Rockies Geographic Area Resource Information
To:
Potential Offerors
The Forest Service, Department
of Interior and Montana Department
of Natural Resources and Conservation
(MT DNRC) issue solicitations
for the following equipment/services
to obtain resources for preseason
incident agreements. Rather than
the agencies setting the price,
this method requires vendors to
compete by providing a price,
as well as personnel and equipment
information for consideration.
In order to receive an preseason
incident agreement for these categories
of equipment or services, vendors
need to respond to the solicitations
when they were issued. Only one
award nationally will be made
for any piece of equipment or
service within a category.

It
is important to note that this information
does not guarantee that you will be
hired. The number, size and complexity
of fires varies by season as does
the need for contract equipment. Additionally,
you should be aware that in most cases
not all types of equipment are needed
for all emergencies. The equipment
that is used/hired is solely dependent
on the nature of the emergency and
the factors (such as terrain, weather,
and safety factors) that exist surrounding
the emergency.
