This Firm Fixed Price delivery order is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and represents work performed at the company's Missoula, Montana facility.

Neptune Aviation Services is a woman-owned small business with over 25 years of experience operating the largest privately-owned fleet of large airtankers in the nation. The company provides comprehensive aerial firefighting and aviation maintenance services to federal agencies including the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and NIFC, with service offerings spanning exclusive-use airtanker operations, aircraft maintenance and inspections, aerial fire retardant drops, smokejumper and cargo transport, and specialized aircraft modifications. The delivery order represents part of the company's ongoing critical support to federal emergency response infrastructure, with Neptune maintaining two primary Indefinite Delivery contracts—a $48.09 million NIFC award through 2033 and a $16 million Bureau of Land Management award through April 2029—that position it as an essential provider of on-demand aerial firefighting and aviation support capabilities.
