Heavy Iron Firefighting LLC

Heavy Iron Firefighting LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Terrebonne, Oregon, provides Type 2 and Type 3 dozers, excavators, and related heavy equipment for wildland fire suppression, emergency incident response, and seasonal snow removal across the western United States as a prime contractor exclusively, with no subcontracting footprint.

The company operates entirely under prime contracts, holding three active Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) issued by federal wildland fire management agencies. The National Interagency Fire Center awarded two multiple-award IDCs for heavy equipment across West Zone Regions 5 and 6: a $500,000 contract awarded February 6, 2026, running through June 10, 2028, and a $250,000 contract awarded June 10, 2023, also running through June 10, 2028 — both designated total small business set-asides. The USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region awarded a $100,000 single-award IDC for snow removal services at Walton Lake Sno-Park on February 8, 2024, with completion by November 30, 2026, also a total small business set-aside. Representative recent delivery orders include a $93,320 order from the Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region for heavy firefighting equipment services in Sandy, Oregon (August 7, 2026, ultimate completion September 8, 2026), an $81,200 order for heavy equipment firefighting in Redmond, Oregon (June 13, 2026, completion July 12, 2026), and a $52,000 order for a Type 2 dozer to support wildland firefighting in Boise, Idaho, from the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (June 1, 2025, completion October 31, 2025).

Customer concentration is concentrated in two USDA Forest Service customers. The Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6) issued 33 awards with $1 million combined potential value; the National Interagency Fire Center issued 7 awards with $1.1 million combined potential value. The Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region and Oregon-Washington offices combined account for 6 awards and $213 thousand. Across 47 total prime awards spanning the past five years, the portfolio shows moderate activity growth — four awards in 2022 and 2023, eight in 2024, seven in 2025, and four in 2026 to date. Heavy Iron Firefighting LLC's work concentrates under two parent vehicles: Indefinite Delivery Contract 12569R23T7648 (11 task orders, $316 thousand) and Blanket Purchase Agreement AG04H1B177092 (11 task orders, $224 thousand), both aligned with USDA Forest Service and National Interagency Fire Center procurement. The company's capability portfolio aligns with NAICS 336400 (Support Activities for Forestry, 41 awards) and PSC Natural Resources/Conservation Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (35 awards), with secondary capability in parking facility maintenance (4 awards) and fire fighting equipment (5 awards). The vendor operates a $2.4 million combined potential value footprint with $1.2 million obligated to date, serving exclusively western U.S. fire and emergency management missions across six named agency customers.
