Solutions Made Simple, LLC

Solutions Made Simple, LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business (WOSB) based in Loveland, Colorado, operates as a prime contractor providing helicopter operations support and wildland fire suppression services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, competing exclusively under total small business set-asides. The firm is structured as a limited liability partnership and competes across NAICS 488190 (Other Support Activities for Air Transportation) and PSC R499 (Miscellaneous Professional, Administrative, and Management Support Services).

Solutions Made Simple holds two active indefinite delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) under the USDA Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management division, each with a $250,000 ceiling running through May 10, 2029. Both contracts, awarded in February 2026 and May 2024 respectively, are designated as total small business set-asides and structured as multiple-award vehicles issuing task orders through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) I-BPA program framework. The contracts cover helicopter operations support units for Region 13, encompassing personnel, equipment, supplies, and transportation for wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed burn projects across the National Zone, with daily helicopter operations shifts of up to 16 hours. Recent delivery orders include an $11,068 firm fixed price order from the Forest Service for work in Lincoln, Nebraska (completed March 2026) and a $13,278 delivery order against the COARF000360 indefinite-delivery vehicle for work in Fort Collins, Colorado in July 2023.

Customer concentration is singular: eleven of thirteen awards derive from NIFC, with the remaining two from regional Forest Service offices. Combined potential value across all awards totals $1.1 million, with only $194 thousand obligated to date (18% of potential). Activity is sparse—two awards in 2026, one each in 2024 and 2023, and single awards scattered from 2014 through 2020—indicating episodic engagement rather than sustained volume. Solutions Made Simple operates entirely as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint. The vendor places task orders under a blanket purchase agreement (AG024BB147098) carrying $95 thousand in combined potential value and two indefinite delivery vehicles (12024B19T7054 and 12024B24T7028) carrying $99 thousand and $11 thousand respectively.
