Sierra Valley Contractors LLC

Sierra Valley Contractors LLC, a minority-owned, veteran-owned, and Hispanic American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Caballo, New Mexico, operates as a prime contractor delivering wildland fire suppression support, road construction and maintenance, heavy equipment rental and operation, and natural resource management services to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the National Interagency Fire Center. The firm is HUBZone-certified and participates in the SBA 8(a) program, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides across its prime footprint.

Customer concentration is extreme and focused on a single geographic region. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 3 (Southwestern Region) accounts for 86 awards valued at $56.1 million (90% of combined potential value), with the National Interagency Fire Center adding 12 awards worth $3.1 million. The remaining 11 awards, spread across the Forest Service nationally, the International Boundary and Water Commission, and the Army Installation Management Command, total $2.7 million. Sierra Valley's footprint is deeply regional, with performance concentrated in New Mexico and surrounding states across the Southwestern and Rocky Mountain regions.

Sierra Valley holds a landmark $50 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with USDA Forest Service Region 3 running through August 2032 for road maintenance, construction, and disaster recovery services across New Mexico. The firm also sits on six indefinite delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center, each carrying a $250,000 to $500,000 ceiling and extending through 2028 or 2029, providing heavy equipment (feller bunchers, mulchers, road graders, skidders, dozers), potable and gray water trucks with trailer-mounted handwashing stations, and fire suppression support across Regions 3 and 8. Representative work includes a $464,582 total small business set-aside call from the Santa Fe National Forest for road maintenance on National Forest System Roads 83, 83Y, and 200L within the Pecos/Las Vegas Ranger District (awarded September 2023, $282,501 BPA call in December 2025 for 159.9 miles of National Forest System road reconditioning), and a $36,190 total small business set-aside definitive contract for sediment removal and dam maintenance on three stock tanks in Safford, Arizona (awarded June 2023).

The vendor's capability portfolio is heavily specialized in forestry support work. NAICS concentration runs to Support Activities for Forestry (71 awards), Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction (14 awards), and Support Activities for Animal Production (7 awards, reflecting farrier services under small BPA calls). PSC alignment shows Natural Resources/Conservation — Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression as the dominant code (68 awards), followed by road and bridge repair and maintenance work. Activity peaked at 18 awards in 2022 and has moderated to 8 awards per year in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Of the $62 million combined potential value across all 109 prime awards, $6 million has been obligated (10% execution rate), indicating a heavy tail of option periods and future task order availability under the BPA and indefinite delivery vehicles.

Sierra Valley operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract awards in the source. The firm's competitive posture centers on set-asides; virtually all awards carry total small business designation or are awarded without set-aside restrictions to a small business prime. The vendor has served the Forest Service Southwestern Region consistently since at least 2007, establishing deep incumbency in equipment rental, road maintenance, and fire support operations across the region's network of indefinite delivery and BPA vehicles. The $50 million BPA and the six indefinite delivery contracts at the National Interagency Fire Center anchor roughly 86% of the potential value, creating substantial recompete exposure if those vehicles are recompeted or if task order frequency declines.
