About this award
The Department of the Interior issued a $4.2 million delivery order to Western Pilot Service Inc. on May 9, 2025, for on-call single engine air tanker flight services supporting wildland fire suppression across the western region, with completion by April 30, 2026.
Western Pilot Service Inc. is a veteran-owned small business (VOSB) and service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) certified through November 24, 2027, operating under total small business set-aside. Place of performance is Phoenix, Arizona, with field operations distributed across western states including Montana, Arizona, New Mexico, and California.
The order is firm fixed price and issued under a single-award indefinite delivery contract with the BLM Idaho Region (ceiling $400 million, running through April 30, 2029) for nationwide SEAT flight services under total small business set-aside. Western Pilot self-performs all flight operations without subcontractor engagement. Recent Service Contract Inventory data reflects year-over-year decline in invoiced activity (FY2024: $20.3 million across 25.1 FTEs, down from FY2023: $21.7 million across 37.1 FTEs), consistent with the seasonal and task-order-driven nature of fire suppression contracting. Median government-paid hourly rates for the company's federal services contracts run approximately $281.86 per hour.
