About this award
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a $533,210 firm fixed-price delivery order to Bridger Air Tanker LLC, a specialized aviation contractor based in Belgrade, Montana, under a Total Small Business set-aside designation. This delivery order, designated 0223-022826 N419BT PKG-70492, is scheduled for completion by September 30, 2026, and falls under one of the company's existing indefinite delivery vehicle contracts that form the foundation of its federal contracting portfolio. Bridger Air Tanker operates a fleet of air tankers and aerial supervision aircraft that provide critical firefighting support to federal land management agencies, including the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management.
This delivery order represents a continuation of Bridger Air Tanker's substantial role in the nation's wildland fire management infrastructure. The company holds two major indefinite delivery vehicles totaling over $475 million in potential contract value: a $75 million contract with the Forest Service for the CWN Water Scooper 2.0 program and a $400 million contract with the Bureau of Land Management for National Single Engine Air Tanker Flight Services. These contracts enable federal agencies to rapidly deploy specialized aerial firefighting assets in response to wildfire incidents, with services including air tanker flights for fire retardant delivery, aerial supervision operations, and command and control support during active suppression efforts.
