Leclair Ronda

Leclair Ronda, doing business as Alaskan Cutters, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Plains, Montana, that provides faller services, faller equipment, and vehicle-with-driver support for wildland fire management and incident response operations as a prime contractor exclusively — all 27 awards in the source are prime deliveries under USDA Forest Service Indefinite Delivery Contracts and Blanket Purchase Agreements. The vendor operates entirely within total small business set-asides across its parent vehicle portfolio and competes in PSC 632 (Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression).

Alaskan Cutters' customer footprint is 100% concentrated within the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The National Interagency Fire Center anchors the relationship by potential value: seven awards worth $1.3 million combined potential value covering faller services and vehicle-with-driver IDCs across Forest Service Regions 1, 2, and 4 through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system. The Forest Service Region 1 (Northern Region) drives award count with fifteen awards totaling $516 thousand combined potential value. Region 4 (Intermountain) and Region 8 (Southern Region) account for the remaining four awards. All task orders are firm fixed price, ranging from $6,088 to $21,450, with ultimate completion dates typically within one to three weeks of award—characteristic of rapid-response fire and emergency operations.

The vendor holds four active Indefinite Delivery Contracts, each with a $250,000 ceiling value, all set aside for total small businesses and running through mid-2028: two IDCs awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center on February 6, 2026 (one for faller services covering Regions 1, 2, and 4; one for vehicle-with-driver services for Region 4), and two IDCs awarded by the Forest Service in 2023 (covering the same service categories and regions). Task orders issued against these vehicles constitute the majority of Alaskan Cutters' recent award activity. The vendor also places work under five named Blanket Purchase Agreements, with the highest activity under AG0343B177032 (five task orders, $94 thousand combined potential value). Recent representative work includes a $21,450 delivery order to Region 1 in July 2024 for faller services, a $13,650 delivery order to Region 1 in June 2025 for faller equipment and vehicle-with-driver support, and a $6,233 delivery order to Craigmont, Idaho (Region 1) in June 2026 under total small business set-aside. Activity has been episodic across the award history spanning from 2014 to present—one award in 2021, three in 2023, four in 2024, three in 2025, and three in 2026—reflecting the seasonal and incident-driven nature of wildland fire resource deployment. The vendor has no subcontractor footprint and has not held any federal contract vehicles independently.
