NFES Catalogs

The National Fire Equipment System (NFES) was created to provide standards for fire supplies and equipment as well as an organized method for ordering and stocking those items. The NWCG National Fire Equipment System Catalog, national in scope, reflects the items admitted to the NFES and the cache locations where they are stocked.   Each catalog item has been assigned a unique National Fire Equipment System (NFES) number for identification and ordering purposes.  The NWCG NFES Catalog consists of two parts::

NWCG NFES Catalog - Part 1: Fire Supplies and Equipment, PMS 449-1 (download Inventory/Price Lists):  This portion pertains to incident fire supplies and equipment stocked by and ordered from the National Interagency Support Caches (NISC). Ordering from Part 1 is limited to federal and state agencies via the NISC located within their respective geographic areas. For questions, contact your local NISC .

NWCG NFES Catalog - Part 2: Publications, PMS 449-2  (download Full Catalog):  This document lists the national interagency publications, wildland fire training course materials, and reference materials available through the National Fire Equipment System (NFES) and the Great Basin Incident Supply Cache (GBK) located at the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) in Boise, Idaho. NWCG publications are also available electronically.

Course Coordinators and Lead Instructors should review the appropriate course page in the NWCG Training Catalog for course overview, delivery information, updates, and additional materials.

Questions regarding orders, payments, or returns can be directed to the GBK Supply Office at (208) 387-5104. Detailed Ordering Procedures (including payment, shipping, and return information) are found under the Ordering Procedure accordion on the NWCG NFES Catalog - Part 2: Publications, PMS 449-2 page.  Incomplete orders may not be processed.  For detailed information on Unit of Issue and general NFES guidance, refer to the NWCG NFES Catalog – Part 1: Fire Supplies and Equipment, PMS 449-1.

All catalog item prices are adjusted annually in the spring. Individual item prices may be subject to change without advance notice.

Comments, questions, and recommendations shall be submitted to the appropriate agency program manager assigned to the National Fire Equipment System Subcommittee. View the complete roster.
