Air Transport International Inc.

Air Transport International Inc., a for-profit charter airline headquartered in Wilmington, Ohio, provides domestic and international air cargo logistics services to the Department of Defense and related federal agencies as a prime contractor, competing exclusively through full and open competition with no set-aside designations across its entire prime footprint.

Air Transport International operates a fleet of Boeing 757 and 767 freighter and combi aircraft to deliver heavyweight and specialized air transportation services globally, including mission-critical equipment, supplies, personnel, hazardous materials, medical freight, and ready-to-eat meals. The vendor's customer base is heavily concentrated within the Air Force and Army logistics apparatus. The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command (AMC) funds 41 awards worth $3.89 billion in combined potential value and anchors the vendor's primary business — the Office of the Secretary of Defense funds 45 awards worth $242.1 million, and the Department of the Army's Surface Deployment and Distribution Command funds 14 awards worth $47.5 million. Together these three customer entities represent near-total portfolio concentration. The vendor also holds a $45 million medical freight transportation contract from the Defense Logistics Agency's Troop Support division running through January 2026.

Air Transport International holds four primary IDIQ vehicles through which it generates rapid delivery orders. The International Charter Airlift Services in support of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet IDIQ (AMC-awarded October 1, 2024) carries a $1.053 billion ceiling and runs through September 30, 2030, with 12 task orders generating $300.7 million in combined potential value — this vehicle supports the CRAF program, which supplements organic military airlift capacity through commercial carriers. The Global Heavyweight Services (GHS) IDIQ (AMC-awarded December 21, 2022) carries a $1.503 billion ceiling extending through September 30, 2032, with 18 documented task orders generating $13.1 million in combined potential value; GHS enables door-to-door pickup and delivery for domestic cargo exceeding 150 pounds and international cargo exceeding 300 pounds on a less-than-planeload basis. The Multimodal-3 IDIQ (Department of the Air Force, $847.6 million ceiling) generates 27 task orders worth $50.8 million combined and provides air, sea, and land transportation services. A fourth vehicle, Indefinite Delivery Contract HTC71118DCC16 (a $221 million contract based on 10 documented task orders), also supports the vendor's order flow. The USTRANSCOM Global Heavyweight Service, held through an earlier award date, carries 28 task orders with $1.1 million combined potential value and is winding down through 2030. Representative delivery orders include a $133.7 million CRAF air transportation contract to Japan (October 1, 2025), a $129.1 million CRAF delivery to Diego Garcia in the British Indian Ocean Territory (October 1, 2024), and a $1.36 million CRAF air transportation order to Egypt (November 13, 2025); smaller representative orders include $22.8 thousand for health and comfort packs to Germany and $5.8 thousand for air cargo transportation from Bahrain to Qatar (both March 2026).

Award activity has accelerated in recent years — 3 awards in 2022, 9 in 2023, 16 in 2024, and 20 in 2025, reflecting expanding delivery-order velocity against its core IDIQ vehicles. The combined potential value across all 105 awards in the source dataset reaches $5.08 billion, though only $586.8 million (12% of ceiling) has been obligated to date, indicating substantial remaining capacity on the vendor's contract vehicles. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no sub-award footprint is present in the federal record. Performance occurs worldwide, with documented locations including Japan, Kuwait, Iraq, Germany, Poland, Diego Garcia, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt, Bulgaria, South Korea, and Thailand, reflecting Department of Defense logistics operations spanning CONUS, OCONUS, and hostile areas with administrative oversight in Wilmington, Ohio.
