About this agency
The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command (AETC), a major command within the Department of Defense, procures contracts to support pilot training, aircrew development, base operations, and logistics across the Air Force's training pipeline. AETC is the Air Force's principal acquisition arm for training infrastructure, instructional services, aircraft support, facility maintenance, and enlisted personnel development.
AETC maintains a large contract portfolio spanning 119,210 total federal contract awards since 1996, with combined potential value of $65 billion and $60.16 billion obligated. Award volume has declined in recent years: 3,443 awards in 2023, 3,178 in 2024, 2,597 in 2025, 1,100 in 2026, and 1 year-to-date in 2027. The most recently recorded award date is April 9, 2027.
The contractor base is highly fragmented, with the top five primes by award count holding only 9 percent of recent awards over the last five years. HPI Federal LLC leads by award count with 378 awards and $53.3 million combined potential value; Transource Services Corp. follows with 254 awards valued at $26.2 million; and Dell Federal Systems L.P. holds 250 awards at $193 million. When ranked by potential value, concentration remains minimal at 1 percent of combined potential value—Fcn, Inc. tops this ranking with $224.3 million across 65 awards, followed by Dell Federal Systems and Carahsoft Technology Corp. at $120 million. Many awards are transacted through Schedule task orders and BPA calls with unreported individual values, reflecting the agency's reliance on pre-established contracting vehicles.
The set-aside mix is dominated by unrestricted awards: 87,419 awards (73 percent) carry no set-aside designation. Small business set-asides represent 17 percent of awards; 8(a) awards (sole source and competitive combined) account for 7 percent; Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, HUBZone, and Woman-Owned Small Business designations each represent 1 percent or less.
Current contract opportunities span facility maintenance, training services, and base operations.
