About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior's Acquisition Services Directorate, on behalf of the Bureau of Land Management, issued this Special Notice to conduct market research regarding the availability of qualified vendors for Air Tactic Group Supervisor (ATGS) services supporting wildland fire operations. This Special Notice is explicitly not a solicitation and will not result in a contract award, but rather serves as notification of a forthcoming Industry Day and an opportunity for industry to provide feedback on draft specifications. The notice was posted on October 31, 2025, with a December 19, 2025 due date, and is classified under the Support Activities for Forestry (NAICS 115310) and Passenger Air Charter (PSC V221) categories. The government seeks to engage potential contractors in dialogue to assess market capability and gather industry insights before releasing a formal solicitation. This market research initiative allows vendors to evaluate the feasibility and reasonableness of the government's requirements while promoting future competition.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to verify the reasonableness and feasibility of the ATGS requirement, obtain proposed improvements from industry, and promote future competition through collaborative engagement. The Industry Day is scheduled for November 18, 2025, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM (MST) at the Best Western Vista Inn in Boise, Idaho, with one-on-one meetings available from November 18-20, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 3:45 PM. Interested vendors must RSVP by November 7, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST by providing company information, personnel count, and meeting preferences to Clements_proposal_submissions@ibc.doi.gov, and are encouraged to submit comments and recommendations on draft specifications by November 12, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST. There are no specific eligibility criteria restricting participation; the government explicitly states that attendance is voluntary and all interested industry participants are welcome. The draft specifications were made available by November 5, 2025, and all information gathered during the Industry Day, including questions and answers, will be disseminated via amendment to the Special Notice.
