About Grand Aire Inc.
Grand Aire Inc., a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) and minority-owned company based in Swanton, Ohio, operates as a prime contractor delivering specialized air charter services for inmate and medical flight transportation to federal correctional facilities and fuel logistics to the Defense Logistics Agency, with recent activity concentrated under a $2.2 million Defense Logistics Agency Energy fuel contract and recurring GSA Multiple Award Schedule delivery orders from the Bureau of Prisons.
Grand Aire Inc. is a minority-owned, SDVOSB-certified Subchapter S corporation with SBA Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business certifications valid through April 25, 2028. The company operates as a subsidiary of Grand Aire Express, Inc. Its federal footprint divides sharply between two service lines: air charter operations for the Bureau of Prisons under NAICS 481211 (Nonscheduled Chartered Passenger Air Transportation) and ground fuel logistics under NAICS 324110 (Petroleum Refineries). Set-aside posture across the prime awards is predominantly small-business set-aside, with several awards designated for Total Small Business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, or no set-aside (competed full-and-open).
The portfolio is heavily concentrated in fuel services. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy accounts for 242 awards (91% of recent prime work, 37% of combined potential value) anchored by a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract worth $2,208,800 through November 30, 2028, which covers ground fuel support across a fourteen-state region for multiple fuel types including aviation turbine fuel, diesel, gasoline, biodiesel, and ethanol. Representative DLA Energy awards include a $49,365 delivery order for aviation turbine fuel (March 31, 2026), a $29,665 delivery order for turbine fuel (March 4, 2026), and a $27,149 delivery order (January 27, 2026), all firm fixed-price with economic price adjustment. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons comprises the remainder and secondary customer base, with Federal Correctional Complex Tucson (6 awards, $300 thousand combined potential value), Federal Correctional Institution Texarkana (3 awards, $157 thousand combined potential value), and Federal Medical Center Devens (4 awards, $142 thousand combined potential value) as the top Bureau of Prisons facilities. Representative Bureau of Prisons awards include a $96,400 medical flight transfer delivery order from Federal Correctional Institution Texarkana (November 4, 2025, Total Small Business set-aside), a $76,702 multi-leg SOAP flight from Federal Correctional Institution Sheridan (September 15, 2025, Total Small Business set-aside), and a $63,990 delivery order from Federal Correctional Complex Beaumont (December 16, 2025). Grand Aire also secured a $325,579 delivery order from the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management National Interagency Fire Center (July 3, 2022) for large jet transportation of firefighting personnel to and from Alaska.
Activity has accelerated sharply since 2023: one award in 2023, three in 2024, twenty-five in 2025, and eleven through June 2026. The combined potential value across all 284 prime awards stands at $10.3 million, with $2.1 million obligated to date (20% of potential). The fuel contract with DLA Energy anchors future revenue and recompete exposure through November 2028; that vehicle carries 5 task orders (163 thousand dollars in combined potential value) under a separate IDC vehicle (SPE60525D4514), suggesting multiple procurement mechanisms and ongoing demand. The Multiple Award Schedule vehicle places 33 task orders worth $6.1 million combined potential value, predominantly Bureau of Prisons correctional and medical flight work.
Grand Aire executes all work as a prime contractor; no subcontract footprint is present in the source data. Place of performance is consistently Swanton, Ohio, reflecting the company's operational hub. The air charter service line demonstrates recurring relationships with the same federal correctional facilities—Federal Correctional Complex Tucson, Federal Correctional Institution Texarkana, Federal Medical Center Devens, and Federal Detention Center Philadelphia appear repeatedly across 2024–2026 delivery orders. Delivery order values for Bureau of Prisons work typically range from $13,980 to $96,400 for single medical flights or multi-leg SOAP (inmate movement) flights, with firm fixed-price structures and performance windows often matching award dates (same-day or next-day completion). The fuel contract with DLA Energy represents the company's entry into logistics beyond aviation and anchors the bulk of the recent award volume and future potential value.
