About Benchmark Biodiesel, Inc.
Benchmark Biodiesel, Inc., a woman-owned, HUBZone-certified small disadvantaged business based in Columbus, Ohio, supplies diesel fuel, ethanol fuel, biodiesel, and aviation turbine fuel to the Defense Logistics Agency Energy as a prime contractor under a single-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) valued at $4.24 million through July 31, 2027. The company competes predominantly under partial small business set-aside on its master contract, though individual delivery orders are issued full-and-open or without set-asides.
Benchmark Biodiesel operates as a Subchapter S Corporation manufacturer classified under NAICS 324110 (Petroleum Refineries) with corporate identity anchored in SBA 8(a) and HUBZone designations, DOT Certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise status, and Woman Owned Small Business certification. The firm has been a federal contractor since 2010. Across 500 recent awards, 496 fall under the Petroleum Refineries NAICS, with the remainder scattered across allied petroleum and coal products classifications. The PSC footprint reflects the core capability: Fuel Oils account for 335 awards, and Liquid Propellants and Fuels, Petroleum Base, for 162 awards.
All customer concentration sits with DLA Energy, which has issued 490 awards (representing 98% of award count and 98% of combined potential value) against Benchmark Biodiesel's primary IDC and two subordinate contracts. The remaining eight awards to the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration and isolated orders to NASA Glenn Research Center and the Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service account for less than $120 thousand combined. Individual delivery orders under the master IDC range from approximately $900 to $80,000 in potential value, with typical performance windows of days to weeks and fixed-price structures featuring economic price adjustment provisions.
The company's three active parent vehicles are the DLA Energy IDC SPE60518D4003 (354 task orders, $2.5 million combined potential value), IDC SPE60522D4003 (97 task orders, $1.4 million), and IDC SP060013D4011 (27 task orders, $469 thousand). These vehicles consolidate fuel procurement across diesel, ethanol, biodiesel, and jet fuel to support Department of Defense operations and facilities in the Columbus region. Representative delivery orders include a $248,652.27 order for aviation turbine fuel (October 2022), a $80,346 order for diesel (June 2022), a $63,050.40 order for diesel (January 2023), and dozens of smaller orders for ethanol and biodiesel in the $2,000 to $25,000 range, all awarded and completed with economic price adjustment mechanisms.
Award velocity has declined sharply—the company received 65 awards in 2022, dropping to 21 in 2023, rising to 32 in 2024 and 32 in 2025, then collapsing to 8 awards in the first four months of 2026. This trajectory reflects increasing reliance on fewer, larger delivery orders rather than the historical cadence of numerous small orders. Combined obligated dollars across 500 awards total $4.7 million (39% of the $12 million combined potential value), indicating much of the potential remains undrawn or subject to future performance.
Benchmark Biodiesel received approximately $2.0 to $2.4 million in USDA Rural Business Cooperative Services grants (circa 2020–2022) to expand infrastructure for higher blends of ethanol and biodiesel, positioning the company as a renewable fuel supplier within its core diesel and petroleum fuel business. Place of performance for all contract work is Columbus, Ohio. The company operates as a 100% prime contractor footprint with no identified subcontract activity across the source data.
