J Bar 7 Enterprises LLC

J Bar 7 Enterprises LLC, a small business sole proprietorship based in Missoula, Montana, operates as a prime contractor providing mechanic services with service truck capabilities for federal wildfire suppression and incident response operations, competing exclusively under total small business set-asides. All three of the vendor's recent federal awards are prime contracts issued by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service, with work performed in Dillon, Montana and surrounding regions.

The vendor's customer footprint is entirely within the USDA Forest Service. The National Interagency Fire Center (Fire and Aviation Management) accounts for one award valued at $250,000 — a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract for mechanic services with service truck support for the East Zone (Regions 1, 2, and 4), with a five-year ceiling running through August 2031 and firm fixed pricing. The Forest Service Region 1–Northern Region accounts for two delivery orders totaling $63,000 (combined potential value), both awarded in August 2026 with completion dates in late August and early September 2026. Work performed under all three awards supports local, regional, and national fire suppression operations, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed burn projects. The vendor must provide fully managed, supervised, trained, and certified personnel along with all necessary equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and lodging, with proposed rates accommodating up to 16-hour daily shifts.

All three awards are classified under NAICS 811111 (General Automotive Repair) and PSC code R429 (Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression). The vendor holds a position on Indefinite Delivery Contract 12024B26T8050, which has issued two task orders to date valued at $63,000 combined. Total combined potential value across all awards is $313,000, with $63,000 obligated as of the most recent data. The vendor operates as a 100% prime — no subcontract activity is reported. Interagency cooperators including the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs may optionally utilize the NIFC-awarded agreement subject to their respective payment and administrative terms.
