About this IDV
Airwest Helicopters, Inc. was awarded a $10 million multiple award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) on April 12, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2032. This Helicopter Support Services Material Order Technical Contract (MATOC) Type 3 establishes the master contract vehicle under which the National Interagency Fire Center and partnering federal agencies can issue task orders for specialized helicopter services. The contract follows a competitive solicitation issued by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service in July 2022, which sought qualified operators to provide Type 3 helicopter support services for wildland fire management and resource programs across public lands. The solicitation evaluated proposals on a lowest price technically acceptable basis with no set-aside provisions, and envisioned a one-year base period with nine one-year option periods, with task orders valued at a minimum of $5,000 each.
Under this contract vehicle, Airwest Helicopters provides Type 3 helicopter services capable of supporting fire suppression, monitoring, attack operations on prescribed fires, short-haul missions, rappel operations, and limited law enforcement surveillance activities. Services are performed throughout the United States by qualified helicopter operators and crews, enabling the National Interagency Fire Center and other federal agencies to rapidly procure aerial support for wildland fire management, emergency response, and natural resource conservation missions. This IDV complements Airwest Helicopters' existing federal contract portfolio, which includes a $49.5 million Department of the Interior On-Call Type III Helicopter Flight Services contract and a $7.5 million Forest Service Basic Ordering Agreement, positioning the company as a key provider of helicopter support services across multiple federal land management agencies.
