Regional Jet Center, Inc.

Regional Jet Center, Inc., doing business as Crain Aviation, operates as a self-certified small disadvantaged business and fixed-base operator supplying aviation turbine fuel (JAA designation) to the Department of Defense through a single-award indefinite delivery contract, competing in the open federal marketplace without set-aside designation.

The company's federal footprint is entirely concentrated on Defense Logistics Agency Energy fuel procurement. All 13,066 awards in the source data are prime contracts issued by DLA Energy, with zero subcontract activity. Regional Jet Center holds the single-award IDV contract SPE60724D0005, awarded December 1, 2023, with a $9.0 million ceiling and ultimate completion date of March 31, 2027. Under this vehicle, DLA Energy issues multiple daily delivery orders to supply approximately 192.7 million gallons of aviation turbine fuel for delivery to commercial airports across nine states, supporting Department of Defense domestic aviation fuel supply chain operations and the military's into-plane services program. The contract uses fixed-price pricing with economic price adjustment provisions, reflecting responsive procurement for discrete fuel delivery requirements. Individual delivery orders from DLA Energy range from sub-$500 orders to over $21,000, with over 150 orders issued in the September–October 2025 window alone.

Customer concentration is absolute: DLA Energy accounts for 13,050 of 13,066 awards and $50.1 million combined potential value across all federal sources. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service holds 8 awards and Defense Logistics Agency (parent organization) holds 3 awards, each carrying minimal dollar value. The vendor's award portfolio shows 2,869 task orders under the primary IDV (SPE60724D0005, $3.6 million combined potential value) visible in the source, supplemented by 5,611 orders under IDV SPE60719D0003 ($6.5 million) and 4,259 orders under IDV SP060015D0019 ($8.3 million), indicating multiple concurrent fuel supply contracts with DLA Energy. Regional Jet Center's activity trajectory reflects volatility: 1,328 awards in 2022, declining to 701 in 2023, rebounding to 1,243 in 2025, and averaging 393 awards through April 2026.
