The Department of the Interior (DOI) awarded Homestead Helicopters Inc., a small business based in Missoula, Montana, a $49.5 million multiple-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for on-call Type III helicopter flight services nationwide from May 2022 through April 2027. This civilian agency IDIQ, which was set aside for small businesses, enables DOI to rapidly obtain skilled pilots, aircraft, and support personnel from experienced vendors like Homestead Helicopters to execute critical missions such as wildland fire suppression, natural resource conservation, and emergency response across wide geographic areas. Task orders issued against this IDIQ contract include a $13,590.80 firm fixed price delivery order for Type III helicopter services to support SNOTEL flights for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) National Resources Conservation Service, a $26,000 delivery order for on-call Type III helicopter flight services in the USDA's Western Region, a $15,532 order for on-call small helicopter flight services in support of the DOI National Park Service's Belly River Transport operations, and a $5,000 order for on-call small helicopter services in support of the DOI Fish and Wildlife Service in Montana. These task orders demonstrate the breadth of aviation support Homestead Helicopters provides to federal natural resource agencies through this long-term IDIQ vehicle.
