The Defense Logistics Agency Energy (DLA Energy) awarded a five-year single-award indefinite delivery contract to Benchmark Biodiesel, Inc., a woman-owned small business, to provide various fuel products including diesel, ethanol, jet fuel, and biodiesel. The $4.2 million contract utilizes a partial small business set-aside and runs through July 2027. As the prime contractor, Benchmark Biodiesel will supply DLA Energy through fixed-price delivery orders for the agency's fuel requirements supporting Department of Defense operations and facilities across the Columbus, Ohio region.
The contract consolidates DLA Energy's procurement of petroleum distillates and biofuels from Benchmark Biodiesel to cost-effectively meet the energy needs of America's military. DLA Energy, the combat logistics support agency of the DoD, manages the global supply chain for fuel, energy, and related services. The agency's original $4.2 billion solicitation sought domestic producers and distributors of standard and alternative fuel products, with a portion of the requirements set aside for small businesses including service-disabled veteran-owned firms.
