Stafford Reload, Inc.

Stafford Reload, Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Sweet Home, Oregon, supplies ammunition reloading services and heavy equipment support to the USDA Forest Service as a prime contractor on 100% of its federal awards, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides on indefinite delivery contracts and delivery orders.

The company's capability footprint centers on ammunition reloading for wildland firefighting operations and miscellaneous heavy equipment rental and logistics support to federal land management agencies. Recent representative awards include a $260,921.62 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) for forwarder equipment and related services awarded August 1, 2024; a $181,800.00 delivery order for ammunition reloading services under an IDC with the National Interagency Fire Center awarded September 2, 2025; and an $87,100.00 Total Small Business set-aside delivery order from Region 6 for specialized ammunition reloading support awarded August 8, 2026, with place of performance in Lakeview, Oregon.

Customer concentration is extreme and narrow. The USDA Forest Service and its sub-offices account for 100% of awards across three customer segments: the National Interagency Fire Center (9 awards, $3.3 million combined potential value), Region 6–Pacific Northwest (17 awards, $1.4 million), and Region 5–Pacific Southwest (2 awards, $172 thousand). This concentration reflects Stafford Reload's specialized role as a narrow-gauge supplier of munitions reloading capabilities during peak wildfire seasons in the western United States.

Stafford Reload holds nine active indefinite delivery contracts awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center on February 6, 2026, and earlier dates. These IDCs carry total small business set-aside designations, ceiling values ranging from $250,000 to $500,000, and performance spans running through 2029 and 2030 across Forest Service Regions 3, 5, and 6. The two largest parent vehicles by task-order count are an IDC (1204H124T7287) with 11 delivery orders totaling $893 thousand and an earlier IDC (1202SB22T8322) with 3 delivery orders totaling $200 thousand. The company's award portfolio is almost entirely PSC Natural Resources/Conservation–Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression (25 of 28 awards).

Activity grew sharply from 5 awards in 2022 to 10 in 2024, then moderated to 7 in 2025 and 5 in 2026, reflecting seasonal contracting patterns around wildfire response cycles. Combined potential value across all 28 awards totals $4.9 million, with $1.5 million obligated to date (32% of potential). The company has no subcontract footprint and operates exclusively as a prime contractor. The vendor's early SAM registration was February 2021; the source data spans June 2022 through August 2026.
