This approximately decade old business is a wild land firefighting support firm engaged in contracting heavy equipment to the federal and Oregon state governments including water tenders, dump truckers, excavators, and transport.

Beyond historical performance, the water trucks have the ability to be upgraded to tactical water tenders to increase flexibility as resources. One dump truck is dual purposed and can be used as a dump truck or a water truck with its slip in tank. Second dump truck doubles as a transport for the excavator, this is ideal for getting into tight spots that lowboys may not be able to which allows the resource to stay on fire for longer.

The business is operated seasonally in conjunction with the fire season, which typically runs from July to October in the Pacific Northwest.

The business operates from a .66 acre property offered in conjunction with the sale, which is strategically located near the Oregon/California border which allows flexibility in accepting assignments in a larger service area.

This business could easily bolt-on to an existing construction company to provide a boost to revenue and profit during the fire season, while bringing in a significant amount of equipment that can be used year-round. It would also be a solid foundation for a buyer to step into an incredibly profitable business model and then turn it into a year-round excavation/construction business.

The business is staffed by a roster of twenty operators, with eight consistently taking assignments, as well as ownership. Ownership is engaged in staffing, maintenance and compliance, securing contracts, and dispatch. Ownership spends a minimal amount of time on fire due to qualified, and capable staff. Importantly, VIPR contracts still have four more years before renewal for the water tenders, and the excavator is on a year-to-year contract for the next three years.

Revenue is dependent on the severity of the fire season. The business has generated up to $339k in revenue in a single month and has the ability to generate much more with the current equipment.

The real estate utilized by the business can be purchased for $260,000.
