About this IDV
Capitol Helicopters, Inc., a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Sacramento, California, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract for Type 3 Helicopter Support Services valued at $80 million by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), a civilian agency operating under the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Department of the Interior. The contract, awarded April 12, 2023, extends through December 31, 2032, and was solicited in July 2022 by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service to establish multiple award task order contracts for Type 3 helicopter support services. The solicitation, evaluated on a lowest price technically acceptable basis with no set-asides, sought qualified operators to provide helicopters and crews for wildland fire management operations on public lands throughout the United States. The contract carries no set-aside designation at the Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity level, though Capitol Helicopters' small disadvantaged and woman-owned business certifications have facilitated several Total Small Business set-aside task orders under related contract vehicles.
Under this master contract, Capitol Helicopters provides comprehensive aerial helicopter support services including water drops, cargo transport, aerial ignition, air attack supervision, reconnaissance, personnel transport, and short-haul operations in support of wildland fire suppression, prescribed burns, search and rescue missions, and emergency response operations. Capitol Helicopters maintains a diverse fleet of Type 1, 2, and 3 helicopters capable of rapid mobilization across the western United States and beyond, with primary operational bases in Sacramento and McClellan Park, California. The company has received over 100 delivery orders under this and related master contracts since 2022, with individual task order values ranging from approximately $172,510 to $4.32 million. Recent delivery orders documented include engagements in Sacramento, California; Rolla, Missouri; Cornelia, Georgia; and McClellan Park, California, with completion dates extending through December 31, 2032. Capitol Helicopters operates as one of NIFC's cornerstone providers for helicopter aviation support, holding four major Indefinite Delivery Contracts with combined ceiling values exceeding $229.5 million across NIFC and the Department of the Interior.
