K97 LLC

K97 LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Washington, Utah, holds three Total Small Business set-aside indefinite-delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), all awarded in August 2026, to supply vehicles with drivers, off-highway vehicles, and water-handling equipment for wildfire suppression operations in NIFC Regions 5 and 6. The firm operates exclusively as a prime contractor on these awards and competes entirely within the small-business set-aside category.

The vendor's federal footprint is nascent and geographically focused. All three awards derive from a single customer — the National Interagency Fire Center, a bureau of the Department of Agriculture Forest Service — and carry a combined potential value of $750 thousand across the portfolio. Each contract is a firm fixed-price indefinite-delivery vehicle with ceilings of $250 thousand and performance periods extending through 2030 or 2031. The three contracts span distinct NIFC procurement lines: vehicle with driver services for Regions 5 and 6 (West Zone), off-highway vehicles (also serving Regions 5 and 6), and water-handling equipment for Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region). NAICS coding across the three awards reflects the operational scope — Support Activities for Forestry, All Other Transit and Ground Passenger Transportation, and Truck, Utility Trailer, and RV Rental and Leasing — with all three classified under PSC Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression.

K97 LLC has no prior federal contract experience reflected in the source and no subcontract awards. The three awards represent the vendor's entry into the federal fire-suppression support market and create a recompete exposure window spanning 2030 to 2031 as the contracts approach ultimate completion.
