8/3/2026- Replaces word versions of Attachements C04c_2a, C04d_3a and C04e_4a (Appendicies A-C) with PDFs. No other corrections. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Part 12. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. Proposals are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation number 12363N26R4014 is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Bitterroot Front G-Z Long Term Integrated Resource Service Contract. The Bitterroot Front Project area spans roughly 145,000 acres across the Stevensville and Darby Ranger Districts, where dense, overstocked mixed?conifer stands and widespread tree mortality have increased susceptibility to insect outbreaks and extreme wildfire behavior. Following a decade of severe fires, the project aims to reduce wildfire risk to nearby communities and restore forest health through treatments such as thinning, harvesting, mechanical fuel reduction, and prescribed burning. These efforts focus on improving stand vigor, promoting fire?adapted species, reducing hazardous fuels, and enhancing safety and effectiveness for wildfire responders. A secondary objective of the long?term contract is to provide a consistent timber supply for local forest products industries, while contractors complete tasks including unit layout, timber cruising, road work, and timber removal as part of a broader strategy to increase the pace and scale of forest restoration. This acquisition is set-aside for small business concerns. The applicable North American Industry Classification Standard Code is 113310 and the small business size standard is 500 Employees This acquisition is a Total Small Business Set-Aside. All responsible sources may submit a quotation which will be considered by the agency. Proposals are to be submitted via email to Mark Phillipp at mark.phillipp@usda.gov and Matt Daigle at matthew.daigle@usda.gov.

GOVBIDFIT SCREENING LENS

What deserves attention before you spend bid time

Decision support

These screening signals are generated from the public notice fields stored for this specific opportunity. They are not eligibility findings or predictions; they are prompts for a faster, more disciplined review of the official solicitation.

Active solicitation stage

This record is in a solicitation stage, so submission instructions, evaluation factors, attachments and amendments should be reviewed before a bid/no-bid decision.

Planning window available

The stored response date leaves more than ten days, but amendments and pre-response milestones can shorten the usable preparation window.

No socioeconomic restriction recorded

The current feed does not show a program-specific set-aside restriction. That does not remove other eligibility, responsibility, registration or solicitation-specific requirements.

Classification signal

NAICS 113310 · PSC F099 is the recorded classification. Use it as a screening clue, then compare the actual scope and deliverables rather than treating the code alone as proof of fit.

Source and trust

GovBidFit is independent and is not a U.S. government website. GovBidFit stores a structured mirror of SAM.gov public opportunity data in its own database and keeps the compact snapshot as a fallback. The official SAM.gov notice remains the controlling source. The official SAM.gov notice controls if anything here differs from the source or a later amendment.
