VIPR I-BPA for Incident Base Unit for Region 5 ONLY - Pacific Southwest Region

The Department of Agriculture, Forest Service is seeking Small Business (including HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB/EDWOSB) vendors to provide Incident Base Units (IBU) for Region 5 (Pacific Southwest) under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA). The BPA will support local, regional, and nationwide fire‑suppression, all‑hazard, and prescribed‑fire operations and may be used by multiple State and Federal wildland‑fire agencies. Offerors must submit a complete technical quote through the VIPR Vendor Application, including required photographs, VIN/serial numbers, and documentation that demonstrate the equipment meets the operational acceptability criteria outlined in Section D.2. Quotes must be valid for 130 calendar days, and the technical portion will be evaluated on a pass/fail basis; incomplete or non‑conforming submissions will be rejected. The original solicitation (RFQ 12569R25Q7000, issued 03/06/2025) has been cancelled by Amendment 0002 due to solicitation defects and will be re‑issued. The re‑solicitation will retain the same small‑business set‑aside status, the open‑season on‑ramping process for new and existing vendors, and the requirement to meet all acceptability pass/fail criteria. Prospective offerors should monitor SAM for the revised notice and be prepared to provide the detailed technical documentation and pricing required in the VIPR system.
