About the company
Helena Regional Airport Authority, a Montana-based local government entity operating as an airport authority, receives federal grants and minimal contract work from the Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, with all awards held at the prime recipient level. The authority operates Helena Regional Airport and does not hold subcontracts; it functions exclusively as a grant recipient and lessor of airport property.
The authority's federal footprint centers on FAA Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) and Airport Infrastructure Grants (CFDA 20.117) funding. Recent grant awards from the FAA Northwest Mountain Region total approximately $9.4 million across infrastructure modernization projects: $3.57 million for Phase 1 land acquisition (79.3 acres), $825 thousand for runway and taxiway lighting reconstruction and electrical emergency generator replacement, $372.7 thousand for a complementary portion of the same lighting and electrical work, $881.8 thousand for snow removal equipment (carrier vehicle with broom and blower), $775.5 thousand for security equipment reconstruction including gate access systems, $226.9 thousand for Phase 1 snow removal engineering and snow blower attachment, $188.7 thousand for vehicle movement area transmitters, and $1.6 million for aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment and taxilane construction (thermal imaging cameras, SCBA, turnouts, and 531- and 176-foot taxilane construction). Older grants funded taxilane reconstruction and access road rehabilitation, aircraft deicing equipment acquisition, master plan updates, aircraft rescue and firefighting vehicles, and pandemic-relief access road rehabilitation under CARES Act and American Rescue Plan funding.
The authority holds a single indefinite-delivery contract with the Department of Agriculture Forest Service National Interagency Fire Center valued at $250,000 through December 2028, providing 2.75 acres of minimally improved parking and ramp space adjacent to the Helena Aviation Center for firefighting and emergency response staging. Two small delivery orders issued against this IDC by the FAA Region 1 in 2024 and 2025 totaled $3,080.92 for airport infrastructure support. The authority's contract portfolio is negligible in dollar magnitude — three FAA delivery orders across 2024–2026 ranged from $724 to $1,664.72 each — and does not reflect a service-delivery or contracting orientation. Activity has remained flat at three to five awards per year across 2022–2026, with three awards scheduled to complete in the next twenty-four months. The combined potential value across all 39 awards in the source data totals $254,000; the combined obligated value of $59.1 million reflects invoiced reimbursement tied to grant performance rather than contract ceiling values and represents completion of multi-year infrastructure projects.
