About this award

This firm fixed-price delivery order, which carries no set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2029, and will be performed at the contractor's facility in Belgrade, Montana. Central Copters will provide helicopter-based support services under one of its two significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts with federal agencies—specifically its $50 million IDC with the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service National Interagency Fire Center for Type 1 Helicopter Support Services through December 31, 2034.
Central Copters' scope of work under this delivery order encompasses aerial firefighting and wildfire suppression services, which may include fire retardant application drops, aerial reconnaissance, air attack supervision, and transportation of fire personnel and equipment across federal lands in the Western United States. The National Interagency Fire Center, a civilian agency jointly operated by the Forest Service and the Department of the Interior, utilizes these helicopter services as part of its broader wildland fire management mission during fire seasons. Founded in 2003 and registered in the System for Award Management, Central Copters has demonstrated its capability through consistent contract performance with federal land management agencies and competes without preferential treatment under set-aside programs.
