Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE60725D0149

Eastern Aviation Fuels, Inc. (UEI: JURSNNYKAPV3), a wholesale aviation fuel distributor based in New Bern, North Carolina, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy on October 1, 2025. This contract, valued at $1.46 million with a ceiling completion date of March 31, 2029, procures aviation jet fuel products to support Department of Defense and Federal Civilian agency fuel requirements. The contract originated from a pre-solicitation notice (SPE607-25-R-0201) released by DLA Energy on December 4, 2024, for an Into-Plane program covering petroleum fuel product procurement across the East Coast and adjacent regions, including 19 geographical locations spanning the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and portions of Canada. The procurement was conducted as an open competition with no set-aside designation, evaluated under the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable source selection methodology, and is categorized under NAICS code 324110 (Petroleum Refineries) and PSC code 9130 (Liquid Propellants and Fuels with a Petroleum Base).

The contract supports critical fuel supply operations for military and federal civilian transportation infrastructure at commercial airports throughout the specified East Coast region. DLA Energy utilizes such Into-Plane contracts to maintain consistent and reliable aviation fuel availability for operational readiness across multiple Department of Defense installations and federal civilian airports. Eastern Aviation Fuels' demonstrated capability in delivering Jet A-1 aviation turbine fuel, combined with its established supply chain infrastructure on the East Coast, positions the contractor to fulfill the logistical requirements associated with this multi-state fuel distribution program. The contract's indefinite delivery vehicle structure enables DLA Energy to issue delivery orders against the established ceiling value based on actual fuel requirements, providing operational flexibility while maintaining pricing stability through fixed-price mechanisms with economic price adjustment provisions.
