The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command has awarded Omni Air International, LLC, a limited liability company, multiple firm fixed-price delivery orders for domestic air charter transportation services. The delivery orders, valued at up to $699,994,000.00 in total, call for Omni Air to provide passenger and cargo airlift within the continental United States, as well as transportation to select international locations like Japan, Germany, Kuwait, and Mongolia. The delivery orders are issued against Omni Air's existing indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts with U.S. Transportation Command and Air Mobility Command for global heavyweight air transportation services, which facilitate worldwide shipment of oversized and overweight Department of Defense cargo. No set-aside designations were applied to these awards. The contracted air transportation services support the Air Mobility Command's mission to provide rapid global mobility and sustainment for the U.S. armed forces.
The original market research conducted by the U.S. Transportation Command in 2017 indicated a need for commercial air charter services to supplement the military's organic airlift capabilities in support of domestic and overseas mobility operations. The resulting procurement provides a mechanism for the Air Force to flexibly acquire on-demand passenger and cargo air transportation services from qualified commercial carriers like Omni Air International on a task order basis. This ensures the Department of Defense has access to the necessary air mobility resources to deploy and resupply forces globally.
