About this IDV
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded Perimeter Solutions LP a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $1.12 billion with a period of performance extending from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2030. This civilian contract, awarded without set-aside provisions, establishes Perimeter Solutions LP as the sole source provider of national fire retardant products and services to support federal wildland fire suppression operations. The contract includes an administrative modification addressing the reclassification of the Alamogordo Air Tanker Base from Type B to Type A status. Perimeter Solutions LP, a St. Louis-based fire safety solutions provider operating under its Fire Safety division, will deliver comprehensive wildland fire management support including aerial fire retardants, mixing and loading services, bulk retardant production, and full-service firefighting assistance across multiple federal regions and agencies including the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Bureau of Indian Affairs.
Three delivery orders totaling $106 million have been issued under this IDC, with performance occurring in Boise, Idaho. The first delivery order, valued at $50 million, covers full-service fire retardant products and services for calendar year 2026 on a firm fixed-price basis. The second delivery order, valued at $20 million, procures national retardant in bulk for 2026. The third delivery order, valued at $36 million, provides national retardant daily rate operations with initial funding commitment through January 1, 2026. These delivery orders represent the initial funding tranches supporting NIFC's critical mission to enable federal agencies to rapidly procure essential fire suppression resources necessary for wildfire containment and resource protection operations throughout the contract period.
