JTL Group, Inc.

JTL Group, Inc., doing business as Knife River-Billings, is a subsidiary of Knife River Corp that performs pavement maintenance, repair, and construction services for the U.S. Air Force as a full-and-open prime contractor, with no set-aside certifications and no subcontract work. The company operates from Billings, Montana, and competes exclusively in unrestricted federal procurement under NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) with related PSC codes for road and runway maintenance and repair.

JTL Group's federal footprint centers on a single customer agency. The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command accounts for 79 of 92 awards and $82 million of the $84.5 million combined potential value across the vendor's recent award history — representing 97% of award count and virtually all dollar value. The Department of the Air Force Air National Guard places the remaining meaningful volume (5 awards, $2.3 million), with Department of the Interior playing a negligible role. This extreme concentration reflects JTL Group's specialization and sustained presence at Francis E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming, home to the 90th Missile Wing's intercontinental ballistic missile operations. Recent awards include a $483,508 firm fixed-price delivery order (December 2025) for driveway widening and concrete replacement at the fire department; a $369,024 asphalt maintenance delivery order (December 2025); and a $157,089 fog seal application (December 2026), all issued by Global Strike Command without competitive restriction.

JTL Group holds four primary indefinite delivery contracts with Global Strike Command spanning pavement services at Francis E. Warren Air Force Base and associated Air National Guard facilities through 2029. The largest vehicle — Indefinite Delivery Contract FA461319DA001 — carries a $9.999 million ceiling effective through October 26, 2029, with six task orders totaling approximately $1.835 million issued to date. Three additional IDCs (FA461309D0003, FA461314D0001, and FA461325D0003) collectively carry 73 task orders worth approximately $22.2 million in combined potential value. The underlying scope across all vehicles encompasses pothole repair, asphalt crack sealing, fog seal application, runway and taxiway resurfacing, parking lot repairs, road repaving, concrete replacement, utility trench repair, and pavement striping — all performed at Francis E. Warren AFB and subordinate Air National Guard sites in Wyoming.

Activity has remained stable at 4–6 awards per year from 2021 through 2025, with only one award (valued at $369 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure. JTL Group operates as a 100% prime contractor with zero subcontract work; the company does not function as a teaming partner or sub-supplier. The parent company, Knife River Corp, is based in Bismarck, North Dakota, and operates JTL Group as an operational subsidiary focused on defense infrastructure services, with no other federal customer relationships visible in the source material.
