J.o. International Reforestation, Inc.

J.o. International Reforestation, Inc., doing business as Jo International Reforestation Inc., a minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned small business based in Grants Pass, Oregon, operates as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) delivering reforestation, land management, and wildland fire support services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the National Interagency Fire Center across western federal regions. The company is a Subchapter S Corporation registered in SAM.gov since June 2001, competing predominantly under total small business set-aside vehicles, with a recent footprint spanning delivery orders and indefinite-delivery contracts under firm fixed-price structures.

The top three funding agencies by combined potential value account for 90% of the vendor's active portfolio. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6) leads with 29 awards totaling $2.7 million in combined potential value, anchoring the vendor's core customer relationship. The National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 7 awards worth $2.5 million combined, and the broader Forest Service accounts for 10 awards valued at $707 thousand. A secondary source of award count—the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission with 90 awards—appears to reflect administrative or grant-processing volume rather than operational prime contracting work, and does not appear in the potential-value ranking, suggesting those awards are either sub-threshold or historical. The Bureau of Land Management rounds out the active customer set with 32 awards. Recent representative work includes a $79,884 firm fixed-price delivery order from the Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region issued August 11, 2026, for water-handling equipment support in Lakeview, Oregon; a $206,846 delivery order from Region 6 (July 6, 2024) for reforestation in Medford, Oregon; and a $186,936 delivery order from the Pacific Southwest Region (September 22, 2023) for reforestation services in Eureka, California.

The vendor holds eight active indefinite-delivery contracts and blanket purchase agreements with a combined ceiling of approximately $3.75 million. Three are held with the National Interagency Fire Center: a $1 million water-handling IDIQ (awarded February 6, 2026, through May 29, 2030) for Region 6; a $250,000 miscellaneous heavy equipment IDIQ (August 5, 2026, through August 5, 2029) also for Region 6; and a $250,000 chipper IDIQ (August 9, 2026, through August 9, 2029) covering Regions 5 and 6. The Forest Service awarded a $500,000 National Type 2 firefighter crews IDIQ (June 15, 2022, through July 1, 2027) covering Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10. An additional $250,000 water-handling VIPR I-BPA with the Forest Service runs through May 29, 2030. Historical IDVs, several of which have expired (including a June 6, 2025 completion date on a $250,000 VIPR I-BPA), reflect sustained engagement across multiple procurement mechanisms.

Activity has remained modest in recent years—two awards in 2024, two in 2025, and six through mid-August 2026—but the award count spans 190 total prime contracts and IDVs since 1991, indicating long-standing federal presence. The combined potential value of $7.4 million across the recent portfolio is slightly offset by $9.1 million in obligated dollars, reflecting drawdowns against existing vehicle ceilings. The vendor's capability portfolio is highly specialized: support activities for forestry account for 69 awards, with reforestation work (forest tree planting PSC) covering 45 awards, fire suppression and presuppression (50 awards), tree thinning (33 awards), and seed collection and production (16 awards) constituting the primary service lines. Place of performance is distributed across western Forest Service regions, with Medford, Oregon; Eureka, California; and Yreka, California appearing as recurring operational sites.
