About this award
This delivery order, valued at $68,210.45, was awarded to Ponderosa Aviation Inc., a small business contractor specializing in aerial firefighting and air transportation services. The contract is set aside for total small business and was issued by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) with a completion date of December 31, 2026. Ponderosa Aviation will perform work at its location in Safford, Arizona, using its specialized fleet of aircraft to support federal wildland fire management operations. The fixed-price contract with economic price adjustment pricing reflects the vendor's established capability to deliver critical aviation support services to civilian federal agencies.
This delivery order likely derives from Ponderosa Aviation's larger indefinite delivery vehicle contract with NIFC valued at $193 million and running through December 2033, which authorizes task orders for specialized aerial services including air attack operations, aerial supervision, reconnaissance, and helicopter water bucket work supporting wildland fire management and emergency response. The contractor's extensive portfolio of federal contracts—including agreements with the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management—demonstrates its established operational capacity and reliability in providing mission-critical aerial firefighting support across the western United States.
