J & S Logging Co Inc.

J & S Logging Co Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Naches, Washington, provides heavy equipment rentals and forestry services to the U.S. Forest Service as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides, competing on delivery orders and purchase orders issued against multiple-award IDIQ vehicles. The vendor operates exclusively as a small business prime and holds no subcontract footprint.

J & S Logging's capability portfolio centers on equipment rental and personnel deployment for wildland fire suppression, prevention, post-fire remediation, and general land management operations. The company specializes in heavy equipment including bulldozers, excavators, and trucks, along with trained personnel for emergency response activities such as fire break construction and access road development. Representative work includes a $96,543 delivery order from the Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Region, in May 2026 for forestry equipment and services in support of wildland fire suppression (VIPR I-BPA for Heavy Equipment, total small business set-aside); a $108,800 delivery order in August 2025 for equipment rentals and services supporting land management operations in Wenatchee, Washington (VIPR I-BPA, open competition); and a $57,600 delivery order in August 2026 for heavy equipment in Wenatchee, Washington (VIPR I-BPA, total small business set-aside).

Customer concentration is nearly monolithic. The Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6) accounts for 43 of 70 total awards and $1.5 million of combined potential value—61% by count and 42% by dollars. The National Interagency Fire Center, which administers the VIPR I-BPA vehicle, accounts for 8 awards and $1.3 million (19% by dollars). All other customers combined represent 84% of awards but only 14% of combined potential value; the source data reflects activity with the Forest Service Washington Office, the Bureau of Land Management in Oregon-Washington and Idaho, and other regional Forest Service offices.

J & S Logging holds prime position on two primary IDIQ vehicles: an indefinite delivery contract with a $500,000 ceiling awarded February 6, 2026, and designated total small business for heavy equipment in West Zone Regions 5 and 6 (through June 10, 2028); and an indefinite delivery contract with a $250,000 ceiling awarded June 10, 2023, under the VIPR I-BPA for the same geographic scope (through June 10, 2028). The vendor has been awarded 11 task orders against the $500,000 IDV ($456,000 combined potential value) and 10 task orders against the $250,000 IDV ($143,000 combined potential value). Work is performed at multiple locations including Wenatchee and Pendleton, Oregon, with administrative oversight at the vendor's Naches, Washington headquarters.

Activity has remained flat over the past five years—four to five awards annually—with 70 total awards spanning from June 1998 to August 10, 2026. Obligated dollars total $1.4 million against combined potential value of $3.6 million, indicating a 38% obligation rate. The vendor competes predominantly under total small business set-asides on the VIPR I-BPA vehicle but also wins open-competition delivery orders and purchase orders from the Forest Service. Equipment-rental work dominates the category concentration: 56 of 70 awards fall under NAICS 541710 (Support Activities for Forestry), with the remainder spanning highway construction, land rental, and equipment leasing. The top PSC is Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (50 awards).
