Purchase Order SPE60523P1347

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $1.34M to United Capital Investments Group (doing business as Ucig) on April 25, 2023, for the supply of aviation turbine fuel. The contract, which carried an ultimate completion date of May 1, 2023, was executed without set-aside designation on an unrestricted, full and open competitive basis. Performance is to occur in the United Arab Emirates, where Ucig maintains its primary operational presence and serves as a critical logistics partner for Department of Defense fuel requirements across multiple geographic regions. Ucig, a minority-owned business headquartered in Dubai and registered with the System for Award Management since June 2014, specializes in delivering petroleum-based fuels and lubricants to support military operations.

This purchase order is consistent with Ucig's established role as a prime contractor with the Defense Logistics Agency, the federal agency responsible for managing fuel and energy logistics for military installations worldwide. The award reflects Ucig's demonstrated expertise in supplying aviation turbine fuels such as Jet A-1 and the company's ability to compete effectively in federal fuel procurement. All of Ucig's contracts with DLA Energy are structured as firm fixed-price agreements with economic price adjustment provisions, enabling the government to maintain budgetary predictability while accommodating commodity fuel price fluctuations. The contractor operates with no identified subcontractor relationships and is required to furnish fuel meeting specified quality standards, provide appropriate documentation, and maintain detailed Fuel Source Data Sheets tracking country of origin and transportation routes.
