JIM Johnson Logging, Inc.

JIM Johnson Logging, Inc. is a for-profit corporate entity based in Etna, California, specializing in forestry and land management services for federal agencies, particularly the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The company primarily serves Regions 3, 5, and 6 in the western United States, providing comprehensive solutions for wildland fire suppression, emergency incident response, and forest management. Their core capabilities include heavy equipment operation, tree felling, skidding, processing and decking of timber, trucking, and miscellaneous land management services.

The company has consistently secured federal contract awards primarily from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, executing contracts for land rental services, hazard tree felling, equipment provision, and incident response support. Their contract awards have ranged from $17,466 to $3,156,750, covering diverse services such as log loader procurement, incident response support, land rental, and specialized forestry operations. Most of their contracts have been firm fixed-price purchase orders or delivery orders, with no specific set-aside designations. The contracts typically involve providing heavy equipment, operational personnel, and specialized forestry services across California and surrounding western states, with a focus on supporting wildland fire suppression and forest management activities.

JIM Johnson Logging, Inc. holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) and a significant Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with the Forest Service. Their IDCs, awarded through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, are predominantly total small business set-aside vehicles with ceiling values of $250,000 each. These contracts enable the Forest Service to rapidly deploy heavy equipment like feller bunchers, mulchers, skidders, excavators, and vehicles with drivers for emergency incident response. Their most substantial agreement is a $50 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement for stewardship services in the Pacific Southwest Region, valid through October 2032. These IDVs and the BPA demonstrate the company's strategic positioning to provide on-demand equipment and services supporting fire suppression, hazard mitigation, and forest management across western U.S. forest regions.
