Rhenus Midgard GMBH & CO. KG

Rhenus Midgard GMBH & CO. KG, a German-based international freight forwarding and logistics services provider, operates as a prime contractor delivering storage and retrieval transportation services (S&RTS), stevedoring, warehousing, customs clearance, and materials handling to the Department of Defense at its facility in Nordenham, Germany. The vendor holds a single-award IDC valued at $103.3 million (completion November 30, 2029) with the Air Force, issued through the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command, and competes entirely in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations.

Rhenus Midgard's customer base concentrates heavily on Army logistics operations in the European theater. The Department of the Army Materiel Command's Surface Deployment and Distribution Command accounts for 67 awards (80% of volume) with $53.3 million combined potential value, while the broader Department of the Army carries 13 awards valued at $24.7 million. The Air Force anchors $103.3 million in potential value from a single high-value IDC awarded June 1, 2024. The split between award count and dollar value reflects the Air Force's single large-ceiling contract against the Army's numerous monthly delivery orders — a pattern consistent with SDDC's recurring S&RTS procurement model. The vendor has maintained continuous federal registration since October 2009.

The vendor places task orders under five primary IDCs: HTC71118DR026 (24 task orders, $28.7 million), HTC71114DRC10 (23 task orders, $5.6 million), W912CM08D7500 (19 task orders, $5.1 million), HTC71124DR034 (8 task orders, $4.2 million), and W52P1J13D0126 (2 task orders, $75 thousand). Work across these vehicles is standardized monthly S&RTS delivery orders, each covering a calendar month or shorter performance period. Representative awards include an $8.4 million November 2023 delivery order from the Army for Nordenham S&RTS operations, a $460 thousand May 2025 order under the Air Force IDIQ for the same scope, and a $1.98 million March 2026 delivery order for Nordenham storage and retrieval services.

Recent activity shows a decline trajectory — two awards in 2021, nine in 2023, six in 2024, three in 2025, and three in 2026 — with obligated dollars of $44.3 million against $182 million in combined potential value (24% obligated). The vendor's 2008 first award and consistent presence since October 2009 registration position it as an established logistics incumbent for Army European operations. Rhenus Midgard executes all contract work as prime without major subcontractors, handling the full scope of transportation, warehousing, customs clearance, and distribution in-house at Nordenham.
