Rocky Mountain Fire Company

Rocky Mountain Fire Company, doing business as Rmfc, a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Missoula, Montana, provides wildland fire suppression, prevention, and all-hazard incident response services as a prime contractor to the federal government, competing predominantly full-and-open against other small businesses without reliance on set-aside designations. The vendor has held active SAM registration since 2003 and is classified under NAICS 113210 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC code S—Natural Resources/Conservation, Fire Suppression/Presuppression.

Rmfc's federal business is concentrated entirely within the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The top five customer units account for 75% of awards by count and 87% of combined potential value, led overwhelmingly by the Forest Service Region 1 (Northern Region), which alone represents 50 awards worth $2.7 million combined potential value. The National Interagency Fire Center accounts for 12 awards ($1.2 million), with Regions 5 (Pacific Southwest), 6 (Pacific Northwest), and 4 (Intermountain) each placing smaller volumes across 2024–2026. This concentration reflects the vendor's operational footprint: Rmfc deploys Type 2 firefighter crews (20-person teams), specialized wildland fire engines, water handling equipment, and personnel across Forest Service regions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 across Montana, Idaho, California, Oregon, New Mexico, and Wyoming.

Rmfc holds multiple indefinite-delivery contracts (IDCs) with the Forest Service and National Interagency Fire Center that structure most of its task-order volume. The National Interagency Fire Center awarded two water-handling IDCs with total ceilings of $750,000 (one for $500,000 effective February 6, 2026, through May 30, 2030, and one for $250,000 awarded May 30, 2025, through May 30, 2030, both multiple-award total small business set-asides). The Forest Service awarded a National Type 2 Firefighter Crews IDC valued at $500,000 (effective June 15, 2022, extended through July 1, 2027, also total small business set-aside). Additional legacy IDCs include a $250,000 water-handling vehicle (June 1, 2022, through May 30, 2025). These IDCs generate delivery orders under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system framework using Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs). The top parent vehicles by task-order volume are Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SB22T7514 (27 task orders, $914 thousand), Indefinite Delivery Contract 12034319T7125 (14 task orders, $424 thousand), Blanket Purchase Agreement AG0343B167128 (11 task orders, $484 thousand), and Blanket Purchase Agreement AG0343B137099 (8 task orders, $484 thousand).

Recent representative work spans August 2026 through the vendor's full footprint. On August 28, 2026, Region 1 issued a $32,000 delivery order for firefighter crew deployment to Hamilton, Montana. On August 22, 2026, Region 1 awarded a $48,750 delivery order for Type 2 crews and water-handling services in Dillon, Montana. Rmfc also delivers capital equipment: on June 1, 2025, the Forest Service Idaho Region procured a Type 6 wildland fire engine from Rmfc for $63,000 (completion October 31, 2025). Across the portfolio, delivery orders typically carry completion dates between one and two weeks after award and firm fixed-price structures, reflecting the seasonal and event-driven nature of fire suppression support.

Activity volume has fluctuated year over year—nine awards in 2022, six in 2023, nineteen in 2024, nine in 2025, and five recorded in 2026 to date. Total awards in the source span 113 primes with combined potential value of $6.1 million and combined dollars obligated of $3.9 million (64% realization). Rmfc operates exclusively as a prime; the source contains no subcontract activity. The vendor's federal footprint derives entirely from wildland fire management services and equipment, with no diversification into other agency mission areas or capability sets. IDC performance periods extending through May 30, 2030, provide visibility into sustained customer intent, though annual recompete and renewal cycles are inherent to the VIPR/I-BPA structure.
