About this award
The Department of the Interior awarded a $53.2 million definitive contract to Bell Textron Inc. for three helicopters to support United States Park Police operations on July 22, 2026, under a sole-source procurement justified by operational standardization and pilot training requirements.
The acquisition covers two Bell 412EPX helicopters and one Bell 407GXI helicopter to perform hoist operations, medical evacuation, search and rescue, surveillance, law enforcement support, dignitary protection, and mass casualty operations. The sole-source justification rests on the existing pilot cadre's exclusive training and experience with Bell platforms, eliminating costly transition training to competing platforms. The originating special notice, posted January 29, 2026, applied FAR Part 12 (Commercial Products and Services) and FAR Part 15 (Contracting by Negotiation) procedures.
Place of performance is Fort Worth, TX. The contract carries a firm fixed-price structure with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2028. NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing) and PSC 1520 (Aircraft, Rotary Wing) apply. The Interior Business Center's contracting officer is Melanie Johnson.
