Nu-Way, Inc.

Nu-Way, Inc., doing business as Nu-Way Inc., a Wyoming-based small business, operates as a 100% prime contractor delivering mobile food service units, mobile shower facilities, and comprehensive logistical support for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response operations to the USDA Forest Service and the National Interagency Fire Center. The vendor competes predominantly under total small business set-asides on its parent IDIQs and a minority of full-and-open delivery orders; it does not subcontract and maintains no subcontract footprint.

Nu-Way's customer concentration is extreme and niche. The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) under the Department of Agriculture Forest Service dominates the footprint: 36 awards worth $84.2 million in combined potential value represent 86% of all awards and 84% of total potential value. The remaining customer base includes the Forest Service's regional offices (Pacific Northwest Region 6, Northern Region 1, and Intermountain Region 4) and the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, which collectively add $15.4 million. This concentration reflects Nu-Way's embedded role in federal fire incident logistics rather than portfolio diversification.

The vendor holds two active parent IDCs issued by NIFC: a $15 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract for the National Mobile Food Service Unit program (awarded July 1, 2025, running through December 31, 2029) and a $23.5 million multiple-award IDC for national mobile shower facilities (awarded April 15, 2024, running through December 31, 2028). Across these two vehicles alone, 22 delivery orders carry $8.7 million in combined potential value. Additional delivery orders flow from five named IDVs including Indefinite Delivery Contracts 12024B20T2514 (16 task orders, $6.5 million), 12024B19D0016 (13 task orders, $546 thousand), and 1202SC24T2210 (10 task orders, $826 thousand). Representative recent work includes a $1.37 million delivery order from NIFC for mobile food service unit support to wildland fire suppression operations at Baker City, Oregon (September 2, 2026), a $2.1 million delivery order from Forest Service Region 4 for mobile food service catering in Price, Utah (June 30, 2026), and a $158 thousand delivery order from Forest Service Region 6 for mobile shower facilities and logistical support at Sandy, Oregon (August 6, 2026).

Activity has remained flat year over year, with four to eight awards annually from 2022 through 2026. Of the 91 total prime awards in the source data, 61% of potential value ($61.9 million combined obligated dollars) has already been invoiced, indicating active execution rather than pipeline accumulation. Awards span NAICS categories including Food Service Contractors (34 awards), Support Activities for Forestry (32 awards), and Mobile Food Services (4 awards), with PSC coding concentrated in Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (69 awards) and Housekeeping—Facilities Operations Support (15 awards).

SCI-reported invoicing captures a small slice of Nu-Way's federal activity: $6 million total across FY2022–FY2025, with $1.8 million in FY2022–2023, zero in FY2024, and $2.5 million in FY2025. The SCI dataset shows 7.3 FTEs in FY2022–2023 and 5.9 FTEs in FY2025, with median government-paid rates of approximately $114.98 per hour. Nu-Way performs all work with its own labor; across SCI-reportable prime contracts, the sub-hours share is zero percent. The vendor's actual federal-government footprint is substantially larger than SCI captures—SCI excludes goods contracts (mobile units themselves), micro-purchases, and any work below the $150,000 reporting threshold, which accounts for much of Nu-Way's incident-response delivery orders under its parent IDCs.
