Black Mountain Wildfire LLC

Black Mountain Wildfire LLC, a veteran-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Eden, Utah, provides water handling services, vehicle rental with drivers, and fire suppression support to the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor exclusively under Total Small Business set-asides. The vendor operates as a sole proprietorship and competes entirely through small business reserved vehicles issued by the National Interagency Fire Center under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system.

Black Mountain Wildfire's customer base is concentrated within USDA Forest Service fire operations. The National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 7 awards valued at $2 million in combined potential value (87% of the vendor's portfolio), anchored by six indefinite delivery contracts with ceilings of $250,000 to $500,000 each covering water handling for East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9, and vehicle rental with drivers for Regions 1 and 4 through May 30, 2030 and beyond. The Forest Service's regional offices — Intermountain Region (Region 4), Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6), and Rocky Mountain Region (Region 2) — account for the remaining six awards valued at $157,000 combined. The Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region placed two purchase orders totaling $22,000. Representative task-order work includes a $62,400 firm fixed-price delivery order from Region 6 (July 27, 2026) for water handling and fire suppression support in Prineville, Oregon; an $89,700 order from Region 4 (June 23, 2026) for the same scope in Monroe, Utah; and a $42,092 Region 4 delivery order (July 19, 2025) for vehicle rental and driver support in Venice, Utah.

Recent activity shows growth — five awards in 2025 to ten in 2026 — but on a modest scale. Combined potential value across all fifteen awards totals $2.3 million, with only $280,000 (12% of potential value) obligated to date. The vendor holds seven active IDIQs under VIPR, all Total Small Business multiple-award vehicles extended through 2030 or 2031; task orders are issued against these vehicles by regional Forest Service offices on an as-needed basis for wildfire suppression and all-hazard incident response. Black Mountain Wildfire operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontractor footprint and no recorded sub-awards. Work performance spans the western and intermountain United States, with primary operations in Utah, Oregon, Idaho, and Colorado supporting federal wildland fire management and emergency response operations.
