Pacific Southwest (PSW) STEWARDSHIP BPA (R5 Multiple Forests)
Pacific Southwest (PSW) STEWARDSHIP BPA (R5)
The U.S. Forest Service is soliciting proposals for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to support land management goals across 18 National Forests in California, including the Angeles, Cleveland, Eldorado, Inyo, Klamath, Lassen, Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU), Los Padres, Mendocino, Modoc, Plumas, San Bernardino, Sequoia, Shasta-Trinity, Sierra, Six Rivers, Stanislaus, and Tahoe. Authorized under the Stewardship Authority of Public Law 108-148, as amended, this requirement is designated as Full and Open competition. The scope involves hazardous fuels and restoration work such as the cutting and removal of sawtimber, non-sawtimber, and biomass, as well as mastication, hand piling, and road maintenance. Services fall under NAICS 115310 for Support Activities for Forestry and PSC F099 for Natural Resources/Conservation- Other.
The solicitation is open and continuous, allowing the government to receive and evaluate proposals for the life of the BPA through a response deadline of January 1, 2027. Multiple awards will be made on an individual National Forest basis to establish a primary vehicle for future call orders, including Integrated Resource Service Contracts (IRSC) and restoration-based service contracts. The performance period for awarded BPAs is 10 years from the date of contract, with options to extend up to 20 years. Work will primarily occur on federal and local agency lands within 150 miles of the specified forest boundaries, though projects may also be performed on private lands when administered by a government entity.
This solicitation (12363N22Q4055) is managed by the USDA Forest Service Stewardship Contracting Branch with a primary place of performance in Quincy, California. Recent amendments have incorporated FAR class deviations to ensure compliance with executive orders issued since January 2025 and updated the Small Business Size Standard for NAICS 115310 to $30 million for future call orders. Documentation associated with this notice includes 11 attachments, such as instructions for proposals, appendix materials, and award notices for previous awardees. Proposals must be submitted via email to the designated Stewardship Acquisition Program officials.

Stewardship Authority: Section 604 (16 USC 6591c) of Public Law 108-148 as amended by Section 8205 of Public Law 113-79, the Agricultural Act of 2014—Grants the U.S. Forest Service (Government) permanent authority to enter into stewardship contracts or agreements to achieve land management goals for the National Forests or public lands that meet local and rural community needs. Section 8205 supersedes the temporary authority granted to the Forest Service (Government) in section 347 of Public Law 105-277, the Omnibus Consolidated and Emergency Appropriations Act, 1999.
Stewardship authorities permit the Government to solicit this requirement as Full and Open competition.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This US Forest Service Stewardship BPA will cover Federal and local agency lands within 150 miles of the boundaries of the Angeles, Cleveland, Eldorado, Inyo, Klamath, Lassen, LTBMU, Los Padres, Mendocino, Modoc, Plumas, San Bernardino, Sequoia, Shasta-Trinity, Sierra, Six Rivers, Stanislaus, and Tahoe National Forest in California. Work may also be accomplished on private lands, but the BPA call will be issued and administered by a government entity.
Multiple awards will be made for this BPA on an individual National Forest basis once the Forest Service has evaluated the technical proposals and pricing submitted in response to the solicitation. Examples of the types of Hazardous Fuels and Restoration work that may be included are cutting and removal of sawtimber, non-sawtimber, and/or biomass; mastication, hand cutting and piling; and road maintenance.
The period of performance of the awarded Blanket Purchase Agreements is 10 years from date of contract with option to extend up to 20 years. This BPA will be the primary means in which future Call Orders issued include: (1) Integrated Resource Service Contract (IRSC) with required timber product removal; (2) Service-based IRSC that includes the option for Timber Subject to Agreement products to be removed when there is no required timber product removal; and (3) Restoration-based Service contract in which no timber product removal is included.
Future Call Orders for specific projects will be emailed to only the Contractors awarded under this BPA. As such, it is imperative that all interested individuals have an email account, and that all firms must be actively registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) to be eligible for award under this solicitation. If not actively registered, the Forest Service will be unable to make a BPA award; thereby, effectively excluding an otherwise successful offeror from receiving a Call Order solicitation. Registration in SAM is a free service. Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) offers resources that are available free of charge at www.aptac-us.org/find-a-ptac/ in order to assist with both SAM registration and in proposal submission.
The Contracting Officer for this BPA is Mark T. Phillipp, National Stewardship Contracting Branch, and can be reached at [email protected].
Offers must be emailed to Mark Phillipp and Matt Daigle for consideration.
