About the company
Airwest Helicopters LLC, a woman-owned small business based in Glendale, Arizona, operates as a prime contractor providing on-call Type III helicopter flight services and routine helicopter transportation to federal civilian agencies, with 270 prime awards spanning wildland fire suppression, search and rescue, law enforcement transport, personnel and cargo movement, and emergency medical support across remote and challenging locations.
Airwest is structured as a limited liability partnership and holds SBA certifications as a woman-owned small business and small disadvantaged business. The vendor competes predominantly under small-business set-aside categories—its largest parent vehicles (the Department of the Interior's $49.5 million On-Call Type III Helicopter Flight Services IDIQ and the Indian Health Service's $1.862 million single-award BPA) are both 100% small-business set-aside or total-small-business-set-aside instruments. The company's NAICS profile centers on nonscheduled chartered passenger air transportation (162 awards) and other nonscheduled air transportation (22 awards), with PSC coding weighted toward passenger air charter (142 awards) and air charter support (31 awards).
Airwest's customer footprint is heavily concentrated in civilian interior agencies. The top-five funding entities account for 61% of awards by count and 96% by combined potential value, led by the Department of the Interior Interior Business Center (12 awards, $57 million combined potential value), the Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (7 awards, $12.9 million), the Indian Health Service (90 awards, $7.1 million), the Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management program (5 awards, $4.5 million), and the Bureau of Indian Affairs Western Region (16 awards, $1.6 million). The Indian Health Service drives volume (90 awards) but anchors relatively small dollars per order; the Interior Business Center dominates dollars through its role as administrative vehicle for the larger IDIQ. Recent representative work includes a $126,000 delivery order from the Department of the Navy (May 2026) for communication equipment repair flight support at South Chocolates Mountain in Yuma, Arizona, a $127,070 delivery order from DOI/BIA (July 2025) for law enforcement personnel flights, and a $250,000 BPA call from Indian Health Service (June 2024) for helicopter charter services supporting the Critical Resource Support Unit.
Airwest's primary parent vehicles are the DOI $49.5 million Type III Helicopter IDIQ (running through April 2027, with multiple delivery orders), the IHS $1.862 million single-award BPA (through August 2028), and historical Indian Health Service BPA instruments (BPA HHSI247201000034B with 45 task orders and $256 thousand combined potential value). Activity has declined from nine awards in 2023 to two in 2025 and one in 2026, reflecting a trailing trajectory. Only two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, with combined potential value of $146 thousand—a modest recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data and maintains all-prime positioning across its portfolio.
