TMK Construction & Forestry LLC

TMK Construction & Forestry LLC, a small business based in Florence, Oregon, supplies heavy equipment and construction services for wildland fire suppression and all-hazard incident response to the U.S. Forest Service as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides. The vendor operates entirely within USDA's Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system and holds four active VIPR indefinite-delivery contracts awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center, three of which carry ceilings of $250,000 to $500,000 and run through mid-2030.

TMK's customer footprint concentrates entirely on the Department of Agriculture's forest fire and emergency response operations. The National Interagency Fire Center anchors 4 awards worth $1.5 million combined potential value, while the U.S. Forest Service's Region 6 (Pacific Northwest Region) office issued 2 awards worth $106 thousand. Across the six awards in the source, combined obligated dollars stand at $106 thousand against a combined potential value of $1.6 million, reflecting the early-stage draw-down on multiple-award IDIQs and the compressed performance timelines typical of emergency incident response. The vendor's most recent award—a $4,000 delivery order from USFS Region 6 issued August 14, 2026, for wildland fire suppression support in Sandy, Oregon—was completed the same day under a total small business set-aside. An earlier Region 6 order valued at $102,350, awarded August 26, 2025, and completed September 17, 2025, demonstrates TMK's capability to execute short-duration, fixed-price task orders in Springfield, Oregon. Work is performed at regional USFS dispatch centers in western regions, with equipment and personnel stationed to enable rapid deployment based on incident proximity.

TMK's capability portfolio centers on dozers, excavators, and miscellaneous heavy equipment for prescribed burn work, wildfire suppression, and all-hazard incident response across USFS Regions 5 and 6 (West Zone) and Region 6 (Pacific Northwest only), depending on the specific VIPR I-BPA. The vendor holds USDA Level 2 eAuthentication credentials required for VIPR system participation and rates services for up to 16-hour daily shifts under firm fixed-price terms. Activity is nascent but consistent—three awards in 2025 and three in 2026—with no subcontract footprint and no non-USDA customers in the source data. The vendor operates under a commodity-focused business model serving a narrow, high-frequency federal customer (emergency and prescribed-burn incident response) through a streamlined government procurement channel, positioning it as a regional specialist rather than a broad-based federal contractor.
