About this agency
The Department of Defense Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES), a defense agency component that operates military retail, dining, and service facilities worldwide, has awarded 1,742 federal contracts totaling $1.32 billion in combined potential value since 1996. The organization obligated $2.17 billion across these awards, reflecting heavy exercise of options and modifications. Contract activity has moderated in recent years: AAFES issued 16 awards in 2022, 17 in 2023, 13 in 2024, 8 in 2025, and 2 year-to-date in 2026, with the most recently recorded award dated August 4, 2026.
The competitive landscape is highly fragmented. Among prime contractors active over the last five years, Black Bay Aerospace LLC leads by award count with 12 contracts (combined potential value $716 thousand), followed by The Boeing Company with 7 awards and $30.4 million combined potential value, and Sterling Medical Associates, Inc. with 6 awards and $1.9 million combined potential value. These three primes account for only 52% of recent award count; the remaining portfolio spans 234 distinct prime contractors lifetime. By potential value, Boeing's 7 awards carry the largest weight at $30.4 million, but this concentration is minimal — the top five by value cover just 3% of combined potential value, reflecting a portfolio dominated by smaller individual contract values and heavy use of options and modifications that inflate obligation totals relative to reported potential.
The set-aside mix is negligible. Ninety-six percent of AAFES awards carry no set-aside designation; 8(a) Sole Source awards account for 2% of the portfolio (33 awards), Total Small Business accounts for 2% (28 awards), and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business represents 0% (3 awards). This distribution reflects AAFES's operational model as a Department of Defense exchange and resale operation, where most procurement serves internal supply-chain and facility-support functions under open competition.
No recent federal contract opportunities are recorded against AAFES or its subordinate offices in the digest. The moderated award cadence and sparse year-to-date 2026 activity suggest the organization is not currently issuing visible solicitations into the competitive federal market, or existing opportunities have not rolled into the digest window.
