VIPR I-BPA for Crew Carrier Bus for Region 13 - National

The U.S. Forest Service is re‑opening solicitation 12024B23Q7000 for Crew Carrier Buses used in local, regional, and nationwide fire‑suppression and all‑hazard incidents. This amendment initiates an open‑season “Onboarding” period that coincides with the annual IBPA rollover review. Both current IBPA awardees and new qualified small‑business contractors may submit quotes to revise rates, add resources, or enter the multiple‑award Blanket Purchase Agreement. All proposals must be entered through the VIPR system by 20:00 MST on 02 Mar 2025 and must satisfy the original solicitation’s acceptability pass/fail criteria, evaluation factors, and terms and conditions—including the period of performance. The award will remain a 100 % Small Business Set‑Aside (FAR 19.5) under NAICS 115310. The onboarding process is an amendment, not a new procurement; therefore, the Government expects minimal changes to evaluation factors or contract terms. Successful contractors will be eligible for BPA calls and dispatches under the same ordering procedures as the original agreement. Questions may be directed to the point of contact, Jennifer Travis (970‑373‑7170, jennifer.travis@usda.gov).
