Tyler Hensche

Tyler Hensche, doing business as TH Equipment Services, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Ventura, California, that provides vehicle and driver services for federal wildfire suppression and emergency response operations as a prime contractor exclusively. All three recent awards span the period from May 2025 to February 2026 and fall under the All Other Transit and Ground Passenger Transportation NAICS category (741210) and the Natural Resources/Conservation — Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression PSC code.

The vendor's customer footprint is entirely consolidated within the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service. Two indefinite delivery contracts worth $500 thousand combined potential value sit with the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) for vehicle and driver services supporting Regions 5 and 6 in the West Zone. The first IDC, awarded May 17, 2025, with a $250 thousand ceiling and a firm fixed-price, total small business set-aside designation, runs through May 17, 2030. The second IDC, awarded February 6, 2026, carries an identical $250 thousand ceiling and term through May 16, 2030, also with a total small business set-aside. A single delivery order issued August 5, 2025, against the May 2025 USDA IDC vehicle-with-driver BPA generated $11,049.77 in award value for performance in Solvang, California, completed August 12, 2025. The vendor has obligated only $11 thousand of its $511 thousand combined potential value across all awards to date, indicating that the NIFC BPAs remain largely untapped for task orders. Activity is minimal and nascent — two awards in 2025, one in 2026 — with no subcontract footprint. The vendor operates exclusively under small business set-asides on a single contracting vehicle, the NIFC vehicle-and-driver BPA, making future federal revenue dependent on NIFC task order volume and contract recompete at the five-year mark in 2030 and 2031.
