Indefinite Delivery Contract 12024B18D0006

The federal contract IDV award 12024B18D0006 is a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract held by Textron Aviation Inc., a subsidiary of the aerospace and defense conglomerate Textron Inc. The contract, valued at a ceiling of $140,000,000, was awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center, a civilian agency, for the procurement of twin-engine turbine aircraft, specifically the Beechcraft King Air 250 model.

The awarded task orders under this IDV have a total value of over $37 million and cover the purchase of multiple King Air 250 aircraft to replace aging assets, as well as aircraft modifications such as the addition of high-float landing gear and specialized radio equipment. Textron Aviation, as the prime contractor, will deliver the aircraft and perform the modifications from its facilities in Wichita, Kansas. None of the task orders identified were set aside for small businesses, indicating Textron Aviation's status as a large, established federal contractor capable of meeting the National Interagency Fire Center's complex aviation requirements. This IDV and associated task orders are part of the agency's broader King Air 250 major program, which aims to modernize and sustain its fleet of twin-engine turbine aircraft used for wildland fire suppression, emergency response, and other aerial support operations.
