Jfe-K Ryukyu Logistic JV

Jfe-K Ryukyu Logistic JV is a for-profit international joint venture headquartered in Yokohama, Japan, that specializes in providing comprehensive logistics, transportation, and environmental services to support U.S. military operations throughout Japan and Okinawa. Registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) since January 2009, the company has established itself as a critical service provider for the Department of Defense and related agencies operating in the Pacific region. The contractor maintains operational capacity across multiple Japanese locations, with particular focus on installations in Naha and surrounding areas, and provides specialized support for military logistics infrastructure that sustains U.S. defense readiness in the western Pacific.

Jfe-K Ryukyu Logistic JV has demonstrated extensive expertise through a substantial portfolio of federal contract awards spanning multiple service categories. The contractor's primary services include the transportation of specialized seavans (20-foot equivalent containers) between military installations, particularly between Naha and Fukuoka, which represents a core operational requirement for military logistics operations. The company has provided significant services related to the destruction and disposal of aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) rinsate classified as non-Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) regulated waste, reflecting its specialized capabilities in hazardous material management and environmental remediation. Additional services encompass tank cleaning, provision of empty plastic containers, vacuum truck operations and transport between Japan and Okinawa, cargo handling at military facilities, and ordnance wharf operations. The contractor's awards have been funded primarily by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Disposition Services and the Department of the Navy Installations Command, with all contract awards issued on an unrestricted, competitive basis without small business or other set-aside designations, demonstrating the company's ability to compete directly in the federal marketplace. The contract values for individual delivery orders have ranged from under $300 to approximately $3.78 million, with cumulative award activity reflecting ongoing, substantial engagement with Department of Defense logistics requirements.

Jfe-K Ryukyu Logistic JV currently holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) vehicles that structure its ongoing work with federal agencies. The primary vehicle is a $6.62 million single-award IDC with the Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services, effective through April 2029, which provides comprehensive transportation, logistics, and environmental services supporting U.S. military operations in Japan and Okinawa. This contract encompasses the full range of the contractor's core service offerings, including specialized container transportation, non-RCRA regulated waste disposal, tank cleaning, and associated cargo handling operations. Numerous delivery orders have been issued against this DLA Disposition Services vehicle throughout the performance period, with orders typically valued between $6,900 and $61,979, allowing the agency to task the contractor for specific logistics requirements as operational needs arise. The second IDC is a $9.98 million single-award contract with the Navy Installations Command, originally awarded January 18, 2022, with ultimate completion scheduled for February 16, 2023, which provides Cargo Handling Team (CHT) and Ordnance Wharf Watch (OWW) services at Commander Fleet Activities Okinawa (CFAO) in support of Camp Foster Activity. Under this Navy contract vehicle, the contractor provides critical wharf operations, cargo handling, mobilization support, and hose hookup integration work essential to sustaining naval logistics operations in Okinawa. Both IDC vehicles were awarded on a single-award, unrestricted basis, reflecting the contractor's established competitive positioning and the specialized nature of services required to support U.S. military operations in the Pacific region.
