Price, John has consistently secured federal contract awards from the U.S. Forest Service, primarily providing heavy equipment such as dozers and excavators along with comprehensive support services. These contracts include delivering transport vehicles, materials, lodging, and certified operators to support wildland fire suppression efforts in Forest Service Regions 5 and 6. The company's contract awards, ranging from $29,879.25 to $64,000.00, are typically firm-fixed-price delivery orders that are not set aside for specific business categories, despite the firm's multiple designated business types. The contracts consistently focus on emergency response and fire management resources, demonstrating the company's specialized expertise in providing critical equipment and personnel for national fire suppression and all-hazard incident management.

The company holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contracts with the U.S. Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center, each with a maximum value of $250,000. These multiple-award IDVs are specifically set aside for total small business participation and cover heavy equipment dispatch for Forest Service Regions 5 and 6. The contracts, established through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system, allow for competitive task order awards based on factors like resource location and best value to the government. These IDVs enable Price, John to provide rapid acquisition of heavy equipment and related resources, with task orders potentially covering equipment, materials, transportation, lodging, and personnel for local, regional, and nationwide fire suppression and all-hazard incident responses.
