GJ26-172 UCA Helicopter Transport Services for Blackcrook Peak Communications SiteThe Utah Communications Authority (UCA) is soliciting helicopter transport services for the Blackcrook Peak communications site under solicitation number GJ26-172, with a not-to-exceed contract value of $50,000. The procurement is a small purchase conducted under Utah Code § 63G-6a-506, requiring vendors to submit quotes by July 9, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. MT to Chris Hughes at chughes@uca911.org, with questions due by July 7, 2026, at the same time. The work involves transporting four technicians and their tools, along with equipment and materials totaling approximately 5,077 pounds across three scheduled days, between the rally point at 6,099 ft MSL and the Blackcrook Peak site at 9,270 ft MSL, all to be completed by August 24, 2026. Vendors must possess a current FAA Part 133 Rotorcraft External-Load Operator Certificate and applicable FAA authority for personnel transport, with assigned pilots certified in vertical-reference, long-line, and high-altitude mountain operations. The proposed aircraft must demonstrate performance capability at the site’s elevation under anticipated conditions. Vendors are required to provide rated long lines, cargo transport bags, and a fuel truck with on-site refueling support, and all transportation and handling charges are the contractor’s responsibility under F.O.B. destination terms. The award will go to the lowest qualified, responsible vendor meeting all mandatory technical requirements, which, if unmet, result in immediate disqualification. The contract is governed by UCA’s Standard Terms and Conditions, which include provisions for termination with thirty days’ notice for convenience or due to changes in law or funding, and ten days’ cure period for violations before immediate termination. The contractor indemnifies UCA and the State of Utah, transfers all work product ownership as a “work made for hire,” and must maintain records for six years after final payment, subject to audit by UCA, federal auditors, or state officials. All submissions are subject to Utah’s GRAMA law, requiring vendors seeking confidentiality to include a written claim with redacted versions. Invoicing must occur within thirty days of service completion, with payment terms set at thirty days after receipt of a correct invoice, and late payments over sixty days may incur interest under the Utah Prompt Payment Act.

Air Transportation Support ServicesThe notice is a sources sought announcement issued by the Incident Support Section (ISS70) of the Department of Homeland Security, specifically under the Federal Emergency Management Agency, to gather industry information regarding air transportation support services. It is not a solicitation and does not commit the government to any award or contract. The primary objective is market research to assess industry capabilities in providing end-to-end air transportation for emergency response across all U.S. territories, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands. Contractors must demonstrate the ability to support 24/7 operations with rapid deployment capabilities—within three hours for no-notice events and five hours for planned activations—using a range of aircraft types including fixed-wing jets, turboprops, helicopters, and Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Respondents are required to provide detailed information on their company structure, SAM registration, FAA certifications, aircraft inventory, crew qualifications, hazardous materials handling, property and accounting systems compliant with DCAA standards, and socioeconomic status such as small business, 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB certification. Pricing must be submitted as commercially available rates for passenger, cargo, and UAS services, though no line items or contract values are included. Responses must be submitted as a single, searchable PDF or Word document no longer than ten pages, formatted in 12-point font with one-inch margins, and emailed exclusively to Kimberly Coakley at Kimberly.Coakley@fema.dhs.gov by July 29, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST. The NAICS code for this effort is 481211 (Aircraft Support Services), and the PSC code was updated in Amendment 001. There are no evaluation factors, award criteria, or contract clauses defined at this stage, as this notice is strictly pre-solicitation. Performance locations are nationwide and contingent on disaster response needs, with inspections occurring at both origin and destination airfields under FAA and federal regulatory compliance. The government does not specify FOB terms, payment details, or invoicing systems, but contractors must have valid Unique Entity IDs, CAGE codes, and tax identification numbers, and must confirm compliance with environmental, aviation, and UAS operational regulations. No contract administration personnel beyond the primary point of contact are identified, and no formal delivery schedule, contract duration, or estimated value is provided.

The aircraft must be fully compliant with Federal Aviation Administration standards and capable of operating under urgent conditions to meet mission-critical needs. Services are intended to support federal emergency response efforts under the Department of Homeland Security’s Incident Support SECTION(ISS70), with performance expected to be scalable and geographically flexible to meet dynamic operational demands. This subcontract opportunity was posted on June 24, 2026, with a response deadline of July 29, 2026, at 4:00 PM Eastern Time. The NAICS code 481211 identifies the scope as air transportation services for scheduled and charter operations, indicating the need for commercially viable, on-demand jet capabilities rather than fixed-schedule services. There is no set-aside designation specified, meaning all eligible contractors may submit proposals regardless of business size or ownership structure. The place of performance is not restricted to a specific location, allowing for nationwide and potentially international response coordination as required by emergent incidents. Contractors must demonstrate proven reliability, regulatory compliance, and operational readiness to meet stringent response timelines without exception.
