Wyeast Forestry Management, LLC

Wyeast Forestry Management, LLC, headquartered in Hood River, Oregon, provides forestry management services, specialized heavy equipment, and skilled personnel to the USDA Forest Service and the National Interagency Fire Center as a prime contractor across 332 federal awards totaling $46.2 million in combined potential value. The company is a small business limited liability partnership that competes predominantly under total small business set-asides, holding multiple Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements (I-BPAs) through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) system.

Wyeast's customer base is heavily concentrated within the Forest Service ecosystem. The top five customers by award count account for 93 percent of awards, with the USDA Forest Service Region 6 Pacific Northwest Region dominating at 205 awards valued at $13.3 million combined potential value, followed by the National Interagency Fire Center at 56 awards worth $26.4 million. By dollar volume, the split inverts: the Interagency Fire Center anchors 57 percent of combined potential value at $26.4 million, while Region 6 holds 29 percent. The company also serves Forest Service Regions 3, 4, and 5, the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs through VIPR contracts that allow optional use by interagency cooperators.

Wyeast's capability footprint centers on wildland fire suppression, vegetation management, and forest stewardship. The company supplies specialized heavy equipment including excavators, skidders, feller bunchers, chippers, log trucks, water trucks, and gray-water handling trailers, along with trained personnel—equipment operators, fallers, and technicians—capable of rapid deployment for emergency wildfire suppression and prescribed project work. Representative delivery orders include a $420,264.50 firm fixed-price order from Forest Service Region 6 (August 15, 2026, Sandy, Oregon) for forestry management services and equipment; a $391,240 delivery order from Region 6 (July 21, 2024) for wildfire suppression support; and a $203,592 order from Region 5 Pacific Southwest (August 24, 2023) for specialized forestry services.

Wyeast holds a substantial portfolio of active VIPR IDVs, all set aside for small business and awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center. These include multiple $250,000 to $750,000 ceiling contracts for miscellaneous heavy equipment, water handling equipment, heavy equipment task forces, chippers, fallers, and potable/gray water trailers serving Forest Service Regions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, with performance periods extending through 2029 and 2030. A $7.5 million incident blanket purchase agreement for portable toilets and handwashing stations nationwide (May 1, 2025 through June 30, 2027) diversifies the portfolio beyond equipment-focused work. The top parent vehicles by task-order count are IDCs 1204H124T7331 (30 task orders, $3 million), 1204H118T7156 (28 task orders, $1.4 million), and 1202SB21T7943 (25 task orders, $1.9 million).

The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data.
