Owen Equipment & Truck Repair LLC

Owen Equipment & Truck Repair LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Winnemucca, Nevada, provides water tender equipment, vehicle maintenance, repair, and equipment support services to federal land management agencies as a prime contractor exclusively, with no subcontract work. The company operates across NAICS 541330 (Support Activities for Forestry) and general automotive repair, focusing on wildland firefighting and incident response logistics through the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management.

Owen Equipment holds a diversified IDC portfolio anchored to the Virtual Incident Procurement system. Three indefinite delivery contracts with $250 thousand ceilings each run through May 2030 under total small business set-asides: two covering water handling services across Forest Service East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9 (awarded February 6, 2026, and May 30, 2025), and one covering the same regions through the National Interagency Fire Center. A prior IDC covering Regions 1, 2, 4, 8, and 9 expired May 30, 2025. Task orders against these vehicles represent the core delivery mechanism; the four recorded task orders under Blanket Purchase Agreement INL17PA00110 totaled $25 thousand in combined potential value.

Customer concentration reflects the vendor's specialization. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center leads on potential value ($1.1 million across five awards), followed by the Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management Nevada Region ($536 thousand, seven awards) and the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region ($183 thousand, seven awards), accounting for 100% of the tracked portfolio. Recent purchase orders from June 1, 2025, cluster around Type 2 tender water support for specific incidents—Cottonwood Peak ($48 thousand, two orders), Nevada Interagency Coordination Center ($37.5 thousand), and Adobe Mountain ($16.3 thousand)—all completing October 31, 2025. A September 2022 delivery order covered equipment and truck repair in McCall, Idaho ($28.2 thousand).

Activity accelerated sharply to seven awards in 2025 after years of minimal volume (two awards in 2020, two in 2022), with the recent IDC award in February 2026 extending runway through 2030. The combined potential value across the entire tracked portfolio sits at $2.2 million, with $330 thousand obligated (15% utilization rate), indicating substantial ceiling headroom on existing vehicles. Owen Equipment operates entirely on prime awards with no recorded subcontract presence, positioning it as the direct point of contact for Forest Service and BLM incident response equipment and maintenance procurement.
