Nordstrom Vegetation LLC

Nordstrom Vegetation LLC, doing business as Nord-Veg, is a for-profit limited liability company based in Redmond, Oregon that delivers forest restoration and vegetation management services to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor under Total Small Business set-asides, with 100% of its recent prime footprint (53 awards totaling $71.3 million in combined potential value) reserved for small businesses. The vendor specializes in mechanical fuels reduction, mastication, thinning, brush mowing, grapple piling, and wildfire-suppression-support work across the Pacific Northwest and Northern regions, with place of performance concentrated in Oregon (Bend, Redmond, Pendleton, Ukiah, and Prineville).

Nord-Veg's customer base is heavily concentrated in USDA Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest), which accounts for 38 awards valued at $19.3 million in combined potential value — roughly 92% of award count and 27% of total combined value. The second-largest customer by dollar magnitude is the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions, which holds two awards valued at $50.2 million combined: a Land Management Integrated Resources (LMIR) BPA with a $50 million ceiling awarded June 22, 2026, and a smaller award. The National Interagency Fire Center, also within USDA, accounts for four awards valued at $1.5 million. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region and USDA Forest Service Region 1 (Northern) each account for small volumes. Recent representative work includes a $438,985 firm fixed-price delivery order from Region 6 for the Ten Cent Mechanical Fuels task order (awarded June 8, 2022, completion September 30, 2025), a $216,247 BPA call for lupine pre-commercial thinning, buck, and grapple/hand piling in central Oregon under the Central Oregon Restoration Project (CORP) BPA (awarded October 1, 2025), a $156,973 site-preparation task for brush mastication and road brushing on the Deschutes National Forest (awarded March 11, 2026), and a $50,340 delivery order from the Forest Service for vegetation work in Fossil, Oregon (awarded September 11, 2026).

Nord-Veg holds six federal contract vehicles: the Land Management Integrated Resources (LMIR) BPA from USDA Acquisitions ($50 million ceiling, multiple award, through March 6, 2033); two Indefinite Delivery Contracts from the National Interagency Fire Center for heavy equipment in west zone regions 5 and 6 ($500,000 ceiling each, through May 20 and May 28, 2029); two additional NIFC I-BPAs for miscellaneous heavy equipment in Region 6 only ($250,000 ceilings each, through May 28 and May 20, 2029); and a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement from Region 6 for mechanical and hand thinning across Wallowa-Whitman and Umatilla National Forests ($4,999,999 ceiling, through May 30, 2027). Task-order activity under active vehicles clusters within five parent IDCs and BPAs: Indefinite Delivery Contract 1204H124T7189 (9 task orders, $507 thousand), IDC 1204M318D0013 (9 task orders, $1.6 million), BPA 1204N020A0059 (8 task orders, $1.2 million), BPA AG04GGB149398 (4 task orders, $797 thousand), and IDC AG04M3C140027 (2 task orders, $66 thousand). Work is categorized primarily under NAICS 541710 (Support Activities for Forestry) with secondary activity under site preparation and landscaping.

Award volume has grown sharply since 2023. The vendor recorded 1 award in 2023, 11 in 2024, 3 in 2025, and 7 in 2026 through mid-September, reflecting accelerating deployment of existing vehicles. Obligated dollars stand at $4.8 million (7% of combined potential value), indicating that the majority of ceiling capacity remains unexercised. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal — four awards valued at $685 thousand carry completion dates within that window, with no major vehicle expiration cliff present. The vendor operates with no subcontract footprint and no participation in defense or civilian agency work outside USDA and DOI natural resources portfolios.
