Miscellaneous Forestry Equipment: Forwarder, Front End Loader, Log Loader, Log Processor, Log Truck, Feller Buncher, Skidder

The U.S. Forest Service is planning a recompete solicitation in fiscal year 2029 for a range of miscellaneous forestry equipment including forwarders, front end loaders, log loaders, log processors, log trucks, feller bunchers, and skidders. This procurement will be conducted under a five-year recurrence cycle and will result in the award of Incident Blanket Purchase Agreements to support operational needs across designated zones. The contract is designed to ensure reliable access to specialized forestry machinery essential for forest management, wildfire response, and other critical forestry activities. While no specific solicitation number, set-aside details, or NAICS code are currently available, the initiative is part of the agency’s broader strategy to maintain and modernize its equipment fleet through competitive, long-term agreements. The solicitation will be issued under the Department of Agriculture, with all performance expected to align with national forestry priorities and operational requirements designated by the Forest Service.
