Mountain West Wild Fire LLC

Mountain West Wild Fire LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged and veteran-owned business based in Graham, Washington, provides wildland firefighting personnel, equipment, and specialized support services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and related federal fire-management agencies as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides and full-and-open delivery orders.

The company operates as a limited liability partnership competing primarily under total small business set-asides on federal wildland fire suppression and hazard fuel reduction work. Mountain West Wild Fire LLC holds five active indefinite delivery contracts issued by the National Interagency Fire Center under the Virtual Incident Procurement system, with combined ceiling values of $1.75 million and ordering periods extending through 2028 and 2029. These IDIQs cover fallers for West Zone Regions 5 and 6 ($500,000 ceiling through June 2028), chippers for Regions 5 and 6 ($500,000 ceiling through May 2029), chippers for Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10 ($250,000 ceiling, expired May 2024), and related wildland firefighting equipment and personnel services. Task orders issued under these vehicles range from roughly $13,000 to $112,000 and deploy faller crews, faller modules, chipper services, and engine crews to support fire line construction, hazard fuel reduction, water handling, and incident management functions across Oregon and Washington.

Recent representative delivery orders include a $113,950 total small business set-aside order from USDA Forest Service Region 6 (July 27, 2026) for wildfire suppression and fire management support in Wenatchee, Washington; a $94,500 set-aside order for the same region (July 31, 2026) for wildland firefighting personnel and equipment in Wenatchee; a $69,362 set-aside order (September 12, 2026) for fire line construction and hazard fuel reduction in Wenatchee; and a $63,800 set-aside order (September 21, 2026) for wildland firefighting services in Sandy, Oregon. The company also received an $85,800 purchase order from the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (June 1, 2025) for a Type 2 chipper, demonstrating minor BLM engagement beyond the primary USDA footprint.

Customer concentration is concentrated within the Department of Agriculture. The USDA Forest Service R6-Pacific Northwest Region accounts for 27 awards worth $1.7 million in combined potential value, while the Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center holds 7 awards worth $2 million, together representing 94 of the 36 total awards across the portfolio. The Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region and a generic Forest Service listing account for the remaining two awards ($128,000 combined). Most recent activity has accelerated year over year, rising from three awards in 2022 to eleven in 2026, reflecting consistent demand for the company's specialized wildland firefighting equipment and personnel capabilities across peak fire season periods.

The vendor's award footprint sits entirely in the Pacific Northwest and northern Great Plains — place of performance locations include Wenatchee, Sandy, Vancouver, Everett, Pendleton, Colville, and Tumwater in Oregon and Washington, plus Boise, Idaho. The company generates roughly $3.8 million in combined potential value across the 36 prime awards in the source data, with $1.5 million obligated to date (40% burn rate). Support Activities for Forestry (NAICS 332311) and Natural Resources/Conservation – Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (PSC code) define the entire category footprint. Mountain West Wild Fire LLC does not subcontract or hold positions on government-wide contract vehicles; all work is issued as delivery orders against its own held IDIQs or as standalone small business set-aside purchase orders and delivery orders from regional Forest Service offices.
