Wild Fire Services, Inc.

Wild Fire Services, Inc., a Yakima, Washington-based Subchapter S Corporation, serves as a prime contractor delivering wildfire suppression equipment, personnel, and incident management support to federal land management agencies under total small business set-asides and full-and-open competition. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards) and competes predominantly under total small business set-aside designations across its IDV and blanket purchase agreement portfolio, with selective full-and-open delivery orders.

Wild Fire Services' customer concentration is extreme and geographically coherent. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R6 Pacific Northwest Region accounts for 95 awards and $55.6 million of the vendor's $61.5 million combined potential value—92 percent of its award footprint by count. The Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center places a secondary set of 17 awards ($3.4 million), with smaller engagements from Interior's Bureau of Land Management Oregon-Washington (7 awards, $89 thousand) and Idaho Region (5 awards, $116 thousand). This concentration reflects Wild Fire Services' specialization in Pacific Northwest wildland firefighting operations, with work performed across Oregon and Washington national forests and grasslands.

The vendor's capability portfolio is concrete and equipment-centric. Wild Fire Services supplies and operates Type 2 hand crews, Type 3 through Type 6 fire engines, potable and gray water trucks with handwashing stations, chippers, and incident management teams. Representative work includes a $59,984 firm fixed-price delivery order to USDA Forest Service Region 6 for wildfire services in Wenatchee, Washington (September 2026), a $173,526 delivery order to the same region for wildfire response at Pendleton, Oregon (July 2026), and a $135,966 delivery order for incident support in Wenatchee (September 2025). The vendor also provides Type 4 and Type 5 fire engines to the USDA Forest Service Idaho Region through purchase orders valued at $14,521 to $37,341 each (June 2025).

Wild Fire Services holds six named parent contract vehicles, all with the Forest Service or the National Interagency Fire Center. The largest are a $50 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement for Pacific Northwest Stewardship services in Oregon and Washington running through October 2032 (awarded April 2023), and three identical $500,000 indefinite delivery contracts for water handling equipment, potable and gray water trucks, and chipper services across Regions 5 and 6 (awarded February 2026, all set aside for total small business). Three additional $250,000 IDCs for water handling and chipper support carry ultimate completion dates between May 2029 and May 2030. The vendor places task orders against these vehicles on a firm fixed-price basis through the Forest Service's Virtual Incident Procurement system to mobilize resources during fire season and emergency response operations. Awards under the top two parent vehicles (IDC 1202SB22T8172 and IDC 1204H125T7491) total 27 and 24 task orders respectively, with combined potential values of $1.3 million each.

Activity has grown substantially year over year. Wild Fire Services received 9 awards in 2022, 7 in 2023, 17 in 2024, 19 in 2025, and 22 in 2026 through early September—a near-doubling trajectory over the source period. The vendor's $61.5 million combined potential value is offset by relatively low invoiced obligation ($6.2 million, or 10% of potential); this posture is typical for wildfire services contracts structured as on-call or preseason incident purchase agreements where orders spike seasonally during fire emergencies. The source data spans from 2003 to September 2026, indicating Wild Fire Services has maintained an active federal contracting relationship for over two decades, with substantial acceleration in the past three years.

Wild Fire Services competes in a specialized, geographically bound market segment serving Pacific Northwest federal land management. The vendor's total small business set-aside profile and equipment-provisioning model position it as a regional supplier rather than a national integrator; there are no named subcontractors in the award history, and the company operates as a standalone equipment and personnel provider. With 92 percent of awards and dollar value flowing from Forest Service Region 6, recompete risk and opportunity are concentrated in that region's renewal cycles for water handling, chipper, and hand-crew contracts maturing between 2029 and 2032.
