Toiler Forest Contracting, LLC

Toiler Forest Contracting, LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Bruce Crossing, Michigan, provides timber marking, cruising, and volume estimation services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service as a prime contractor exclusively under Total Small Business and full-and-open set-asides on a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement vehicle.

Toiler operates under a $2 million single-award BPA (contract vehicle 12363N24A4000) with the USDA Forest Service Eastern Region (Region 9), awarded October 1, 2023, and running through November 15, 2028. The company's concrete capability is precise tree marking for timber harvests, timber cruising to estimate wood volumes, and preparation of timber sale areas across the Ottawa and Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forests in Michigan and Wisconsin. Representative work includes a $31,155.90 Total Small Business BPA call for timber marking and cruising at the Halfway Potato timber sale area in Ontonagon, Michigan (awarded July 8, 2026, completion November 6, 2026); a $25,506.14 Total Small Business call for marking and cruising 382 acres and 3.3 million board feet at Watersmeet, Michigan (awarded June 24, 2026, completion November 30, 2026); and a $41,898.80 full-and-open call for an estimated 4,000-acre timber marking project in the Ottawa National Forest's South Zone (awarded July 2, 2025, completion November 30, 2025). Under the master BPA, Toiler has received sixteen task orders with combined potential value of $404 thousand, ranging from approximately $10,730 to $41,898.80 per call.

Toiler's customer concentration is absolute: all 34 awards in the source footprint fund USDA Forest Service Eastern Region programs, representing $2.9 million in combined potential value. The vendor competes under Total Small Business set-asides on approximately half of individual task orders; the remainder carry no set-aside designation. Activity has declined year over year from eleven awards in 2022 to three in 2026 (through mid-July); however, this reflects the shift from pre-BPA purchase orders to task-order issuance under the master BPA beginning in October 2023. Four awards carrying combined potential value of $79 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure on those discrete timber sale projects. Toiler has no subcontract footprint in the source data; all work is performed as prime contractor on direct USDA Forest Service engagements.
