About this IDV

The National Interagency Fire Center, operating under the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to Helicom LLP, a small business concern based in St. Ignatius, Montana, for helicopter operations support services. The contract, valued at $250,000 with a period of performance from May 10, 2024 through May 10, 2029, was established as a firm fixed-price vehicle set aside for total small business concerns. The contract supports Region 13 National Zone helicopter operations, which encompasses the geographic area across Forest Service Regions 1 through 6 and serves as the primary mechanism for procuring on-demand aerial support resources. Services provided include helicopter operations support, mobile communications units, personnel transport, and associated logistical support for wildland fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed project work.

Under this Indefinite Delivery Contract, Helicom LLP has already executed multiple delivery orders, including a $16,876 task order (MTHLF000367 E150) completed in Helena, Montana on July 26, 2024, and a $31,926 delivery order (MTBRF024418 E53) completed in Hamilton, Montana on September 18, 2024. The original solicitation, posted February 7, 2024, sought multiple award blanket purchase agreements for daily helicopter shifts of up to 16 hours, with pricing structured to encompass all personnel, equipment, supplies, and transportation required to support Forest Service and interagency partner operational needs. Evaluation was based on technical qualifications and pricing, with contract awards designed to provide initial one-year base periods with four one-year renewal options, ensuring sustained availability of critical aerial firefighting and support capabilities across the National Zone.
