Special Operations Group, Inc.

Special Operations Group, Inc. is a for-profit manufacturer based in Reading, Pennsylvania, specializing in providing equipment, supplies, transportation, lodging, and certified personnel to support federal agencies, particularly the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service. The company focuses primarily on supporting wildland fire and all-hazard incident response operations across multiple geographic regions, with a particular emphasis on delivering mobile sleeper units, trailers, trucks, tractors, and other specialized vehicles designed to aid fire suppression and emergency response efforts.

Through its federal contract awards, Special Operations Group, Inc. has consistently provided critical support to the USDA Forest Service across Regions 3 (Southwestern), 4 (Intermountain), 5 (Pacific Southwest), and 6 (Pacific Northwest). The company's contract awards have ranged from $11,040 to $644,170, predominantly consisting of firm fixed-price delivery orders for equipment and personnel support. These contracts have included mobile sleeper units, trailers, truck and trailer rentals, and certified personnel to support emergency response operations. None of the company's recent federal contract awards have utilized set-aside designations, indicating they compete as a standard for-profit entity in the federal contracting marketplace. The funding has been exclusively from the USDA Forest Service, with no evidence of subcontractor involvement in these prime contract awards.

Special Operations Group, Inc. currently holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDVs) with the USDA Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center. The first IDV, awarded in May 2024, is worth up to $250,000 and covers mobile sleeper units and related equipment across Regions 3, 4, 5, and 6, with a performance period extending through May 16, 2029. The second IDV, originally awarded in June 2021 and focused on the Pacific Southwest Region (Region 5), is also valued at $250,000. These IDVs enable the Forest Service to issue task orders on an as-needed basis, providing the agency with flexible access to critical wildland fire management and emergency response resources. Both IDVs are classified as multiple award contracts with a total small business set-aside designation, though the subsequent task orders issued have not utilized specific small business set-asides.
