small business set-asides and does not subcontract, performing all work with internal personnel and equipment. Primary NAICS is Support Activities for Forestry (21 awards); primary PSC is Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (23 awards).
