VIPR I-BPA for Off-Highway Vehicles

The USDA Forest Service is issuing a Request for Quotes to establish Blanket Purchase Agreements for Off‑Highway Vehicles (OHV Types 1‑4) to support local, regional, and nationwide fire‑suppression, all‑hazard, and prescribed‑fire projects. Each award will be a simplified‑acquisition‑threshold (SAT) order; the Government may place orders only as emergencies arise, and no order is guaranteed. Contractors must provide fully equipped, certified crews—including all equipment, supplies, transportation, lodging, insurance, taxes, and overhead—so that the resources meet or exceed the standards in Section D.2. Offerors must validate each vehicle (VIN/serial number, weight capacity) and submit a minimum of six technical photographs (data plate and four side views) and supporting documents through the VIPR Next‑Gen Vendor Application. Quotes must be valid for 130 calendar days and include all cost elements required to meet the specifications. The solicitation is a small‑business set‑aside (unrestricted only if market research shows insufficient small‑business participation) and awards up to ten socioeconomic advantage points for vendors meeting multiple categories (e.g., HUBZone, Service‑Disabled Veteran‑Owned, 8(a)). A single OHV may be awarded under multiple resource categories, but only one award per resource type will be made nationally, and the same dispatch center must be selected. An open‑season on‑ramping process is included to ensure adequate resource availability. All technical and socioeconomic information must be submitted by the closing date; incomplete submissions will be ineligible for award.
