About the company
Cline Air Services, LLC, doing business as Central Valley Helicopters, provides aerial herbicide application, aerial seeding, and wildfire restoration services to federal land management agencies as a small-business prime contractor, competing predominantly under total small-business set-asides on purchase orders and delivery orders. The company is a partnership based in Ellensburg, Washington, with SAM.gov registration since October 2001, and has maintained a federal award footprint spanning 53 prime contracts across fourteen customer agencies over the past two decades.
Cline Air Services operates in two distinct NAICS and PSC categories: soil preparation and aerial seeding services (28 awards under NAICS 561710 and related codes, PSC YF for natural resources conservation) and helicopter-based herbicide and pesticide application (15 awards under PSC YM for aerial fertilization and spraying). Recent representative work includes a $57,421 firm fixed-price purchase order from the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (awarded September 2026) for aerial seeding of the Little Giant Fire in Wenatchee, Washington; a $90,223.50 total small-business purchase order from the Fish and Wildlife Service (July 2022) for helicopter herbicide application at Leadbetter Point in Willapa National Wildlife Refuge, Washington; and a $67,925 delivery order from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District (July 2022) for aerial seeding of 2,200 acres of grass mixtures in Ellensburg. The company also maintains a long-standing relationship with the National Interagency Fire Center through a Basic Ordering Agreement for call-when-needed helicopter services supporting nationwide wildfire suppression.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted by one large contract vehicle. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center anchors 96% of the combined potential value across the top five customers — four awards totaling $28.5 million — while the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle places ten awards worth $1.4 million combined potential value. The remaining top customers (Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region, Army Installation Management Command Southeast Region, and Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region) carry substantially smaller individual award values. This concentration reflects Cline Air Services' specialization in federal wildfire and invasive-species management rather than broad-based contracting.
Cline Air Services holds seats on multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts and Basic Ordering Agreements. The primary vehicle is Indefinite Delivery Contract W912DW19D1034 with the Army Corps of Engineers for Yakima Training Center aerial services (nine task orders, $415 thousand combined potential value), followed by Basic Ordering Agreement AG024BB155011 (two task orders, $623 thousand combined potential value). Activity has been irregular year over year — three awards in 2022, one in 2023, three in 2024, two in 2025, and two in 2026 — with only one award ($57 thousand potential value) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, signaling minimal near-term recompete exposure. The combined obligated value across all fifty-three awards is $6.8 million (21% of $32.7 million combined potential value), reflecting the prevalence of unexercised ceiling values on standing orders and agreements rather than fully invoiced work.
