Marty Hertler

Marty Hertler, doing business as Marty's Tree Service, is a small-business sole proprietorship based in Selma, Oregon, that provides tree removal, maintenance, chipping, and heavy equipment services (dozers and excavators) to support wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response across the federal government. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor and competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides; all 25 awards in the source footprint are small-business set-aside vehicles.

Marty's Tree Service's customer base is concentrated entirely within the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The vendor holds awards from two distinct Forest Service entities: the R6-Pacific Northwest Region (17 awards, $665 thousand combined potential value) and the Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center (5 awards, $2 million combined potential value). The two rankings diverge meaningfully on dollar concentration — the Interagency Fire Center anchors most of the potential value despite fewer awards — signaling that the center places larger delivery orders and IDIQs while the regional office issues smaller, higher-volume task orders. Two additional Forest Service awards account for $72 thousand, bringing the total to 24 of 25 awards (96% coverage) from Forest Service customers.

Marty's Tree Service holds five primary Indefinite Delivery Contracts awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system. The largest is a $750,000 total small business multiple-award IDC awarded February 6, 2026, for heavy equipment (dozers and excavators) supporting Regions 5 and 6 through June 10, 2028. A $500,000 total small business IDC, also awarded February 6, 2026, covers chipper equipment and crews for Regions 5 and 6 through May 28, 2029. Two additional $250,000 IDCs cover chippers (awarded May 28, 2024, and June 9, 2022) and heavy equipment (awarded June 10, 2023), all running through 2028 or 2029. These vehicles generate a steady flow of delivery orders; representative work includes a $39,990 delivery order for tree services in Lakeview, Oregon, awarded August 19, 2026, a $78,200 order for tree removal in Springfield, Oregon, awarded August 31, 2023, and a $73,920 order for tree removal and maintenance in John Day, Oregon, awarded August 17, 2024. The vendor also works under two regional Forest Service Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA 1204H118T7190 and AG04H1B157241) generating six and four task orders respectively.

Activity has remained modest and episodic — two awards in 2020, one in 2022, two in 2023, four in 2024, and three through August 2026. The combined potential value across all 25 awards stands at $2.8 million, with only $479 thousand obligated (17% of potential). The awards span a date range from July 2008 to August 2026, indicating long-standing Fire Service relationships, though the recent concentration of larger IDCs (February 2026 onward) suggests possible growth in equipment-centric work. All 25 awards carry the Total Small Business set-aside classification and all involve forest-fire and conservation services (NAICS 238910, PSC Y069).
