Minuteman Ems LLC

Minuteman EMS LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business headquartered in Piedmont, South Dakota, operates as a prime contractor delivering emergency medical services, paramedic and EMT staffing, ambulance services, medical equipment, and rescue vehicle support to federal agencies across the western United States. The vendor competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides and holds SDVOSB and VOSB certifications as a limited liability company structured for profit.

The company's federal footprint centers on the USDA Forest Service across multiple regions. Minuteman EMS holds multiple indefinite-delivery contracts issued by the National Interagency Fire Center through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) program: a $250 thousand emergency medical responder services IDC (Award Date June 27, 2023, completion June 27, 2028), a $250 thousand advanced and basic life support ambulance services IDC (Award Date June 16, 2023, completion June 16, 2028), a $500 thousand emergency medical responder services IDC for Region 13 National (Award Date February 6, 2026, completion June 27, 2028), and a $750 thousand ALS/BLS ambulance services IDC for Region 13 National (Award Date February 6, 2026, completion June 16, 2028). A fifth IDC worth $250 thousand for rapid extraction module support was awarded July 16, 2026 with completion July 16, 2029. These parent vehicles enable Forest Service regions to issue firm-fixed-price delivery orders for emergency medical support as operational needs arise. Representative work includes a $116,375 delivery order to Region 2 (Rocky Mountain Region) in July 2026, a $93,251.28 delivery order to Region 1 (Northern Region) in August 2026, and a $3.1 million definitive contract with the Indian Health Service for emergency medical services at Pine Ridge IHS Hospital and surrounding clinics in South Dakota (Award Date July 29, 2022, completion August 23, 2023).

Customer concentration is pronounced. The top five funding agencies account for 84 percent of award count. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest Region) anchors the relationship, with 69 awards carrying $3.8 million in combined potential value. The Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service, while representing only one award, carries $3.1 million in potential value—the single largest contract by dollar magnitude. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 4 (Intermountain Region) has issued 30 awards worth $2.1 million, and Region 1 (Northern Region) has placed 26 awards totaling $1.1 million. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region has issued 20 awards worth $686 thousand. The National Interagency Fire Center itself has awarded five IDVs totaling $2 million combined potential value.

Activity has grown significantly year over year, from five awards in 2022 to 64 awards in 2024 and 50 awards in 2025, with 41 awards through September 2026. The vendor has issued 191 total awards as of the current snapshot, with combined potential value of $15.1 million and combined obligated dollars of $13.1 million (86 percent realized). Delivery orders under the parent IDCs have ranged from $1,550 to over $522 thousand, with the majority concentrated between $15 thousand and $100 thousand per order. The vendor's award footprint is 100 percent prime contractor work with no subcontract activity recorded in the source data. Minuteman EMS competes exclusively under Total Small Business set-asides across its prime portfolio, with all but a handful of recent awards carrying explicit Total Small Business or small business set-aside designations. Most recent awards, however, carry no set-aside designation, indicating competitive, full-and-open competition on the underlying IDCs once awarded. Performance locations span western U.S. Forest Service regions, the Pacific Northwest (Region 6), Northern (Region 1), Intermountain (Region 4), Rocky Mountain (Region 2), Pacific Southwest (Region 5), and Southwestern (Region 3) regions, with task order work performed in locations including Dillon, Montana; Roseburg, Oregon; Delta, Colorado; Monroe, Utah; Hamilton, Montana; Price, Utah; Lakeview, Oregon; Baker City, Oregon; and Jerome, Idaho. NAICS coding reflects primary service classification as Ambulance Services (NAICS 621910) across the majority of the portfolio, with secondary coding in Support Activities for Forestry and all other miscellaneous ambulatory health care services.
