About the company
Aviation Consultants, Inc. (doing business as Aviation Consultants Inc.), headquartered in San Luis Obispo, California, supplies aviation turbine fuel—JP-8 and Jet A/Jet A-1—exclusively to the Defense Logistics Agency Energy as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontracting relationships, competing on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations.
The company's entire federal footprint concentrates in a single customer and mission: DLA Energy fuel supply across eleven western U.S. states and territories (Alaska, American Samoa, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming). All 1,981 awards—100% of recent activity—fund this single customer relationship, generating $13.1 million in combined potential value. Of that, $8.5 million (65%) has been obligated. The vendor operates from a single location in San Luis Obispo, executing into-plane delivery at approximately 74 commercial airport locations with 24/7 capability and MIL-STD-1548H fuel quality compliance. Pricing is fixed-price with economic price adjustment mechanisms to manage petroleum market volatility.
Aviation Consultants, Inc. sits on two successive indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Energy. The prior IDIQ (SPE60722D0084), awarded July 1, 2022, and expiring March 31, 2026, generated 1,802 delivery orders valued at $7.4 million. The successor IDIQ (SPE60726D0014), awarded April 1, 2026, carries a $1.48 million ceiling and extends through March 31, 2029. The successor vehicle has generated 177 delivery orders ($1.1 million combined potential value) since award; individual delivery orders typically range from under $400 to $43,000, with most clustering between $1,000 and $20,000.
Activity shows sustained volume. The vendor executed 230 delivery orders in 2022, growing to 526 in 2025 (representing approximately one per business day) and 335 through July 2026. The underlying solicitation (SPE607-25-R-0204), posted October 1, 2025, sought multiple contractors to supply fuel at specific airport locations; DLA Energy awarded separate IDIQs by geographic grouping, with Aviation Consultants, Inc. capturing the full western region allocation. Procurement was structured as Lowest Price Technically Acceptable, emphasizing 24/7 delivery, electronic point-of-sale systems, and military fuel compliance. Pricing escalators incorporate Platt's 5-day average price indexes with provisions for weekly adjustments up to 350–550 percent of award prices.
The vendor's concentration profile presents both strength and risk. Customer concentration is absolute—DLA Energy accounts for 100% of awards and 100% of potential value. This deep, operationally embedded relationship (174+ commercial airport locations served, 24/7 capability, specialized fuel infrastructure) creates switching costs and continuity, but exposes the vendor entirely to recompete risk when the current IDIQ vehicle reaches its March 31, 2029, maturity. No other federal customer exposure exists to diversify that risk. The company operates in NAICS 324110 (Petroleum Refineries) and PSC 4940 (Liquid Propellants and Fuels, Petroleum Base), reflecting a commodity logistics posture rather than value-added services.
