Yellow Tarp Ems LLC

Yellow Tarp Ems LLC, a Clermont, Florida-based service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB), provides emergency medical services and medical support units to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor under multiple Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open competitive task orders. The company is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business (SDB) and holds SBA certifications as both a veteran-owned small business and SDVOSB through October 11, 2028.

Yellow Tarp Ems LLC operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract work, delivering Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support ambulance services, emergency medical responder personnel (EMT, AEMT, and Paramedic staffing), and Medical Support Units (MESUs) for fire suppression and all-hazard incident response operations. Recent representative work includes a $290,653 firm-fixed-price purchase order from USDA Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) issued July 31, 2026, for Medical Support Unit services in Wenatchee, Washington; a $323,308 purchase order from USDA Forest Service Region 9 (Eastern Region) awarded July 19, 2026, for emergency medical responder personnel and MESU equipment in Duluth, Minnesota; a $304,418 purchase order from USDA Forest Service Region 4 (Intermountain) awarded September 14, 2024, for MESU services at the Red Rock location; and a $146,720 purchase order from USDA Forest Service Region 6 awarded September 3, 2025, for medical support services at Lower Sugarloaf in Wenatchee, Washington.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to USDA Forest Service regional operations. The National Interagency Fire Center, through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) program, anchors the largest share by dollar value ($2 million across five awards), while USDA Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest) dominates by award count (25 awards, $1.4 million combined potential value). Region 4 (Intermountain) and Region 1 (Northern) represent the second and third tiers by volume (13 and 9 awards respectively). The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region accounts for six awards valued at $123 thousand. Together, these top five customer entities represent 94% of awards and 94% of combined potential value. NAICS work is concentrated in Ambulance Services (48 awards) and Support Activities for Forestry (6 awards); PSC coding reflects Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression as the dominant category (53 awards).

Yellow Tarp Ems LLC holds five prime Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center under the VIPR program: three multiple-award IDCs with $250,000 ceilings each (awarded February 6, 2026, May 8, 2025, and May 28, 2024), one with a $500,000 ceiling (February 6, 2026), and one with a $750,000 ceiling (February 6, 2026), all running through May 22–29, 2029. An additional $250,000 ceiling IDIC (Rapid Extraction Module Support—REMS) was awarded July 16, 2026, and extends through July 16, 2029. Task orders under these vehicles are issued regionally across USDA Forest Service regions and account for the bulk of recent work. The top parent vehicle by task-order volume (IDC 12024B24T7073) carries 24 task orders valued at $557 thousand; three other IDCs carry 8, 5, and 4 task orders respectively.

Activity has accelerated year over year—16 awards in 2024, 20 in 2025, and 26 through August 2026. Combined potential value across all 62 awards is $4.8 million, with $2.7 million (57% of potential) already obligated. The set-aside posture is mixed: approximately 41 awards (66%) carry Total Small Business set-asides (delivery orders issued against VIPR IDCs), while approximately 21 awards (34%) were issued as competitive full-and-open purchase orders and delivery orders without set-aside designation. Performance spans multiple geographic regions—Sandy, Baker City, Pendleton, and Lakeview in Oregon; Hamilton, Dillon, and other Montana locations; Price, Monroe, and Jackson in Utah; Delta, Colorado; Wenatchee and other Washington locations; and Duluth, Minnesota—reflecting nationwide deployment capability for fire suppression and emergency incident response operations.
