Paul R Hendren, doing business as PHR Enterprise, is a minority-owned, small disadvantaged, veteran-owned, and Native American-owned business registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) from January 15, 2019, to January 8, 2026. The company operates as a sole proprietorship based in Arlee, Montana, and specializes in providing water handling services, equipment, and related support for federal land management agencies, with a primary focus on wildland fire suppression and natural resource management programs. While limited background information is available, the company has established itself as a niche provider of critical equipment and services to federal agencies, particularly within the U.S. Forest Service ecosystem.

PHR Enterprise has consistently been awarded federal delivery orders primarily from the USDA Forest Service's various regional offices, including Regions 1 (Northern Region) and 2 (Rocky Mountain Region). The company's primary goods and services include supplying Type 2 water tenders, water handling equipment, and unspecified services supporting wildfire and natural resource management programs. These delivery orders, ranging from $12,500 to $30,000, have been issued without specific set-aside designations and support the National Interagency Fire Center's emergency response capabilities. The company has provided water tenders to support wildland fire suppression efforts and delivered equipment and services to national forests, demonstrating a specialized capability in supporting federal land management and emergency response infrastructure.

PHR Enterprise holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the USDA Forest Service, originally solicited as a total small business set-aside, with a ceiling value of $250,000 and a performance period through June 1, 2025. This multiple-award contract covers water handling equipment and services across Forest Service Regions 1, 2, 4, 8, and 9, enabling the company to support emergency incident response across an expansive geographic area. Under this IDC, the company has received multiple firm fixed-price delivery orders, including a $22,900 order for water tenders and related equipment for wildland fire suppression and a $20,625 order for unspecified services supporting the Kootenai National Forest's natural resource management programs. The contract demonstrates PHR Enterprise's strategic positioning to provide critical support to federal agencies during emergency and resource management scenarios.
