This indefinite delivery contract was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency Energy to procure direct delivery fuels into-plane for multiple East Coast states and territories. The contract vehicle has a single prime contractor, Port City Air doing business as NH Helicopters, and involves delivery orders for aviation turbine fuel to be supplied to locations in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Delivery orders issued against the contract from June 2023 through March 2025 have potential values ranging from $400 to $83M and require fuel deliveries by fixed completion dates. The pricing structure for orders is predominantly fixed-price with economic price adjustment. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy supports Department of Defense energy needs through programs like this one that facilitate bulk fuel procurement and distribution for military aviation operations. No set-aside designations or subcontracting details are provided in the task order descriptions.
The original solicitation sought information from small fuel manufacturers and refineries capable of direct delivery into-plane to qualify for potential future orders supporting DLA Energy's 2.3 East regional fuels program. This program provides jet and diesel fuel for multiple states, territories, and locations across the eastern United States to power various Defense Department activities. The solicitation did not specify award values but performance was required through June 2025 for the agency's military customer fuel requirements in the region.
