Phoenix Logistics, LLC

Phoenix Logistics, LLC, doing business as P L I, is a for-profit limited liability company and manufacturer of goods headquartered in Gilbert, Arizona, that delivers defense simulation and training systems, aircraft components, electrical/electronic assemblies, and logistics services to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on indefinite-delivery vehicles and low-dollar purchase orders, with a secondary presence as a subcontractor to Boeing and Lockheed Martin on aerospace production and training modernization work. Phoenix Logistics competes full-and-open across defense procurement and does not leverage set-aside certifications; recent awards span both cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts and firm fixed-price work under no-set-aside designations.

Phoenix Logistics' core federal footprint divides into three capability domains. The first and largest is defense simulation and training systems—the company holds a $293 million single-award IDIQ for the Joint Land Component Constructive Training Capability (JLCCTC) program awarded by the Army's Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation in March 2020 and extending through 2030. Under this vehicle, Phoenix Logistics delivers corrective, adaptive, and perfective post-deployment software support, analysis, design, development, integration, and fielding of constructive simulation systems serving Army training worldwide at approximately 40 sites. In fiscal year 2024, the company invoiced $5.6 million across 27.8 FTEs and 57,807 contractor hours on one JLCCTC delivery order at a blended rate of $96.75 per hour, with subcontractors (Cornerstone Software Solutions Inc., a woman-owned small business; Riptide Software, Inc.; and Assured Information Technology Engineering LLC, a veteran-owned small business) providing 26 percent of hours. A second major delivery order under JLCCTC—issued March 18, 2026, for post-deployment software support—carries a ceiling of $22.0 million and runs through March 17, 2027. The company also won a $28.8 million definitive contract in April 2024 from PEO STRI for medical simulation instructor and operator labor at Orlando, Florida, on which it invoiced $3.8 million across 38.3 FTEs at $47.64 per hour in FY2024, performing all labor in-house with no reported subcontractors.

The second capability domain centers on specialized aircraft components and electrical assemblies. Phoenix Logistics holds task-order positions on Boeing and Lockheed Martin primes across production and sustainment contracts. Named sub awards include C-130J coupler network components and relay electromagnetic parts; C-17 Globemaster III retrofit kits (RHUD kit material and spares); Apache helicopter advanced procurement; KC-135 block refurbishment; VC-25B (Presidential Aircraft Recapitalization) hardware; and CH-53K aircraft long-lead items. On the Lockheed Martin Aerial Weapons Scoring System (AWSS) contract and Army Training Aids, Devices, Simulators, and Simulations Maintenance Program contract, Phoenix Logistics provides labor support and systems engineering across multiple Army training installations (Drum, Campbell, Bliss, Stewart, Yakima, Hohenfels, Carson, and others), with work spanning 2022 through 2024 and beyond. The company also subcontracts to General Dynamics Mission Systems on the Common Training Center Instrumentation System (CTC-IS) Post-Deployment Software Support contract and to Sikorsky Aircraft on CH-53K helicopter and aircraft parts production.

The third capability domain is logistics commodities and component supply. Phoenix Logistics holds multiple positions under Defense Logistics Agency purchase order vehicles. The DLA Land and Maritime customer placed 94 awards with combined potential value of $1 million; the most recent is a $72,823.04 purchase order issued April 7, 2026, for electromagnet relays (NSN 5945014900095), 32 units, delivered to DLA Distribution Warner Robins within twenty-eight days. The DLA Aviation customer placed 58 awards with combined potential value of $443 thousand, including a $9,092.50 order for bus conductors awarded August 21, 2025. Additionally, Phoenix Logistics holds an OASIS+ Unrestricted GWAC position awarded December 17, 2024, with a multi-billion-dollar ceiling extending through December 16, 2029, under which it has executed a $1.359 million delivery order from the Army Training and Doctrine Command in June 2025 for Air Defense Airspace Management / Brigade Aviation Element (ADAM/BAE) support at Lawton, Oklahoma through May 31, 2030.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Army's PEO Simulation, Training and Instrumentation accounts for 158 awards (38% of all awards) and $1.39 billion in combined potential value (54% of the total), anchored by the $293 million JLCCTC IDIQ and related task orders. The Army Training and Doctrine Command contributes 4 awards carrying $977.4 million combined potential value, primarily the $975 million Mission Training Complex Capabilities Support II (MTCCS II) multiple-award IDIQ awarded in December 2023. The top two customers represent 81% of all awards by count and 97% of combined potential value by dollars. The Army Medical Command (8 awards, $74.8 million) and the Air Force Materiel Command (8 awards, $35.8 million) occupy tertiary positions.

Activity has grown sharply. Phoenix Logistics recorded 6 awards in 2022, accelerating to 36 in 2023, 118 in 2024, then moderating to 24 in 2025 and 3 year-to-date in 2026. The recent spike reflects bulk purchase-order awards under DLA vehicles and the maturation of larger IDIQ task-order activity. Within the next twenty-four months, three awards carrying combined potential value of $56.3 million reach ultimate completion and face recompete exposure.

SCI-reportable federal services invoicing totaled $52.1 million in FY2024 across 241 FTEs on prime contracts, a sharp jump from zero invoicing in FY2023 and reflects the PEO STRI and medical simulation labor contracts coming into performance. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Phoenix Logistics performs 91 percent of contractor hours in-house and engages subcontractors for 9 percent on average. On prime contracts, median government-paid hourly rates run $78.67 per hour, with senior labor reaching the 90th percentile at $127.10 per hour and junior roles clustered near the 10th percentile at $51.53 per hour. SCI data covers only service contracts above $150,000 and excludes goods, products, and classified work; the figures represent a partial view of the company's federal revenue and do not reflect total enterprise scale.

Phoenix Logistics operates predominantly as a prime (59% of awards) with a secondary subcontractor presence (41% of awards). Prime work concentrates on large Army training and simulation programs and DLA commodity supply. Sub work routes through two anchor primes—Lockheed Martin (the dominant relationship, spanning Army training systems maintenance, aerial weapons scoring, and aircraft production modification) and Boeing (Presidential aircraft, transport aircraft, and space launch vehicles). The company also subs to General Dynamics, Sikorsky Aircraft, Defense Systems and Solutions, and Trideum Corporation on smaller scale. The top NAICS categories reflect this split: Engineering Services (121 awards), Aircraft Manufacturing (38 awards), Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing (35 awards), Electronic Connector Manufacturing (32 awards), and Packing and Crating (26 awards). Top PSCs track similarly: Connectors, Electrical (43 awards), Antennas, Waveguides, and Related Equipment (37 awards), Training Aids (29 awards), and Miscellaneous Communication Equipment (27 awards). Place of performance spans Gilbert, Arizona (headquarters, component manufacturing); Orlando, Florida (PEO STRI simulation systems); Lawton, Oklahoma (ADAM/BAE support); and subordinate Army training installations across the continental United States and overseas.
