About the company

ABX Air, Inc., doing business as ABX Air Inc., is a for-profit air cargo transportation services provider headquartered in Wilmington, Ohio, and registered in the System for Award Management since February 2002. The company specializes in heavyweight domestic and international air cargo transportation for the U.S. Department of Defense, operating a fleet of Boeing 767 freighter aircraft capable of transporting oversized and heavy cargo exceeding 150 pounds to strategic global locations. As a self-certified small disadvantaged business, ABX Air has established itself as a critical logistics provider for military operations and contingency efforts, delivering specialized air transportation services that support the Department of Defense's global supply chain requirements.

ABX Air has provided extensive heavyweight delivery services to the federal government through numerous delivery orders issued under master indefinite delivery contracts. The company's primary work involves providing door-to-door pickup and delivery services, shipment tracking, customs clearance, and data reporting for oversized and overweight cargo shipments supporting Department of Defense missions worldwide. Delivery orders have been funded by the Office of the Secretary of Defense and Air Mobility Command, with individual task orders typically valued between $1,000 and $2.15 million, covering performance periods of one to three months. ABX Air executes all work as a prime contractor without subcontractor involvement, delivering cargo to diverse global locations including Germany, Japan, Guam, Bahrain, Afghanistan, Norway, Guyana, Australia, the United Kingdom, Italy, and various domestic U.S. locations. The company has not utilized any small business set-aside designations on its federal contract awards, competing on an unrestricted basis while maintaining its small disadvantaged business certification status.

ABX Air holds three significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the U.S. Air Force's Air Mobility Command. The largest is the Global Heavyweight Services (GHS) contract, awarded December 21, 2022, with a ceiling value of approximately $1.503 billion and a performance period through September 30, 2032, which provides commercial air cargo transportation for heavyweight domestic and international shipments on a less-than-planeload basis. The second IDC is the International Charter Airlift Services in support of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) contract, awarded October 1, 2024, with a ceiling value of approximately $23.4 million through September 30, 2030, which establishes a multiple-award vehicle for international charter airlift and air transportation services utilizing ABX Air's specialized Boeing 767 freighter aircraft. The third is a civil air transportation services contract, HTC71124DCC24, awarded July 15, 2024, with a modest ceiling value of $1,500 and a performance period through September 30, 2028. All three contracts operate on a firm fixed-price delivery order basis, allowing the government flexibility in task issuance while providing cost certainty for individual orders.
