R & R Pipeline, Incorporated

R & R Pipeline, Incorporated, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Santa Paula, California, provides heavy equipment and pipeline restoration services to the Department of Agriculture as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-aside vehicles. The company operates 100% as a prime across nine awards totaling $1.1 million in combined potential value, with all work flowing through Forest Service regions and the National Interagency Fire Center.

R & R Pipeline's service portfolio centers on wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response equipment provisioning, alongside pipeline restoration and rehabilitation work. Recent representative delivery orders include a $79,500 order (August 21, 2025) for pipeline restoration in Solvang, California under the larger VIPR I-BPA; a $90,100 firm fixed-price delivery order (July 27, 2024) for pipeline repair and replacement in Oroville, California; and a $74,200 delivery order (September 11, 2024) for pipeline restoration work. The vendor also holds heavy equipment delivery orders across August and September 2026 ranging from $5,300 to $53,000 for dozers and excavators supporting Forest Service operations in West Zone Regions 5 and 6.

Customer concentration is singular — all nine awards fund Department of Agriculture Forest Service programs. The National Interagency Fire Center dominates potential value with two awards carrying $750 thousand combined value, while Forest Service Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region) accounts for six awards valued at $288 thousand combined. The vendor operates under two parent indefinite delivery contracts: one $500,000 ceiling vehicle awarded February 6, 2026, by the National Interagency Fire Center for heavy equipment in West Zone Regions 5 and 6 through June 11, 2028, and a $250,000 VIPR I-BPA awarded June 11, 2023, also extending through June 2028. Four task orders are placed against the newer $500,000 IDC ($134 thousand combined value), and three against the VIPR I-BPA ($244 thousand combined value).

Activity has accelerated sharply — one award in 2023, two in 2024, one in 2025, and five in 2026 — driven primarily by increased delivery order velocity under the two Forest Service heavy-equipment vehicles. The vendor has obligated $378 thousand (33% of combined potential value) across all awards as of the source snapshot. Work is performed entirely in California, with primary operations centered on Solvang and Oroville. The vendor competes exclusively under total small business set-asides; recent delivery orders carry either total small business or no set-aside designation, indicating discretionary use of the small business authority rather than mandatory set-aside enforcement on all orders.
