The solicitation, posted October 1, 2025, sought comprehensive into-plane fuel delivery services including 24/7 delivery capabilities, electronic point-of-sale systems, and compliance with military fuel quality standards (MIL-STD-1548H). The contract covers approximately 74 airport locations with fuel quantities ranging from 4,000 to over 18 million units per location. Performance extends from April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2029. Pricing employs Platt's 5-day average price escalator mechanisms with economic price adjustment provisions and allowances for weekly market-based adjustments up to 350–550 percent of the award price. The original solicitation referenced NAICS code 324110 and incorporated EDWOSB set-aside provisions, though this award was made on a non-set-aside basis under open market competition. Eastern Aviation Fuels, a for-profit wholesale aviation fuel distributor based in New Bern, North Carolina, serves as the sole prime contractor without identified subcontractors.
