County Of Horry

County Of Horry, operating as the Horry County Department Of Airports, is a local government entity in South Carolina that supplies aviation turbine fuel to the Department of Defense through the Defense Logistics Agency Energy as a prime contractor on full-and-open, non-set-aside delivery orders. The vendor operates exclusively in aviation fuel logistics with no SBA certifications or designations and competes in the commercial fuel-supply market across five active indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Energy running through March 31, 2029.

The vendor's federal footprint is extraordinarily concentrated in a single commodity and customer. DLA Energy accounts for 6,912 awards (99% of volume) carrying $99 million in combined potential value across recent activity — essentially the entire prime contract portfolio. The vendor's secondary customer is the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration, with eight awards valued at $8.4 million, and the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration, which has awarded 36 grants. The vendor holds no government-wide contract vehicles, GWACs, or multi-agency IDIQs; all work flows through DLA Energy's single-award indefinite delivery contracts for aviation fuel delivery at Myrtle Beach International Airport and subordinate Horry County airport locations in South Carolina.

The five active parent indefinite delivery contracts under DLA Energy include vehicle SPE60722D0023, which carries 2,759 task orders with $31.4 million in combined potential value — the largest single vehicle in the portfolio. Contracts SPE60721D0074, SP060013D0086, SPE60017D0072, and SP060013D0083 support the remainder of the transactional load, collectively carrying more than 3,800 task orders. Individual delivery orders against these parent contracts range from sub-$1,000 spot purchases to orders exceeding $90,000, all priced fixed-price with economic price adjustment. The vendor executes a high-volume, serial delivery-order model rather than managing a small number of large awards. Recent activity shows 847 awards in 2025 and 409 awards through mid-2026 — a decline trajectory driven by the serial transaction model rather than customer reduction.

In its secondary role, the vendor is a recipient under the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration's Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116), holding a $213,111.58 project grant awarded July 15, 2026, to conduct a new airport-wide obstruction survey at North Myrtle Beach airport facilities, with performance running through July 14, 2030. The vendor also holds eight awards from the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration valued at $8.4 million, the scope of which is not detailed in the source material.

The vendor operates as a child entity of the parent County Of Horry (a U.S. local government entity) headquartered in Conway, South Carolina. County Of Horry itself is the parent structure and has been awarded federal grants from the FAA. The Horry County Department Of Airports operates Myrtle Beach International Airport and manages subordinate airport locations in South Carolina. All work is performed by the vendor as prime with no subcontractors; the source material carries no evidence of teaming arrangements, sub-awards, or indirect delivery of federal services through other vendors. The vendor's competitive posture is driven entirely by its operational position as the fuel provider at Myrtle Beach and subordinate airport sites — a geographic and operational advantage in the DLA Energy "Into-Plane" fuel procurement program rather than a capability or price differentiation play against commercial fuel suppliers in open competition.
