Mountain View Tree Service LLC

Mountain View Tree Service LLC, operating as Mountain View Resources, is a Salem, Oregon-based small business that supplies tree services and specialized heavy equipment to the USDA Forest Service as a prime contractor, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides on indefinite delivery contracts and delivery orders through the Virtual Incident Procurement system.

The vendor's federal capability portfolio centers on wildland fire suppression and land management support: tree trimming, removal, chipping, and stump grinding delivered across western Forest Service regions, combined with provision of specialized heavy equipment including self-loading chippers, log loaders, water handling vehicles (engines, support water tenders, tactical water tenders), feller bunchers, vibratory rollers, dump trucks, and miscellaneous heavy equipment. Recent representative work includes a $416 thousand delivery order for tree services in Springfield, Oregon (USDA Forest Service Region 6, July 2024); a $303 thousand purchase order for two self-loading chippers to support wildland fire operations (Region 6, August 2024); and a $220 thousand delivery order for tree services in Tumwater, Washington (Region 6, July 2025). Equipment delivery orders frequently carry higher unit values—a $272 thousand purchase order for a self-loading chipper in August 2024 and a $188 thousand purchase order for two log loaders in August 2024 exemplify the vendor's role as an equipment supplier as much as a services provider.

Customer concentration is extreme. The USDA Forest Service R6–Pacific Northwest Region accounts for 91 of 125 total awards (73% of award count) and $8.3 million of $16.4 million combined potential value. The Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center, the contracting entity for standing IDIQs, accounts for 18 awards (14% of count) and $7.3 million in potential value. Together, these two divisions of the Department of Agriculture represent 98% of recent awards and 100% of combined potential value; the vendor has no meaningful diversification outside the Forest Service ecosystem. The vendor holds a single sub-award relationship with Conway Construction Co, a road construction prime, for tree removal, debris chipping, and stump pulling work in January 2024.

Mountain View Tree Service operates on a portfolio of National Interagency Fire Center IDIQs, all total small business set-asides, with multiple vehicles active across fiscal 2023–2026 and running through 2028–2030. The top parent vehicle, IDC 12569R24T7224, carried 32 task orders and $2.7 million in potential value; IDC 1204H124T7184 carried 20 task orders and $2.1 million; and IDC 12569R23T7798 carried 18 task orders and $909 thousand. These are firm fixed-price delivery order vehicles for miscellaneous heavy equipment, chippers, water handling equipment, and heavy equipment task forces covering Regions 1 through 6, with performance periods extending through 2028–2030. The vendor's recent awards (February 2026 onward) show placement on newly recompeted vehicles with $250–750 thousand ceilings covering water handling for Region 6, heavy equipment with water for Regions 3, 5, and 6, heavy equipment task force services for Region 6, miscellaneous heavy equipment for Region 6, chippers for Regions 5 and 6, and equipment for East Zone (Regions 1, 2, and 4). All are firm fixed-price, total small business set-asides through the Virtual Incident Procurement system.

Award activity has grown sharply—four awards in fiscal 2023, 43 in 2024, 38 in 2025, and 40 in 2026 year-to-date. The combined potential value across all 125 recent awards is $16.4 million, with $9.3 million obligated (57% of potential). Nearly all awards carry ultimate completion dates in the September–October 2024–2026 window, creating persistent recompete exposure as new IDIQs are awarded. The vendor's 99% prime rate reflects its position as a direct supplier to the Forest Service rather than a subcontractor to larger primes; the single sub-award is immaterial to portfolio profile.

The SCI dataset captures minimal activity—one FY2024 record at 0.2 FTEs as a named subcontractor—and does not represent the vendor's full federal services footprint. Most of Mountain View Tree Service's awards are goods purchases (equipment) and delivery orders for equipment and tree services below or around the $150 thousand SCI reporting threshold, making the dataset an incomplete view of actual labor utilization and federal revenue.

Mountain View Tree Service competes entirely within the USDA Forest Service's wildland fire and land management procurement ecosystem. The vendor's competitive positioning depends on holding positions on the National Interagency Fire Center's VIPR IDIQs, maintaining proximity to regional dispatch centers for rapid incident response, and executing on small business set-aside vehicles. There is no evidence of work outside the Forest Service, no defense or civilian agency diversification, and no sub-relationships with integrators or larger contractors that would enable expansion beyond the fire suppression and equipment supply niche.
