VIPR I-BPA for Fuel Tender for the West Zone (Regions 5 & 6)

The U.S. Forest Service is re‑opening solicitation 12569R23Q7001 for Fuel Tenders in the West Zone (Regions 5 & 6) to support local, regional, and nationwide fire‑suppression, all‑hazard incidents, and prescribed‑fire projects. This amendment initiates an “open‑season onboarding” that runs concurrently with the IBPA Annual Review (rollover) process. Existing IBPA awardees may revise rates and add resources, while any new vendors that meet the original solicitation’s eligibility (total small‑business set‑aside with partial SDVOSB, HUBZone, WOSB, and EDWOSB set‑asides) may submit a quote through the VIPR system by 15:00 PST, 03 Mar 2025. All proposals must satisfy the original solicitation’s acceptability pass/fail criteria and will be evaluated using the same factors/sub‑factors as the original award. The resulting IBPA awards will retain the original terms, conditions, and period of performance; successful contractors will be eligible for BPA calls and dispatches under the same ordering procedures as existing agreements. For submission details, access the “Open Solicitations” tab in VIPR (https://apps.fs.usda.gov/vipr/vendor/) and contact Craig Ericson (craig.ericson@usda.gov, 530‑559‑6264) with any questions.
