Bridger Air Tanker LLC holds two significant indefinite delivery vehicle (IDV) contracts that form the backbone of its federal contracting strategy: a $75 million multiple-award 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 enable federal agencies to quickly and flexibly issue task orders to Bridger Air Tanker for aerial firefighting support across multiple jurisdictions.
