About the company
Kalinin Aviation LLC, doing business as Alaska Seaplanes, operates as a prime contractor providing seaplane-based aerial firefighting, smokejumper transport, cargo delivery, and emergency response services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center under a Total Small Business set-aside posture. The Juneau, Alaska-based for-profit limited liability company competes predominantly on set-aside vehicles and holds a newly awarded single-award IDIQ with no dollar ceiling specified.
Kalinin Aviation's federal work concentrates entirely on wildland fire management aviation. The vendor operates from its Juneau base to serve Alaska's remote and inaccessible terrain, delivering firm fixed-price delivery orders for aerial firefighting support, fire detection and monitoring flights, smokejumper positioning, cargo transport, and rapid-response emergency aviation operations. Recent representative delivery orders include a $628,777 call-when-needed award issued April 13, 2026, under a Region 10 IDIQ for exclusive-use aviation services, and smaller task orders in the $1,397 to $21,096 range spanning 2022 through 2026. The vendor's work is characterized by short performance periods (often one to three weeks per delivery order) and low individual ceiling values typical of seasonal fire-support contracting.
Customer concentration is extreme: 87% of the 84 total awards (72 awards, $17.5 million combined potential value) flow from the National Interagency Fire Center under the Department of Agriculture. A single outlier award of $6 thousand from Interior's Interior Business Center represents the remainder. The vendor operates no subcontracting footprint — all 84 awards are prime contracts or IDIQs.
Kalinin Aviation holds position on four parent vehicles. The primary vehicle is a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA 1202SA21G5700) carrying 69 task orders valued at $400 thousand combined. A newly awarded single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract (1202SA25T9402), valued at $9 million with performance through December 31, 2033, represents the vendor's growth vehicle and is set aside for total small business. Two smaller Blanket Purchase Agreements round out the portfolio, with five task orders each under vehicle identifiers IND14060880ARA3090 ($6 thousand combined) and IND81ARA3220 (value not specified in source). The vendor's NAICS concentration reflects its narrow scope: 70 awards under Nonscheduled Chartered Freight Air Transportation and 14 under Nonscheduled Chartered Passenger Air Transportation.
Activity has grown from ten awards in 2022 to 26 in 2024, then contracted to 13 in 2025 and one in 2026 (year-to-date as of mid-July). This pattern reflects seasonal fire-season demand rather than multi-year trend; annual award counts are not predictive of underlying dollars, as individual delivery-order ceilings remain small. Combined potential value across all 84 awards is $17.5 million, with only $522 thousand obligated to date (3% of potential), typical of call-when-needed IDIQ structures where the government commits funding only upon issuance of task orders.
