45 Contracting LLC

45 Contracting LLC is a woman-owned small business based in Prairie City, Oregon, specializing in providing equipment and services for federal wildland fire suppression agencies. Registered in SAM.gov since June 25, 2018, the company operates as a for-profit sole proprietorship with a focus on supporting emergency response efforts across western United States regions. The company has established itself as a critical vendor for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service, particularly in supplying water handling equipment, firefighting vehicles, and related operational services.

The company has consistently been awarded federal contracts primarily from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service and the National Interagency Fire Center, with contract values ranging from $2,760 to $120,015. These contracts have predominantly been delivery orders for water tenders, firefighting vehicles, and associated services supporting fire and aviation management programs. The contracts are typically firm fixed price delivery orders and have not utilized specific set-aside designations, though 45 Contracting LLC qualifies as a woman-owned small business. The company's contracts have covered regions including the Pacific Northwest (Regions 3, 5, and 6), with performance locations primarily in Oregon and supporting national wildland fire suppression efforts.

45 Contracting LLC holds four Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs), each valued at $250,000, with ultimate completion dates between 2025 and 2030. These IDCs are designated as total small business set-asides and focus on providing water handling services, heavy equipment with water capabilities, and emergency response resources. The IDCs enable rapid procurement of critical firefighting infrastructure across western U.S. regions, allowing the Forest Service to quickly access equipment, materials, transportation, lodging, and personnel for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response. To date, the company has received approximately $47,790 in task orders under these IDCs, demonstrating its strategic role in supporting national emergency management capabilities.
