Wise Nathan, doing business as Nate Wise Construction, is a for-profit sole proprietorship registered in SAM.gov with a primary focus on water handling and support services for emergency and environmental operations. Based in Mariposa, California, the company specializes in providing critical water handling resources and operational support primarily to federal civilian agencies, with a specific emphasis on fire suppression and all-hazard incident response. The company is a small business that has successfully secured federal contracts and indefinite delivery contracts with the U.S. Forest Service, demonstrating its capabilities in specialized field services.

The company has received multiple federal contract awards from the U.S. Forest Service, primarily focused on water handling services and emergency support. These contracts, ranging from $15,951.70 to $32,444.18, are firm fixed-price delivery orders that do not have specific small business set-aside designations. Nate Wise Construction has performed services in locations including Newport Coast, California, and across Forest Service Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10. The contracts involve providing water handling equipment, transportation, lodging, trained personnel, and management support for various emergency response scenarios, with a particular emphasis on fire suppression and incident management.

Wise Nathan holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the National Interagency Fire Center, a component of the Forest Service. These multiple-award, total small business set-aside contracts are structured as Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) under the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system. Each IDC has a ceiling value of $250,000 and covers water handling services for specific regional zones. The contracts enable Nate Wise Construction to supply critical resources such as Type 3 and 6 Engines, Support Water Tenders (Types 1, 2, and 3), and associated equipment and personnel. These IDCs have performance periods through June 2025 and June 2030, respectively, with the potential for annual additions of new contractors or resources, highlighting the company's strategic position in supporting federal emergency response infrastructure.
