Firemax, LLC

Firemax, LLC, a veteran-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Phoenix, Arizona, delivers ambulance services (Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support) to the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service as a prime contractor under Total Small Business set-asides. The company operates exclusively as a prime, with all four recent awards issued between July and September 2026 under small-business reservations; the vendor has not held parent contract vehicles or subcontracted to larger primes in the source data.

Firemax's entire award footprint centers on a single customer: the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management program through the National Interagency Fire Center and regional offices. The National Interagency Fire Center anchors the customer concentration — one multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with a $1 million ceiling awarded July 2, 2026, running through July 2, 2028, generates the majority of Firemax's combined potential value. The remaining three awards are delivery orders placed by Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest Region) and Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region) offices against that IDIQ. The two delivery orders to Region 6 carry combined potential value of $140 thousand for ambulance services in Wenatchee, Washington and Lakeview, Oregon (completion dates September 8 and September 1, 2026, respectively). A separate Region 5 delivery order for $56 thousand was issued for performance in Solvang, California with completion required September 17, 2026.

Activity is nascent — all four awards compressed into 2026, with $196 thousand obligated against $1.2 million in combined potential value (16% burn-through). The vendor competes under a narrow capability frame: all four awards fall under NAICS Ambulance Services and PSC Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression. Firemax holds no subcontract relationships and operates without parent-vehicle diversification beyond the single NIFC IDIQ.
