North Fork Recycling, Inc.

North Fork Recycling, Inc., a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Vancouver, Washington, supplies heavy equipment and specialized mechanic services for federal fire suppression and all-hazard incident response as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides. The firm operates as a Subchapter S corporation and competes 100% of its federal work under small-business reserved vehicles, with no subcontract footprint.

The company's portfolio centers on wildland fire equipment provision and incident response support across U.S. Forest Service Regions 5 and 6 in the Pacific Northwest. Representative work includes delivery orders for heavy equipment (dozers, excavators, skidgines) valued at $51,184.62, $81,250, and $144,365 under the Virtual Incident Procurement I-BPA for Heavy Equipment for West Zone Regions 5 and 6, and purchase orders from the Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region for Type 1 and Type 2 dozers valued at $75,000 and $88,650 respectively. The vendor also holds mechanic-with-service-truck and miscellaneous-equipment IDIQs supporting the same geographic mission. All work carries PSC Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (23 of 27 awards) or Fire Fighting Equipment classifications, with NAICS 238910 (Support Activities for Forestry) dominating the award count.

Customer concentration aligns entirely within two subunits of the Department of Agriculture. The National Interagency Fire Center (11 awards, $4 million combined potential value) anchors the portfolio through multiple-award IDIQs with ceilings ranging from $250,000 to $750,000, while Forest Service Region 6—Pacific Northwest Region (11 awards, $595 thousand) issues delivery orders against those parent vehicles. The Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region accounts for four full-and-open purchase orders worth $200 thousand combined. The vendor holds ten distinct IDIQs awarded between June 2023 and September 2026, with ultimate completion dates spanning through May–September 2030, generating steady task-order flow across the past three years.

Award activity has grown sharply—one award in 2023, three in 2024, eight in 2025, and fifteen in 2026. Combined potential value stands at $4.9 million against $868 thousand obligated to date (18% drawdown). The vendor operates exclusively as a prime; it carries no subcontract relationships. Its pricing posture on all IDIQs is firm fixed price with rates structured on 16-hour daily shifts for equipment and personnel deployment. This set-aside-only, equipment-and-incident-response-specialized footprint with concentrated Pacific Northwest geography creates limited cross-agency or cross-mission leverage outside wildland fire operations.
