The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service has awarded Brainerd Helicopters, Inc., doing business as Firehawk Helicopters, a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) to provide call-when-needed helicopter services in support of wildland firefighting and emergency response operations. This multiple award IDV contract has a 48-month base period and up to 6-month option to extend. Under this BOA, Firehawk Helicopters, a veteran-owned small business, will deliver aerial services such as firefighting, prescribed burning, utility operations, aerial construction, and experimental projects from its base in Leesburg, Florida. The Forest Service has issued numerous firm fixed-price delivery orders against this BOA, collectively valued at over $10 million, for Firehawk Helicopters to provide aerial firefighting support including water/retardant drops, air attack, aerial ignition, short-haul transportation, and general aviation services in support of the National Interagency Fire Center's wildland fire management programs. No set-aside designations were used for these competitive task order awards, though Firehawk Helicopters has held other IDCs as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and through small business set-asides.
