Pacific NW Forest Inc.

Pacific NW Forest Inc., a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Medford, Oregon, delivers wildland firefighting, reforestation, and forest management services to the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor exclusively — the vendor holds no subcontract awards in the source data. The company competes full-and-open and under total small business set-asides across its federal footprint, with no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other restricted set-aside designations evident in the award record.

Pacific NW Forest Inc.'s capability portfolio centers on Type 2 firefighter crew deployment, water handling for wildland fire suppression, forest reforestation and timber stand improvement, and natural resource management across the Pacific Northwest and Pacific Southwest regions. The vendor holds three active IDCs with the Forest Service: a $7.5 million single-award IDC awarded April 17, 2026, under the Great American Outdoors Act for reforestation services in Region 5 (Pacific Southwest) through April 2031; a $500,000 multiple-award IDC awarded June 15, 2022, for Type 2 firefighter crews across Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10, extended through July 1, 2027; and a $250,000 multiple-award IDC for water handling services in the West Zone (Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10) awarded June 10, 2022, with ultimate completion June 6, 2025. Representative delivery orders include a $52.8 thousand purchase order from Forest Service Idaho Region on June 1, 2025, for a Type 6 engine under the VIPR Rail Ridge contract, an $82.1 thousand delivery order from Region 6 on April 30, 2024, for forestry and fire suppression services in Lakeview, Oregon, and a $47.6 thousand delivery order from Region 5 on August 20, 2023, for fire suppression services in Eureka, California.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Forest Service. The top two funding sources account for 100% of recent awards: Forest Service Region 5 (Pacific Southwest) at $7.5 million across two awards and Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) at $558 thousand across seven awards. The potential-value rankings diverge sharply — Region 5's single $7.5 million reforestation IDC dominates the dollar total, while Region 6 drives volume with smaller delivery orders. The Forest Service nationally and the National Interagency Fire Center provide another $792 thousand combined across five awards. The Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region contributed one award for $53 thousand.

Activity is sparse and declining. The vendor recorded one award in 2025 and one in 2026, following two awards each in 2023 and 2024, and three in 2022. Combined potential value across all fifteen awards is $9 million; combined obligated dollars total $451 thousand, representing only 5% of potential value, indicating most awards remain in unfunded IDC ceiling status. The vendor places task orders under two primary IDVs: IDC 1202SB22T8252 with five orders worth $262 thousand and IDC 1204H119T7397 with five orders worth $137 thousand. The $7.5 million reforestation IDC awarded in April 2026 carries a five-year performance period through 2031, representing the largest committed value in the portfolio.
