About this vehicle
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Nevada Region established this Master IDIQ for helicopter flight services supporting wild horse and burro management and ACETA (Aerial Capture, Evaluation, Transport, and Adoption) activities on January 1, 2017, with a shared ceiling of $3 million and ordering closed on December 31, 2021. The vehicle is no longer active; the last task order award was March 31, 2020, making it six years expired.
The scope covers on-call helicopter services for wild horse and burro census work, roundups, captures, and related aerial wildlife management operations across Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Forest Service regions, with performance concentrated in Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Idaho.
El Aero Services, LLC dominates the vehicle, holding 68 of 121 task orders (56% of awards) and $2 million of the combined potential value. Leading Edge Aviation, LLC and Aero TECH LLC each hold 12 orders; the remaining six primes capture a narrow tail. The top five primes account for 92 percent of task orders and 95 percent of potential value, indicating high concentration around El Aero's helicopter platform.
Department of the Interior agencies placed 89 of the 121 orders (74% of activity); the Nevada Region alone issued 47 orders valued at $1.3 million. National Park Service Intermountain Region, Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region, and Bureau of Land Management Utah Region each represent smaller but material customer bases.
All 121 task orders carry no set-aside designation, meaning the vehicle was fully unrestricted competitive. Task-order values range from $801 to $354,950, with typical orders falling in the $25,000–$75,000 band and performance durations typically three to six months. The $4 million combined potential value has been fully obligated. Order volume peaked in 2017 (41 awards) and averaged 24 per year across 2017–2019 before tapering sharply in 2020 (12 awards) as the vehicle approached its December 2021 closure date. A successor vehicle or renewal mechanism is not evident from the source.
