Nash Contracting, LLC

Nash Contracting, LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Stanfield, Oregon, provides heavy equipment, personnel, and emergency response services for wildland fire suppression and incident management to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor exclusively, holding multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts under the Vendor Inventory for Preparedness Resources (VIPR) Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement framework.

Nash Contracting competes entirely under Total Small Business set-asides across its federal footprint. The vendor's customer base is fully concentrated within the Department of Agriculture Forest Service ecosystem — nine awards from Forest Service direct operations (combined potential value $1 million) and nine awards from the National Interagency Fire Center managing fire suppression and incident response (combined potential value $2.3 million) represent the full portfolio, with additional task orders from Forest Service Regions 6 (Pacific Northwest) and 5 (Pacific Southwest). The top five customer designations in both award-count and potential-value rankings are coterminous; concentration is extreme and narrowly focused on wildfire and emergency management.

Nash Contracting holds eight VIPR I-BPA indefinite delivery contracts, each valued at $250,000, awarded between May 2024 and February 2026 by the National Interagency Fire Center and Forest Service. These vehicles cover miscellaneous heavy equipment with and without water capacity, personnel, equipment deployment, and all-hazard incident response services across Forest Service Regions 3, 5, and 6 (covering Oregon, California, and surrounding western states). The vendor has placed ten task orders totaling $1.2 million under IDC 1204H124T7185, three task orders worth $417 thousand under IDC 1202SB21T7976, and additional task orders under sister vehicles. Representative delivery orders include a $238,896 contract (August 2023, Region 5 Pacific Southwest) for wildland fire and natural resource support, a $193,460 order (July 2024, Region 6) for natural resource management in Oregon and California, and a $19,656 Total Small Business purchase order (April 2026, Forest Service Region 6) for roadway vegetation maintenance on 35.10 miles of road in the Umatilla National Forest near Heppner, Oregon — the latter reflecting a broader land-management scope beyond fire suppression alone.

Recent activity accelerated sharply in 2024, with eleven awards compared to one in 2021 and three in 2023; the vendor received five awards in 2026 through mid-April. Combined potential value across the entire footprint stands at $3.9 million with $1.7 million obligated (43% of potential). Only one award reaches ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. Nash Contracting operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards); no subcontract work is present in the source data. NAICS concentration mirrors the customer base — 23 awards classified under Support Activities for Forestry (natural resources-conservation forest-range fire suppression / presuppression PSC) and one award under Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction.
