Wildland Fire Support Services LLC

Wildland Fire Support Services LLC is a small business specializing in prescribed fire training and support services for federal agencies, primarily the U.S. Forest Service. Established in 2013, the company provides a range of customized training, educational materials development, and logistical support for prescribed fire and fuels management programs. As a sole proprietorship, Wildland Fire Support Services leverages its expertise in wildland fire operations to assist federal agencies in improving awareness and operational education on fuels treatments and prescribed fire management.

The company has been awarded numerous federal contracts to provide specialized services to the U.S. Forest Service and related agencies. These contracts include serving as host coordinators and cadre members for the National Interagency Prescribed Fire Training Center (NIPFTC), developing simulation tables for agency administrator workshops, and providing on-site support for prescribed fire training events. Wildland Fire Support Services has also been tasked with coordinating meetings and preparations with designated hosting cooperators, developing educational materials, and assisting with program reviews. Many of these contracts have been set aside for small businesses, with award values ranging from approximately $5,000 to over $135,000 for individual task orders. The company's work spans multiple Forest Service regions and offices, including the Washington Office Acquisitions, Rocky Mountain Research Station, and Region 4.

Wildland Fire Support Services currently holds two significant federal contract vehicles. The first is a single-award, firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract awarded by the USDA Forest Service, Region 4, with a ceiling value of $6.3 million over five years. This contract, awarded in May 2024, provides for a wide range of prescribed fire training services, including planning and conducting customized trainings, developing educational materials, and assisting with agency administrator workshops. The second is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) awarded by the Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station in April 2023, with a potential value of $250,000. This BPA supports the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and allows for the issuance of task orders for training and support to improve awareness and operational education on fuels treatments within the Forest Service. Both contract vehicles enable Wildland Fire Support Services to continue its long-standing work in assisting federal agencies with planning and implementing fuels management programs through tailored training and support services.
