National Air Cargo Group, Inc. (doing business as National Airlines) was awarded a delivery order valued at $237,500 on January 24, 2017, for domestic charter air transportation services to support Air Mobility Command (AMC) operations at Fort Drum, New York. The contract employs firm fixed-price pricing and carries an ultimate completion date of February 2, 2017, reflecting a short-duration, time-sensitive airlift requirement. This delivery order was issued without a set-aside designation, indicating the contractor competed on a full and open basis. National Air Cargo Group operates as a global air cargo and passenger carrier providing comprehensive air transportation services to the Department of Defense, leveraging a fleet of wide-body aircraft capable of executing diverse missions including cargo delivery, personnel transport, and heavy equipment movement.
This delivery order derives from the parent "Domestic Charter Airlift Services 2014-2016" IDIQ contract vehicle managed by AMC. National Air Cargo Group maintains substantial federal contract experience across multiple Air Mobility Command IDIQ vehicles, including a $1.5 billion Global Heavyweight Services contract and a $129.3 million Civil Reserve Air Fleet air transportation services contract, both extending through September 30, 2030. The contractor operates without identified subcontractor relationships on federal air transportation awards and maintains a strategic role within the Civil Reserve Air Fleet program, which augments military airlift capacity through commercial carrier participation during both contingencies and routine defense logistics operations. The company's contract portfolio demonstrates consistent competitive positioning across domestic and international locations supporting DoD global mobility requirements.
