About this award
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) awarded a delivery order valued at $1.44M to Bighorn Airways Inc. for fixed-wing smokejumper flight services supporting BLM Alaska Fire Service operations at Fort Wainwright, Alaska. The contract, utilizing a CASA 212 aircraft (tail number N112BH), will operate through November 18, 2025, and employs fixed-price pricing with economic price adjustment provisions. No small business set-aside was applied to this award, reflecting the specialized nature of smokejumper aviation services required for wildland firefighting operations in Alaska's remote environment.
This delivery order is issued under BLM's larger indefinite delivery contract for smokejumper flight services in Alaska and Idaho, valued at $10.8M, which demonstrates the ongoing critical need for Bighorn Airways' specialized aviation capabilities. Bighorn Airways, headquartered in Sheridan, Wyoming, is an established federal aviation contractor with extensive experience supporting multiple agencies including the U.S. Forest Service, National Interagency Fire Center, and Department of Defense through various wildland firefighting and emergency response contracts. The company's diverse aircraft fleet and proven expertise in transporting smokejumpers and conducting aerial operations in challenging western terrain position it as a key provider for federal land management agencies' emergency response missions.
