Big Jet, LLC

Big Jet, LLC, a minority-owned, black American–owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, operates as a prime contractor supplying specialized commodities and logistics support services to federal defense and civilian agencies, with 100 percent of recent awards held as prime contracts. The company holds self-certified small disadvantaged business status and Department of Transportation certified disadvantaged business enterprise designation, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides across the majority of its Naval Air Warfare Center work while also securing non-set-aside task orders for specialized defense components.

Big Jet's customer concentration is extreme and heavily tilted toward Naval assets. The Department of the Navy's Naval Supply Systems Command and Naval Air Warfare Center account for 36 of 64 awards (56%) and $65.1 billion of $65.12 billion in combined potential value—a concentration driven almost entirely by a single multiple-award indefinite delivery contract: the Worldwide Expeditionary Multiple Award Contract–Territorial Integrity of the United States (WEXMAC TITUS) awarded October 1, 2025, with a $65 billion ceiling running through December 31, 2029. Naval Air Warfare Center contributes 34 awards worth $105.1 million across its own procurement portfolio. The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service, the Department of the Army's Contracting Command Redstone, the Department of the Air Force's Materiel Command, Pacific Air Forces, and the Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service Region 6 round out the customer base, each representing single-digit award counts and sub-million-dollar value.

Big Jet holds eight active prime BPAs and IDVs. The Naval Air Warfare Center single-award BPA (N6833524A0007) for various commodities and government purchase card services, valued at $4.999 million through December 18, 2028, has generated 31 task orders ($91.1 million combined potential value) spanning specialized forged components, bearing assemblies, support cylinders, torque wrenches, coupling assemblies, and tactical government purchase card allocations. The Army Contracting Command Redstone single-award BPA for tire and tire-related support at Letterkenny Army Depot (W911N224A0010), $288,334 through June 30, 2029, has been exercised through 11 task orders ($110 thousand combined potential value) for tire procurement and installation. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service $250 thousand single-award BPA for wrestling mats (available for multi-agency use) has generated 13 task orders ($550 thousand combined potential value) delivering 1-inch thick, 42.5' × 42.5' AAU-approved white wrestling mats. Big Jet also holds a Naval Supply Systems Command $4 million single-award BPA for vehicle rental services (through November 30, 2028), an Air Force Materiel Command $4.5 million multiple-award BPA for sea containers (through March 14, 2029), a Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service $250 thousand single-award BPA for bulk fuel and propane delivery in South Dakota (through March 27, 2029), and a newly awarded Naval Air Warfare Center $9 million single-award BPA for metals (January 2, 2026 through January 1, 2031).

Recent capability work reflects Big Jet's positioning as a defense commodity and logistics supplier. Representative examples include a $784 thousand Pacific Air Forces definitive contract (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027) for 24 Deutz Diesel Tier 4i engines and component packages supporting a ten-year overhaul of the BAK-12 Aircraft Arresting System at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska; Naval Air Warfare Center BPA calls for specialized forgings ($234,690 and $191,890 for forged rings and AMS-S-6758 forgings), bearing assemblies ($29,394), support cylinders ($77,996), and coupling components ($57,969); Army Contracting Command Redstone BPA calls for tire procurement at Letterkenny Army Depot ranging from $1,170 to $26,746; and monthly government purchase card BPA calls from Naval Air Warfare Center regularly valued at $4.999 million for on-demand procurement authority.

Activity has grown sharply year over year—12 awards in 2023 to 30 in 2025—driven primarily by monthly government purchase card BPA call allocations from Naval Air Warfare Center. Only one award (the $784 thousand Pacific Air Forces contract) faces completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete exposure in the near term; the remainder of Big Jet's portfolio extends through 2028 to 2031. The vendor's NAICS profile shows 32 awards coded to industrial gas manufacturing, 13 to sporting and athletic goods manufacturing, and 12 to tire manufacturing, though the actual commodity scope is broader and includes metals, forgings, bearings, and logistics services. Big Jet performs all work from its Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania location and delivers goods nationwide and internationally in support of naval, Army, and Air Force logistics operations.
