About this IDV
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) Northwest Region awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Fletcher Flying Service Inc., operating as Coastal Air Strike, to provide exclusive use of single engine air tanker (SEAT) aircraft for wildland fire suppression support. The $5 million IDC, set aside for small businesses, has a period of performance through April 2026. Under this IDC, the BIA has issued multiple task orders, valued between $100,000 - $265,000, for Coastal Air Strike to deliver SEAT flight services based out of Bemidji, Minnesota and Billings, Montana to support the agency's natural resource management and community development programs for indigenous populations. The task orders utilize fixed-price with economic price adjustment pricing and do not have set-aside designations. This contract vehicle enables the BIA to rapidly access Coastal Air Strike's specialized aerial firefighting capabilities across the Northwestern United States as needed to assist with wildland fire management.
The original procurement opportunity, posted in January 2021 as a small business set-aside, sought bids for on-call SEAT services to support the BIA's wildland fire suppression operations. Based on Coastal Air Strike's successful proposal, the agency awarded the single-award IDC to leverage the contractor's expertise and fleet of aircraft designed for aerial firefighting, vegetation management, and other natural resource protection missions on tribal lands and in National Parks.
