III Peaks Contracting LLC

III Peaks Contracting LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Ukiah, Oregon, provides vegetation management, mechanical thinning, hand piling, and wildfire suppression services to federal land management agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). The company operates as a sole proprietorship and competes entirely under small business set-asides, with the vast majority of awards designated Total Small Business.

III Peaks' customer base is concentrated among two federal agencies. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest Region) accounts for 21 awards valued at $8.5 million combined potential value, while the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 12 awards valued at $3.8 million. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region represents a single $112 thousand award. Within Region 6, III Peaks holds a $4,999,999 single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement for vegetation management and forestry services across approximately 250 miles of national forest land, running through May 2027. Call orders under this BPA have funded discrete projects including a $434,669 NFJD Thin/Pile order (awarded June 2023), a $185,700 North Fork John Day Mechanical Thinning order (awarded May 2023), and a $153,425 Huckleberry Thin and Grapple order (awarded August 2023). More recently, a $96,043 Ten Cent #4 Thin and Grapple BPA call order was awarded in June 2024 and is scheduled for completion in October 2026.

III Peaks also holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center. These IDCs establish dedicated vehicles for vehicle-with-driver services ($250 thousand each through 2030 and 2029), heavy equipment procurement ($500 thousand through 2028 and 2029), potable and gray water truck and handwashing stations ($500 thousand through 2029), and mechanic services with service trucks ($250 thousand through 2030). These contracts support wildland fire suppression, emergency incident response, and prescribed fire operations across Regions 5 and 6. A separate $2 million multiple-award BPA for fuels reduction services on the Malheur National Forest (awarded August 2023, running through August 2033) qualifies up to 15 contractors for forest thinning and vegetation management call orders ranging from $2,500 to $400,000.

Activity has grown from three awards in 2022 to eleven in 2024, with eight awards through August 2026. Only one award (combined potential value $186 thousand) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. The company's capability footprint centers on forest thinning, vegetation management, and equipment provision for fuels reduction and wildfire mitigation across national forest lands in the Pacific Northwest and Intermountain West. Recent delivery orders from Region 6 include a $65,944 vegetation management order (awarded August 2026), a $149,919 thin-and-hand-pile order at Lower Joseph Swamp Creek near Enterprise, Oregon (awarded September 2025), and a $112,200 Type 1 masticator purchase from the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (awarded June 2025). Combined dollars obligated total $1.6 million against $12.3 million combined potential value across all awards, reflecting the early-stage execution posture of III Peaks' federal contract portfolio.
