About this award
The U.S. Department of the Interior's National Interagency Fire Center awarded a $441,931.75 firm fixed-price delivery order to Bluesky Helicopters Inc., a small disadvantaged business based in La Verne, California, with a completion date of December 31, 2029. This delivery order, issued September 16, 2025, supports the agency's wildland fire management operations through the provision of Type III helicopter services, pilots, and associated support crews. The award carries no small business set-aside designation, indicating Bluesky competed effectively in an open procurement process. This delivery order is funded under Bluesky's $20 million Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with the National Interagency Fire Center for Type III helicopter support services, which extends through 2032 and enables federal agencies to rapidly mobilize specialized aviation assets during unpredictable wildfire events and other emergency scenarios.
Bluesky Helicopters Inc. is an established provider of critical rotorcraft capabilities to federal land management agencies, with a substantial portfolio of aerial firefighting and aviation support contracts. The company's service offerings encompass water and retardant drops, transportation of firefighters and equipment, aerial reconnaissance, prescribed burns, and wildland fire suppression operations across National Forest System lands and other public domains. In addition to its National Interagency Fire Center engagement, Bluesky maintains a $49.5 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Department of the Interior for on-call Type III helicopter services (2022-2027) and a $7.5 million Basic Ordering Agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service for Type III helicopters (through 2025).
