Sierra Nevada Forest Management LLC

Sierra Nevada Forest Management LLC is a for-profit limited liability company registered in SAM.gov as of March 24, 2021 (with registration expiring December 30, 2025) that specializes in providing forest management and wildland fire suppression services to the U.S. federal government. The company operates across multiple regions, particularly in the Pacific Southwest, and has established itself as a key resource provider for the U.S. Forest Service, delivering both equipment rental and personnel resources to support incident response and forest stewardship operations across national forests in California and beyond.

Sierra Nevada Forest Management has demonstrated extensive experience delivering specialized forest management and wildfire suppression services through numerous prime federal contract awards totaling millions of dollars. The company has provided heavy equipment including skidders, front-end loaders, dozers, feller services, and chippers, along with trained operators and personnel, to support wildfire suppression and forest management activities. Past delivery orders and task orders have been awarded by the U.S. Forest Service's Pacific Southwest Region (Region 5) and Southwestern Region (Region 3), with contract values ranging from approximately $44,000 to over $1.5 million per award. Notably, the company received a significant $3.79 million blanket purchase agreement call for forest stewardship services in Mi-Wuk Village, California, which included both forest product harvesting and comprehensive service components. The company also provided incident support during the 2021 Caldor Fire response with multiple purchase orders totaling approximately $2.13 million for front-end loader and skidder services. All awards to Sierra Nevada Forest Management have been issued on a firm fixed-price basis with no set-aside designations, reflecting the company's status as a capable vendor selected through competitive processes. Additionally, the company has provided services in multiple geographic locations including Clovis, Grass Valley, Mariposa, and Placerville in California, as well as Santa Fe, New Mexico, demonstrating geographic flexibility in service delivery.

Sierra Nevada Forest Management holds seven active federal contract indefinite delivery vehicles that collectively provide approximately $51.25 million in ceiling value. The company maintains a $50 million single-award blanket purchase agreement with the Forest Service's Pacific Southwest Region, awarded in October 2022 and extending through October 2032, which facilitates long-term natural resource management and stewardship projects across 14 California national forests including Eldorado, Inyo, Klamath, Lassen, Mendocino, Modoc, Plumas, Sequoia, Shasta-Trinity, Sierra, Six Rivers, Stanislaus, and Tahoe. Additionally, Sierra Nevada Forest Management holds four VIPR I-BPA (Virtual Incident Procurement Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement) contracts awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center, each valued at $250,000 and designated as small business set-asides with multiple award authority, covering miscellaneous heavy equipment (awarded June 2024, ultimate completion June 2029), chippers for Regions 5 and 6 (awarded May 2024, through May 2029), heavy equipment for west zone Regions 5 and 6 (awarded June 2023, through June 2028), and fallers for west zone Regions 5 and 6 (awarded June 2023, through June 2028). The company also holds two additional indefinite delivery contracts with $250,000 ceilings each: one for miscellaneous heavy equipment across Regions 3, 5, and 6 (awarded June 2021, completed June 2024) and one for heavy equipment including dozers and excavators for Region 5 (awarded June 2021, completed June 2023). Furthermore, Sierra Nevada Forest Management maintains a $7 million blanket purchase agreement awarded by the Forest Service Technology and Development Center in December 2021 for heavy equipment support services for storm and natural disaster recovery in California and Nevada, though this agreement's performance period concluded in November 2023. These IDVs collectively enable Sierra Nevada Forest Management to rapidly mobilize equipment, personnel, and services across multiple forest service regions to support wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, prescribed fire activities, and forest stewardship operations on an as-needed basis.
