The federal contract IDV award and associated task orders provide for the delivery of exclusive use fixed wing utility aircraft and related fire support services to the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The prime contractor, Suburban Air Express, Inc., a veteran-owned small business, specializes in aerial firefighting operations and has been awarded several IDV contracts by the BLM to supply on-call and exclusive use fixed wing aircraft to support the agency's wildfire management activities in Alaska, with individual delivery order values ranging from approximately $500,000 to $1 million. Under the $7.2 million single-award IDV contract, Suburban Air Express has received multiple delivery orders to provide fixed wing utility aircraft and fire support services from 2019 through 2024, primarily in the Fairbanks and Fort Wainwright, Alaska regions. The services include air attack, air tactical, and fixed wing flight operations to transport fire personnel and cargo, as well as conduct aerial wildfire reconnaissance and monitoring to assist the BLM with its firefighting and land management missions. The contract and task orders were awarded on a non-competitive basis under the BLM's IDQ vehicles used to obtain specialized aviation assets on an as-needed basis.
