About this IDV

Aevex Aerospace, LLC holds a $6 billion Basic Ordering Agreement with the U.S. Air Force Materiel Command's Aeronautical Systems Center for the BIG SAFARI program, awarded on April 16, 2019, with an ultimate completion date of September 27, 2025. The agreement is a single-award, non-set-aside vehicle under which Aevex provides specialized aviation services, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations, flight operations, logistics, maintenance, engineering assessments, and technical consulting in support of complex military aviation projects. The prime contractor, headquartered in Solana Beach, California, operates through its Aevex Flight Operations division and performs substantially all work at its California facility, with some historical task order performance in Texas. This indefinite delivery vehicle enables the Air Force to issue delivery orders for services spanning aircraft modifications, sensor development, prototyping, testing, and advanced aerospace engineering support across multiple defense and national security initiatives.

Under this basic ordering agreement framework, the Air Force has issued numerous delivery orders totaling approximately $795 million in cumulative ceiling values as of the most recent task order awards in September 2024. These delivery orders employ both firm fixed-price and cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing mechanisms, reflecting the variable nature of the required services. Notable recent delivery orders include a $380 million firm fixed-price award and a $13.6 million firm fixed-price award, both issued in September 2024 with completion dates extending through 2025 and 2026 respectively. Earlier delivery orders represent substantial commitments ranging from approximately $38 million to $334 million, demonstrating the breadth and depth of Aevex's role in sustaining BIG SAFARI operational capabilities. The delivery order structure allows the Air Force flexibility to task Aevex with emerging requirements while maintaining budget predictability through the established ceiling values and defined pricing arrangements.
