Delta Air Lines, Inc. was awarded a delivery order valued at $67,204 on July 28, 2015, by the U.S. Air Force's Air Mobility Command for domestic charter air transportation services in Des Moines, Iowa. This firm fixed-price delivery order, which was completed on August 8, 2015, was issued under the Domestic Charter Airlift Services 2014-2016 indefinite delivery vehicle. The award carried no small business set-aside designation, consistent with Delta's classification as a large, established commercial carrier. As a major global air carrier headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Delta has maintained an extensive federal contracting relationship with the Department of Defense since 2001, providing comprehensive air transportation and logistics support to military mobility requirements.
This delivery order represents one of numerous task orders Delta has received under its Air Mobility Command contracts supporting civil reserve air fleet and domestic charter operations. Delta's federal contracting portfolio with the Air Force encompasses over 200 prime contract delivery orders focused primarily on domestic charter services, complemented by substantial international airlift operations supporting defense mobility requirements across multiple geographic locations. The company's federal contracting activities extend beyond Air Mobility Command to include specialized training contracts, heavyweight shipping services, and participation in the General Services Administration's City Pair Program, which provides discounted commercial airline passenger transportation to federal agencies government-wide.
