VIPR I-BPA for Mechanic with Service Truck - West Zone Regions 5 and 6

The USDA Forest Service West Zone will issue an RFQ for “West Zone Mechanic with Service Truck” resources to support fire‑suppression, all‑hazard incident response, and prescribed‑fire projects in Regions 5 and 6. Awarded contractors must furnish the truck, crane, all required tools, transportation, lodging, and fully managed, supervised, trained and certified personnel who meet the equipment and staffing specifications in Section D.2. Resources may be deployed locally, regionally, or nationally for land‑protection work, and the solicitation will be conducted through the Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) Next Gen System. Offerors must maintain a valid email, a Unique Entity ID, an active SAM registration, and a Login.gov account, and must submit a technical quote—including a unique mechanic identifier, signed resume with certification copies, at least three photographs (mechanic ID, crane on the truck, crane data plate), and any claimed attributes—via the VIPR Vendor Application. Quotes are valid for 130 calendar days, and the solicitation is set‑aside for small businesses unless market research dictates otherwise; vendors meeting multiple socioeconomic categories can receive up to a 10‑point advantage for Dispatch Priority List placement. Only one award per resource category/type will be made nationwide, and all technical documentation must be uploaded by the closing date to be considered for award.
