Summary

The Request for Information (RFI) issued by the United States Department of Agriculture's Forest Service seeks to gather market research and planning insights for helicopter support services, specifically focusing on Type 3 Call-When-Needed (CWN) Night Vision Goggles (NVG) helicopter coordination. This initiative aims to enhance aerial firefighting operations by integrating NVG-equipped helicopters for night operations, thereby improving safety, situational awareness, and operational effectiveness. Contractors with expertise in providing helicopter services, particularly those capable of operating and maintaining aircraft that meet the required standards, are encouraged to respond. The RFI emphasizes the need for both single and twin-engine helicopters, such as the Bell 429 and Airbus H135, to support the Fire and Aviation Program of the US Forest Service.
