I am sorry to share that they are not coming soon. In speaking with USFS management, the program is too busy carding Type 2 aircraft, pilots, mechanics, and other aircraft for the season and haven't had time to finish evaluating the Type 3 MATOC TORPs.  i would not expect awards in anything less than 2 weeks and honestly more likely another 2-4 weeks. It's not their highest priority at the moment. Plus being the first contract award of its kind, the agency is planning on extra scrutiny, by a larger contingent of agency officials further on this award further slowing the award timeline.  I know this is bad news, but maybe knowing some insight will help your situation, definitely don't count on it happening in the next week to 10 days.
