About this IDV
The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), a civilian agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, has awarded multiple delivery orders under a $200 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Aero-Flite, Inc., a foreign-owned, for-profit aviation services provider. The IDC, titled "Next Generation 2.0 Large Airtanker", enables NIFC to rapidly procure aerial firefighting assets and services to support wildland fire management efforts across the Western United States. Aero-Flite provides a range of specialized aircraft, including large air tankers, water scooping aircraft, air attack platforms, and heavy lift helicopters, through this contract vehicle and other significant federal Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts it holds, such as a $1.44 billion Forest Service Airtanker Services 2023 contract. The delivery orders awarded to date, valued at up to $10.6 million each, are firm-fixed-price contracts that do not have small business set-asides. The contracted services primarily support operations from Boise, Idaho through December 2028.
Aero-Flite's expertise in aerial firefighting and wildland fire management support makes it well-positioned to deliver the critical aviation assets and services needed by NIFC and the U.S. Forest Service to combat wildfires and manage emergency response efforts across federal and state jurisdictions in the Western United States. The flexible, multi-award IDC structure enables NIFC to efficiently acquire these specialized capabilities as needed to address evolving wildfire conditions and operational requirements.
