Red Truck Wildfire LLC

Red Truck Wildfire LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Boise, Idaho, supplies wildland firefighting equipment, personnel, and specialized services to the U.S. Forest Service and National Interagency Fire Center as a prime contractor exclusively, operating under the Virtual Incident Procurement system's Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements and firm fixed-price delivery orders. The company competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides on its four core Indefinite Delivery Contracts and under full-and-open competition on task orders drawn from those vehicles, with no subcontract footprint in the federal award base.

Red Truck Wildfire is a sole proprietorship and limited liability company that holds veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned designations. The company's capability portfolio centers on the provision of fire engines (Type 4 and Type 6), water handling equipment and tenders, mobile communications units, helicopter operations support, and trained personnel to support wildfire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed project work across the Western United States. Representative delivery orders include a $103,200 firm fixed-price order from Forest Service Region 4 (Intermountain) for wildfire suppression operations in Venice, Utah (awarded July 15, 2025), a $136,521 delivery order from Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) for wildland firefighting services and equipment (July 22, 2024), and a $125,903 order from Forest Service Region 6 for fire engines and water handling equipment (July 20, 2024). The company also delivers bulk Type 6 engines to the National Interagency Fire Center and Forest Service regional offices; in June 2025, Red Truck Wildfire supplied six Type 6 engines to the Idaho Region at values ranging from $17,200 to $43,000 per unit.

Customer concentration is heavily concentrated within the U.S. Forest Service ecosystem. The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) anchors the portfolio with 55 awards worth $4.1 million combined potential value, followed by Forest Service Region 4 (Intermountain Region) with 42 awards worth $1.8 million, and Forest Service Research Service Rocky Mountain Research Station with 36 awards worth $1.2 million. These three customers account for approximately 82% of awards and 82% of combined potential value. Red Truck Wildfire serves eleven distinct federal customer agencies, but Forest Service and NIFC dominance is decisive — the company has no significant defense or civilian agency work outside the wildfire suppression mission space.

Red Truck Wildfire holds four core Indefinite Delivery Contracts awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center in early 2026 and May 2023, each with a $250,000 ceiling and set aside for total small business. These vehicles procure mobile communications units for Regions 1-6 (National Zone); water handling equipment for East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9; helicopter operations support for Regions 1-6 (National); and vehicle-with-driver services for Region 4 only. The company also operates under five additional IDCs and blanket purchase agreements: IDC 1202SB22T7503 (41 task orders, $1.7 million combined potential value), IDC 1284M819T7111 (36 task orders, $892 thousand), BPA AG84M8B167056 (29 task orders, $1.2 million), IDC 1202SB25T7734 (16 task orders, $676 thousand), and IDC 1284M820T7080 (8 task orders, $97 thousand). These vehicles enable rapid competitive mobilization during wildfire seasons and all-hazard incidents across multiple Forest Service regions.

Activity has grown from 19 awards in 2022 to 24 awards in 2025; through mid-2026, the vendor has received 6 awards already (representing a small slice of the year). Total awards in the source span 193 prime contracts and IDVs with $10.6 million combined potential value and $6.4 million in obligated dollars (60% of potential). Award work concentrates on Primary NAICS 561730 (Support Activities for Forestry — 146 of 193 awards), with secondary NAICS in ground transportation and air support services. Primary PSC coding reflects Natural Resources/Conservation – Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression work (177 awards), with smaller volumes in equipment lease and fire-control equipment categories.

Red Truck Wildfire operates as a pure prime contractor with no sub-award activity; all 193 awards are prime positions. The company holds no teaming relationships or parent-contractor roles in the source data. Recompete exposure is material: delivery orders are task-order structures with short individual performance periods (typically 1-6 weeks), so the vendor faces continuous re-competition against other VIPR-registered small business contractors through the Forest Service's competitive procurement cycles during each wildfire season. The four core IDCs carry ultimate completion dates between May 2028 and May 2030, representing the principal vehicles through which the company will continue to compete for federal wildfire work.
