About this award

The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), a civilian agency under the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, awarded a $42,898 delivery order to Orbic Air, LLC on December 17, 2025, for Type 1 helicopter support services for wildland fire management operations. The contract, which is not subject to any set-aside designation, is issued under the "Type 1 Helicopter Support Services 2025-2034" indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) vehicle valued at $50 million and extending through December 31, 2034. Work will be performed at Orbic Air's Burbank, California facility, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2029. Orbic Air, a self-certified small disadvantaged business and limited liability company, will perform all contracted work directly without utilizing subcontractors, ensuring full operational control over the critical aviation resources required for fire suppression and emergency response.

This delivery order reflects the NIFC's continued reliance on Orbic Air's specialized aviation capabilities, which the company has demonstrated through sustained performance since 2022. Orbic Air maintains an active federal contracting relationship with NIFC through multiple contract vehicles, including a $5.25 million single-award indefinite delivery contract awarded in May 2022. The firm fixed-price contract structure provides the government with cost certainty while enabling NIFC to rapidly acquire helicopter support services on an as-needed basis to support nationwide wildland fire suppression and emergency response coordination efforts.
