About this award

This is a federal delivery order contract awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center, a civilian agency, to Bridger Air Tanker LLC, a for-profit limited liability company. The contract is for $854,989.84 and is a firm fixed-price delivery order with a period of performance through June 2, 2025. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, indicating Bridger Air Tanker competed for it in the open market.

Bridger Air Tanker is a specialized aviation company that provides critical aerial firefighting services to federal agencies, primarily the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management. The contract involves deploying Bridger's fleet of air tankers and aerial supervision aircraft to support wildland fire management efforts across the United States, including dropping fire retardant, conducting aerial supervision, and providing command and control operations.

In addition to this specific contract award, Bridger Air Tanker holds two significant indefinite delivery vehicle (IDV) contracts - a $75 million IDV with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service for CWN Water Scooper 2.0 services, and a $400 million IDV with the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management for National Single Engine Air Tanker (SEAT) Flight Services. These IDVs allow federal agencies to quickly issue task orders to Bridger to deploy its aerial firefighting assets as needed to support ongoing wildland fire management.
