Sierra J7 Forestry Services LLC

Sierra J7 Forestry Services LLC, doing business as J7 Forestry, is a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business registered as a Hispanic American owned limited liability company. Based on the federal award data provided, J7 Forestry specializes in providing vegetation management services to government agencies, particularly the USDA Forest Service.

Through multiple prime contract awards from the Forest Service's Southern Region, J7 Forestry has performed a range of land management activities across national forests in North Carolina. These include manual site preparation services like slashdown and stump spraying with herbicides, as well as crown touch release using hand tools and streamline release applying herbicides. The contract descriptions indicate J7 Forestry operates in areas like the Grandfather Ranger District of the Pisgah National Forest, working on acreages ranging from 44 to 210 acres for vegetation treatment projects. All of the awarded contracts have been designated as total small business set-asides issued against the agency's BPA vehicle for these types of services.

In 2022, J7 Forestry was awarded a $10 million Blanket Purchase Agreement by the USDA Forest Service Southern Region to provide vegetation management services across multiple national forests in North Carolina over the next five years. This multiple-award BPA enables the Forest Service to issue competitive calls to J7 Forestry for specific projects requiring timber stand improvement, manual site preparation, tree planting, and mechanical/chemical vegetation treatments outlined in the BPA's scope of work. By securing this long-term BPA contract vehicle, J7 Forestry has positioned itself as an approved vendor to receive future calls for sustainable forestry and land stewardship activities supporting the agency's management objectives in the region.
