Air Liquide Italia Service S.R.L.

Air Liquide Italia Service S.R.L., an Italian subsidiary of the Paris-headquartered Air Liquide industrial gas group, supplies aviator's breathing oxygen, technical-grade nitrogen, and tank hot fill services to the Defense Logistics Agency Energy as a prime contractor, operating exclusively on a single-award indefinite delivery contract with no set-aside designation and competing in the open federal market.

The vendor's entire federal footprint comprises 174 delivery orders issued by DLA Energy since 2007, all flowing through four parent indefinite delivery contracts. The largest vehicle is IDC SPE60121D1525, valued at $2.123 million and awarded April 26, 2021, which has generated 93 task orders worth $1.3 million in combined potential value across 13 European locations (Italy, Spain, Germany, Greece, Portugal, and the United Kingdom). A second IDC, SPE60115D1540, has produced 48 task orders carrying $1.6 million combined potential value. Two smaller vehicles—SP060011D1556 and SP060007D1517—account for 17 and 12 task orders respectively. Individual delivery orders under these contracts typically range from approximately $3,500 to $37,700. The combined potential value across all 174 awards is $8.7 million, with $3.3 million obligated as of the source snapshot.

Recent activity remains consistent: the vendor received five awards in early 2026 (most recent March 31, 2026), including a $16,401 delivery order for aviator's breathing oxygen with an April 7, 2026 completion date, a $8,599 oxygen order completed March 6, 2026, a $12,309 oxygen order for January 26, 2026, a $14,955 nitrogen order with March 12, 2026 completion, and a $19,239 oxygen order scheduled for April 2, 2026. Year-over-year award volume has remained steady between 17 and 21 delivery orders annually from 2022 through 2025. All work is performed in Italy under firm fixed-price terms with no identified subcontractors; Air Liquide Italia operates as a pure prime contractor with zero sub-award activity in the source record.

DLA Energy's concentration on this vendor is absolute—100 percent of the $8.7 million portfolio and all 174 awards derive from that single customer agency. The vendor competes through open market procurement without set-aside protection, competing against other European-based industrial gas suppliers on cost and availability. The product mix is narrowly defined: 161 awards are classified under PSC Gases: Compressed and Liquefied, with 13 awards under Liquid Propellant Fuels and Oxidizers. All awards fall under NAICS Industrial Gas Manufacturing. Place of performance is consistently Italy, with the IDC structure enabling DLA Energy to issue frequent small replenishment orders to support ongoing U.S. military aviation and logistics operations across the European theater. The April 7, 2026 expiration of the primary IDC SPE60121D1525 will create a recompete exposure for the vendor's largest vehicle.
