About this IDV
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to Northern Air Cargo, LLC on July 1, 2026, with a ceiling of $127.2 million through June 30, 2031, to provide international commercial air cargo services for medical freight shipments exceeding 300 pounds to destinations outside the Continental United States.
Eligibility was restricted to Commercial Airlift Review Board-approved, FAA-certified air carriers participating in the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) program, as mandated by 10 USC 9516 and 49 USC 41106. No set-aside was used.
Performance spans worldwide locations with pickup origins from various Continental United States locations and delivery to authorized Defense Logistics Agency users globally, including European Command, Pacific Command, Central Command, Northern Command, and African Command theaters. Historical shipment data identified Germany as the highest-volume destination at 2,532 shipments totaling 3.5 million pounds across the geographic theaters.
The solicitation SP4701-26-R-0004 (Medical Freight Transportation 2.0) required comprehensive 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 shipment types including ambient, hazardous materials, refrigerated/cold chain, life-critical, oversized, and controlled narcotic cargo. Transit times range from three to twelve business days depending on destination and shipment type.
The contract structure provides a base period from February 1, 2026 through January 31, 2027, followed by four 12-month option periods. The government evaluated proposals using a best-value trade-off approach with non-price factors being significantly more important than price.
