The U.S. Department of the Army's Program Executive Office Aviation and Air Education and Training Command have served as the primary contracting authorities. Notable contractors include System High Corporation, which is providing IT destruction services at Redstone Arsenal in Alabama, and Wise Environmental Solutions Inc. (doing business as Annes Cans), which is providing facilities support through restroom trailer rentals in Montgomery, Alabama. The recent awards have been firm fixed-price contracts executed through purchase orders and Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) calls, with no set-aside designations applied. System High Corporation has demonstrated significant federal contracting experience with over $500 million in prime federal contracts since 2019, particularly in security and technical services.
