Nathan Bean

Nathan Bean Coosa Wildland Fire Co Division is a small business sole proprietorship specializing in water handling equipment and services for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response. Registered in SAM.gov since December 2021 and operating as a for-profit organization, the company provides critical support to federal agencies engaged in emergency response and fire management operations. While specific details about the company's founding or leadership are not provided, the vendor has established a significant presence in supporting federal wildland firefighting efforts across multiple U.S. Forest Service regions.

The company has been awarded multiple federal contracts focused on providing water handling resources to support firefighting and emergency incident management. These contracts have been primarily issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior and U.S. Forest Service, specifically targeting the Rocky Mountain Region and other Forest Service regions including Regions 1, 2, 4, 8, and 9. The contracts are typically firm fixed-price delivery orders with values ranging from approximately $9,000 to $48,772, involving the provision of specialized water handling equipment and on-site services. None of the recent contract awards were designated under specific small business set-aside programs, though the underlying Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was a total small business set-aside.

Nathan Bean holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the USDA Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center, which serves as the primary vehicle for its federal contract work. This multiple-award IDC, established through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, has a ceiling value of $250,000 and runs through June 1, 2025. The contract enables the company to provide on-call water handling resources for emergency incidents across specified Forest Service regions. Task orders under this IDC have been issued for specific incidents, with values typically ranging between $8,999 and $18,900, demonstrating the company's ability to rapidly deploy water handling equipment and services in support of wildland fire suppression and all-hazard emergency response efforts.
