About the company
Rick Aviation Inc., a veteran-owned small business based in Newport News, Virginia, specializes in the supply of aviation turbine fuel to the U.S. Department of Defense. Registered as a Subchapter S Corporation and incorporated in August 2001, the company operates as a for-profit organization focused on meeting critical fuel supply requirements for military installations and defense-related agencies. Rick Aviation Inc. has established itself as a key logistics partner within the defense fuel supply chain, leveraging its strategic geographic location on the East Coast to provide responsive and reliable fuel delivery services to support national defense operations.
Rick Aviation Inc. has received extensive federal contract awards exclusively for the supply of aviation turbine fuel, specifically Jet Propellant-8 (JP-8) and related jet fuel products classified under the Federal Supply Schedule as TURBINE FUEL, AVIATION, JAA. The company has received well over one hundred delivery order awards from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy, spanning from August 2025 through September 2025, with individual delivery order values ranging from less than one hundred dollars to over twenty-eight hundred dollars. All contract awards identified in the record are delivery orders issued without set-aside designations, indicating open competition within the established contracting vehicle. The delivery orders uniformly employ fixed-price pricing structures with economic price adjustment mechanisms, enabling the company to provide flexible cost adjustments responsive to market fluctuations in fuel costs while maintaining contractual price predictability for the government. There are no identified subcontractors or sub-awardees associated with these delivery orders, as Rick Aviation Inc. serves as the prime contractor directly supplying JP-8 fuel to military installations and defense facilities in the Newport News region and broader East Coast area. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy serves as the sole funding federal agency for all identified contract awards to Rick Aviation Inc.
Rick Aviation Inc. holds a single-award indefinite-delivery vehicle (IDV) contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Energy, identified as SPE60722D0024, which was awarded on November 6, 2021, with a substantial ceiling value of $5,695,598.64 and an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2025 (with performance extending through March 31, 2025). This IDV contract supports DLA Energy's 2.3 Regional Fuels Program, which is specifically designed to engage qualified small business refineries and manufacturers for direct fuel distribution to military installations across the East Coast. Under this master IDV vehicle, Rick Aviation Inc. has received numerous fixed-price delivery orders for the supply of Jet Propellant-8 aviation turbine fuel, with work performance consistently occurring at the company's Newport News, Virginia location. The delivery orders issued under this IDV do not carry small business set-aside designations, reflecting open competition, though Rick Aviation Inc.'s qualification as a veteran-owned small business remains a distinctive aspect of its federal contracting profile. The economic price adjustment provisions embedded within the delivery orders enable responsive pricing mechanisms aligned with market conditions, allowing Rick Aviation Inc. to provide cost-effective fuel supply services while maintaining the flexibility necessary to support the Department of Defense's critical fuel logistics infrastructure requirements throughout the region.
