Blanket Purchase Agreement FA452825A0003

Richfield Bus Co, doing business as Bloomington Charter Service, was awarded a Multiple Award Blanket Purchase Agreement by the U.S. Air Force's Global Strike Command for charter bus transportation services with a ceiling value of $1.25 million and a performance period extending through June 30, 2030. The agreement was awarded on a non-small business set-aside basis and authorizes the contractor to provide large-capacity passenger transportation services supporting military personnel movements and operational readiness activities across Air Force installations. The contractor, a Subchapter S Corporation based in Rochester, Minnesota, brings specialized expertise in military transportation logistics, with demonstrated capability to transport up to 270 personnel per vehicle and execute complex multi-location deployment scenarios.

The initial task order issued under this BPA demonstrates the contract's operational scope: a firm fixed-price call for $20,711.80 covering 791 round-trip charter bus services from Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota to Camp Grafton during July 8–10, 2025. This task order was set aside for small businesses, reflecting the contractor's eligibility status for such carve-outs. The BPA structure enables Global Strike Command to issue multiple task orders for time-sensitive transportation requirements supporting personnel movements, training exercises, and readiness operations at various military installations. The contractor's track record includes previous contracts supporting Combat Readiness Inspection Exercises and daily aircrew movements, establishing its capability to meet the mission-critical nature of military passenger transportation logistics under accelerated timelines.
