Garrett Roper

Garrett Roper is a self-certified small disadvantaged business operating as a sole proprietorship under the trade name Roper Asset Maintenance. Located in Grass Valley, California, Roper Asset Maintenance provides water handling services and equipment to support the U.S. Forest Service's fire suppression and all-hazard incident response activities.

Through prime federal contract awards from the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region, Roper Asset Maintenance has furnished water handling resources including equipment, materials, transportation, lodging, and personnel. In October 2022, the company received two firm fixed price delivery orders totaling $57,292.37 to supply these products and services for wildland fire management in California. These task orders were issued under a $250,000 indefinite delivery vehicle for water handling support across Forest Service regions in the western United States.

Roper Asset Maintenance holds an indefinite delivery contract as a prime contractor on the VIPR I-BPA for Water Handling for the West Zone. Awarded in June 2022 through a total small business set-aside, this multiple-award blanket purchase agreement allows the Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management group to procure water handling services and assets indefinitely for incident response in California, Oregon, Washington, and Nevada. Under this IDV, Roper Asset Maintenance provides certified personnel, equipment, supplies, housing, transportation, and oversight to furnish water handling capabilities. The contract ceiling of $250,000 enables the Forest Service to issue task orders to Roper Asset Maintenance for these services until June 2025 in support of its wildland fire program and all-hazard incident management activities.
