Planned consolidated replacement of 18 Wildland FireRecreationTimber UTVsATVs at end of the useful lifecycle. Replacements for existing fleet assets.

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service is planning a consolidated procurement to replace 18 utility task vehicles and all-terrain vehicles that have reached the end of their useful lifecycle. This acquisition aims to obtain high-quality machines at quantity discounts that meet specific technical requirements. These assets are critical for supporting wildland firefighting, recreation, and timber activities, providing essential mobility in remote locations. The replacement fleet will be utilized for a variety of mission-critical tasks, including transporting personnel and cargo, extracting injured individuals from firelines or trails, and performing wildland fire ignition operations. When not deployed for firefighting, the vehicles will support patrolling recreational trails and hauling materials for timber and recreation management. This forecast procurement is categorized under NAICS code 441227 and serves as a strategic effort to maintain operational readiness across multiple agency functions.
