About this award

The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a $346,355.68 firm fixed-price delivery order to Helicopter Express LLC on September 16, 2025, for rotary-wing aircraft support services. This delivery order, designated as 0916-092325 N217AC PKG-69488, extends through December 31, 2029, and represents a continuation of the agency's reliance on Helicopter Express for specialized aviation capabilities supporting federal wildland fire management and emergency response operations. The contract was awarded without a set-aside designation, reflecting open competition. Helicopter Express, an Atlanta-based aviation services provider registered with the System for Award Management since 2002, maintains a diverse fleet of Type 1, 2, and 3 helicopters staffed with experienced flight crews capable of executing complex aerial missions.

This delivery order likely derives from one of Helicopter Express's existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract vehicles with the Department of Interior or Forest Service, which total approximately $289.5 million across multiple awards through 2034 for Type 1, 2, and 3 helicopter support services. Through these IDIQ vehicles, the National Interagency Fire Center and affiliated agencies can rapidly procure helicopter support for critical operations including fire suppression, aerial ignition, cargo transport, and disaster relief across federal lands. The firm fixed-price structure and delivery order format enable the agency to obtain specialized rotary-wing services with predetermined costs while maintaining operational flexibility to address dynamic wildland fire management requirements.
