About this IDV
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Lynden Air Cargo, LLC on July 1, 2026, with a ceiling of $254.4 million through June 30, 2031, for international commercial air cargo transportation of medical freight shipments weighing over 300 pounds to destinations outside the Continental United States.
The contract requires Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) participation and FAA certification, mandated under 10 USC 9516 and 49 USC 41106. Lynden Air Cargo must provide time-definite, door-to-door pickup and delivery services, in-transit visibility, expedited customs processing, and government-approved third-party payment system participation for diverse cargo types including ambient, hazardous materials, refrigerated or cold chain, life-critical, oversized, and controlled narcotic shipments. The solicitation (SP4701-26-R-0004, posted October 20, 2025) required proposals by November 20, 2025, evaluated on a best-value trade-off basis with non-price factors (business proposal, technical proposal, and past performance) significantly more important than price.
The base period runs from February 1, 2026 through January 31, 2027, with four 12-month option periods. Historical shipment data cited in the solicitation identified Germany as the highest-volume destination with 2,532 shipments totaling 3.5 million pounds, with requirements spanning EUCOM, PACOM, CENTCOM, NORTHCOM, and AFRICOM. Required transit times range from three to twelve business days depending on destination and shipment type, with pickup originating from various Continental United States locations and delivery to authorized Defense Logistics Agency users worldwide.
