About this IDV

Mountain Blade Runner LLC, a Colorado-based helicopter aviation services provider, was awarded a $40 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract by the National Interagency Fire Center on April 12, 2023, extending through December 31, 2032. The contract establishes a Type 3 Helicopter Support Services vehicle that provides federal agencies with on-demand access to specialized helicopter operations and comprehensive aviation support for wildland firefighting, monitoring, aerial ignition, search and rescue, and related emergency response missions. The underlying solicitation, issued by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service in July 2022, solicited proposals for multiple award task order contracts to provide Type 3 helicopter support services including aircraft, pilots, ground crews, equipment, and supplies for fire suppression, prescribed burn operations, short-haul and rappel insertions, and limited law enforcement surveillance activities. The contract utilizes firm fixed price pricing structures and does not employ any set-aside designations, reflecting open competition among qualified aviation service providers. The place of performance spans multiple locations across the United States, with the contractor's primary operational base located in Montrose, Colorado.

Three delivery orders have been issued against this IDIQ contract to date, totaling approximately $1.01 million in combined value. The most substantial delivery order, valued at $888,797.36 and issued January 1, 2024, was tasked for performance in Forest, Mississippi, extending through December 31, 2028, and represents support for National Interagency Fire Center's critical mission of enabling rapid aerial asset deployment for federal wildland fire management operations. Two additional delivery orders, valued at $80,805.45 and $42,242.91 respectively, were issued in March 2026 and November 2025, both scheduled for completion by December 31, 2027, and performed from the contractor's Montrose, Colorado base. These task orders enable the National Interagency Fire Center and partner federal land management agencies to access specialized helicopter capabilities without maintaining permanent internal aviation fleets, supporting time-sensitive emergency response and natural resource management missions across the Western United States and beyond.
