FW American Aero Operating Company, LLC

FW American Aero Operating Company, LLC Modern Aviation FTW Division, doing business as American Aero FTW, supplies aviation turbine fuel (JAA-grade jet fuel) to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor, operating exclusively under full-and-open competition without set-asides. The company is a for-profit limited liability partnership headquartered at 251 American Concourse, Fort Worth, Texas 76106, competing in the liquid propellants and fuels market under NAICS 424710 (Petroleum Bulk Stations and Terminals).

American Aero FTW's federal footprint consists almost entirely of delivery orders issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Energy against a single indefinite delivery vehicle contract. The parent IDV, awarded July 1, 2023, carries a ceiling of $7.26 million and authorizes procurement of approximately 192.7 million gallons of aviation turbine fuel for delivery across nine southern states—Texas, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Tennessee—to support military installations and commercial aviation facilities through March 31, 2027. All work is performed at the company's Fort Worth operations. Individual delivery orders are structured as fixed-price contracts with economic price adjustment provisions, allowing fuel costs to fluctuate with market conditions while maintaining cost certainty for the government.

The Defense Logistics Agency Energy accounts for 100 percent of the company's 3,883 federal awards in the source data spanning from 2019 to April 2026. Activity has been substantial and consistent: 799 awards in 2022, 598 in 2024, 466 in 2025, and 121 year-to-date in 2026. Individual delivery order values range from single digits to approximately $13,800, with combined potential value across all awards totaling $13.1 million and combined dollars obligated at $5.1 million (39 percent of potential value). The vendor holds position on two primary IDV vehicles: SPE60719D0098 (2,289 task orders, $2.9 million combined potential value) and SPE60723D0014 (1,592 task orders, $2.2 million combined potential value). All awards carry the liquid propellants and fuels, petroleum base PSC code.

American Aero FTW operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract work in the federal portfolio. The company competes in open competition for each delivery order, with no exclusive or single-source arrangement noted across the award history. The vendor's federal contracting activity is narrowly specialized in aviation fuel logistics, with no diversification into other service lines or product categories.
