Brothers Fire Inc.

Brothers Fire Inc., doing business as Liberty Wildfire, is an SBA-certified HUBZone small business based in Twisp, Washington, that provides specialized wildland firefighting services to the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). The company is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation competing predominantly on small business set-aside vehicles and full-and-open delivery orders, with all 49 recent awards concentrated in NAICS 332612 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC Natural Resources/Conservation Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression.

Liberty Wildfire's service portfolio centers on three core capabilities delivered across multiple Forest Service regions: faller crews (specialized personnel for cutting and tree removal to create firebreaks), water handling equipment (Type 1–6 engines and tactical water tenders), and chipper services for fuel load management. The company holds nine indefinite delivery contracts valued at $250,000 each through the National Interagency Fire Center, all small-business set-asides with firm fixed pricing and extended performance periods through 2030. Representative delivery order work includes a $88,872 delivery order from Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) for comprehensive wildland firefighting services awarded August 31, 2025; a $78,614 delivery order from Region 4 (Intermountain) for wildland firefighting support awarded September 14, 2025; and a $69,874 purchase order from the Idaho Region for a faller module awarded June 1, 2025. The bulk of recent activity consists of task orders issued under the four primary IDCs covering faller services for the East Zone (Regions 1, 2, and 4), faller services for the West Zone (Regions 5 and 6), chipper services for Regions 5 and 6, and water handling equipment for Region 6, each carrying $250,000 ceilings.

Customer concentration is dominated by USDA Forest Service regional and national operations. The top five customers account for 90% of recent awards by count, led by the National Interagency Fire Center (9 awards, $2.3 million combined potential value), Region 6 Pacific Northwest (15 awards, $783 thousand), Region 4 Intermountain (11 awards, $474 thousand), and the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (4 awards, $172 thousand). The potential-value ranking tracks volume closely, with NIFC anchoring most dollars through the nine high-ceiling IDCs while regional delivery orders represent frequent but lower-value task orders. Liberty Wildfire's 21 task orders under IDC 1202SB25T7000 carry $790 thousand combined potential value, while IDC 1204H125T7176 generated 8 task orders valued at $394 thousand, indicating active utilization of the indefinite-delivery vehicles as the primary procurement mechanism.

Activity has grown sharply from four awards in 2024 to 39 in 2025, with six awards received in 2026 through late June. The combined potential value across all 49 awards sits at $4 million, with $1.7 million (44%) obligated as of the snapshot date. Liberty Wildfire competes entirely without subcontractors and does not sub to larger primes, maintaining a pure prime posture on all federal work. The vendor's competitive position rests on HUBZone certification, which enables participation in small-business set-aside solicitations across the nine IDCs and Total Small Business delivery-order competitions at regional Forest Service offices. No non-set-aside work appears in the portfolio — all delivery orders from regional offices are awarded without formal set-aside designations, though the vendor's HUBZone status enhances competitiveness. Place of performance spans western U.S. forest regions including Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, and Arizona, with administrative oversight rooted in the National Interagency Fire Center's regional coordination model.
