The single award IDV has a potential value of $233,335.38 and period of performance through September 2024. Under the IDV, Heloair has received multiple firm fixed price delivery orders to supply aviation services in support of wildfire suppression and response efforts. Orders were awarded from October 2023 through March 2023, with places of performance in Richmond, Virginia. Values ranged from $0.00 to $121,203.32. Services provided included aerial firefighting, transportation of personnel and equipment, aerial reconnaissance, and logistical support. The National Interagency Fire Center utilized the IDV to bolster air resources during peak wildfire seasons. The original solicitation sought Type III helicopters, pilots, and support personnel to administer and protect public lands throughout Region 8. The Forest Service intended to issue multiple BOAs and resolicit every 24 months to incorporate additional vendors. Aircraft could be used for fire, project, law enforcement, and administrative activities in support of interagency partners through cooperative agreements. Competition was limited to contractors within Region 8 states. The IDV and subsequent orders aimed to provide aviation assets critical to the agency's wildland fire management and response programs.
