About this award

The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a delivery order valued at $371,862.55 to Helicopter Express LLC on September 1, 2025, for rotary-wing aircraft services supporting federal wildland fire management and emergency response operations. This firm-fixed-price delivery order, which extends through December 31, 2029, was issued without a set-aside designation, reflecting Helicopter Express's competitive standing in open federal procurement. Helicopter Express, an Atlanta-based aviation services provider registered in SAM.gov since 2002, specializes in providing Type 1, 2, and 3 helicopter support and experienced flight crews to civilian federal agencies including the National Interagency Fire Center, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Department of the Interior entities.

This delivery order likely derives from one of Helicopter Express's existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract vehicles, which include a $50 million multiple-award contract for Type 1 Helicopter Support Services through 2034, a $50 million contract for Type 2 services through 2033, and a $140 million contract for Type 3 services through 2032. These framework agreements enable the National Interagency Fire Center and other federal agencies to rapidly issue task orders for critical aviation support encompassing fire suppression, aerial ignition, cargo transport, disaster relief, and monitoring operations. The contractor's performance under these vehicles demonstrates its established capability to execute complex aerial missions across federal lands in support of natural resource protection and emergency management missions.
