About this IDV
Eastern Air Express LLC, doing business as Hillwood Airways LLC, was awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract by the U.S. Air Force's Air Mobility Command for international airlift services under the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) program. This multiple-award IDV, established on October 1, 2024, carries a ceiling value of $18,000 and extends through September 30, 2030. The prime contractor, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Weatherby Lake, Missouri, provides Federal Aviation Regulations Part 121 certified charter air transportation services. The underlying solicitation, posted in August 2023 as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside, sought air charter transportation services for the transport of human remains and escorts originating from the Air Force Mortuary Affairs Operations at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, with geographic coverage spanning the Continental United States, Alaska, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, U.S. Virgin Islands, and other North American countries.
The initial task order issued under this IDV on October 1, 2024, valued at $3,000 on a firm fixed-price basis, represents delivery of air transportation services for the movement of personnel, light cargo, and equipment between Air Force facilities. This contract vehicle complements Eastern Air Express's larger domestic airlift IDIQ valued at $699,994,000, enabling the Air Mobility Command to rapidly issue delivery orders for on-demand air transportation across operational contexts. The contractor's scope includes provision of all necessary personnel, equipment, tools, and materials required to execute these services, along with associated maintenance, supervision, and documentation. Through this arrangement, the Air Force maintains flexible capacity to support its global mobility mission, including training exercises, emergency deployments, and routine sustainment operations.
