About this award
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a delivery order valued at $839,039.82 to Bluesky Helicopters Inc., a small disadvantaged business specializing in aerial firefighting and aviation support services. This firm fixed-price delivery order, issued on August 1, 2025, with completion targeted for December 31, 2029, is issued under Bluesky's $20 million Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with the National Interagency Fire Center for Type III helicopter support services through 2032. The contract carries no small business set-aside designation and will be performed in La Verne, California, where Bluesky maintains its headquarters and operations base.
Bluesky Helicopters delivers specialized rotorcraft capabilities essential to the National Interagency Fire Center's wildland fire management mission, including water and retardant drops, firefighter and equipment transportation, aerial reconnaissance, prescribed burn support, and general fire suppression operations. The contractor competes effectively in open market procurements and consistently operates as a prime contractor, leveraging three significant multi-year IDVs across federal land management agencies—including agreements with the Department of the Interior ($49.5 million through 2027) and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service ($7.5 million through 2025)—to enable rapid mobilization of specialized aviation resources during unpredictable emergency scenarios across the continental United States.
