This federal contract IDV award is held by Helicopter Express LLC, a limited liability company based in Atlanta, Georgia, to provide rotary-wing aircraft and associated aviation services to support wildland fire management and natural resource programs for the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and other Interior Department agencies. The contract, valued at up to $25 million, is a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicle that runs through January 2025. It enables the National Interagency Fire Center, a civilian agency, to rapidly issue firm fixed-price delivery orders for Helicopter Express to supply Type 1, 2, and 3 helicopters, along with flight crews and related support, for fire suppression, aerial ignition, law enforcement, wildlife surveys, and other natural resource management missions across federal lands. The contract has no set-aside designation, reflecting Helicopter Express's status as an experienced federal contractor in the specialized aviation services sector. Task orders issued to date have ranged from $584,000 to over $1.5 million for the provision of Bell 407 HP helicopters to support operations in the southeastern United States. This contract is likely part of a broader portfolio of IDIQ vehicles held by Helicopter Express to provide comprehensive rotary-wing aircraft capabilities to the Forest Service and Interior Department.
