About the company
Skyquest Aviation LLC, doing business as Gold Coast Helicopters, is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Glendale, Arizona that delivers aircraft maintenance, depot-level maintenance support, corrosion control, and aviation logistics services to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor on 69 awards with combined potential value of $8.36 billion. The vendor competes under set-aside designations on roughly 30% of its awards, predominantly under Total Small Business and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-asides, and holds a mixed posture across full-and-open and set-aside vehicles.
Skyquest's capability portfolio centers on aircraft maintenance and logistics for military platforms. Representative work includes a $751.8 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract awarded by the Ogden Air Logistics Complex in June 2025 under the Depot On-Site Contract Augmentee Teams Fifth Generation (DOCAT5) program, providing depot-level maintenance and related tasks for C-130, F-16, F-22, F-35, A-10, and T-38 aircraft at Hill Air Force Base and subordinate locations through June 2035; a $5.94 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract from the Coast Guard awarded June 1, 2026 for aircraft maintenance and aviation life support equipment maintenance at Air Station Atlantic City, Aviation Training Center Mobile, and Joint Base Andrews through April 2031; and a $25 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract from the Department of Justice for FBI aircraft maintenance and logistics support for over 100 fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft across continental U.S. field offices through September 2027. Recent delivery orders span functional check flight services for HH-60G/W helicopters at Aviano Air Base, Italy ($2.31 million, Air Forces Europe and Africa, January 2025), aircraft washing and corrosion prevention for MC/HC/AC-130J special operations gunships at Kirtland Air Force Base ($663,760, Global Strike Command, June 2024, SDVOSB set-aside), and facilities maintenance for C-130, F-16, F-22, A-10, and F-35 aircraft at Hill Air Force Base and T-38 aircraft at Randolph Air Force Base (multiple delivery orders totaling approximately $8.4 million, Ogden Air Logistics Complex, 2024–2025).
Customer concentration centers on defense logistics and Air Force operations. The top five customer agencies by award count account for 71% of recent awards: Ogden Air Logistics Complex (19 awards, $1.12 billion combined potential value), Department of Justice FBI Headquarters Division (18 awards, $70.7 million), FBI Academy (5 awards, $30.3 million), Pacific Air Forces (4 awards, $5.7 million), and Naval Air Systems Command (3 awards, $6.12 billion). The potential-value ranking differs sharply — Naval Air Systems Command anchors $6.12 billion across only three awards, while Ogden Air Logistics Complex aggregates $1.12 billion across nineteen smaller delivery orders — signaling a customer that places frequent small task orders (Ogden) versus one that holds a smaller, higher-value vehicle (NASC).
Skyquest operates exclusively as a prime contractor across all 69 awards in the source data, with no sub-award activity recorded. SCI-reported federal service-contract invoicing totaled $14.5 million across FY2022–FY2025 (prime records only), reflecting $6.8 million in FY2022, $2.2 million in FY2023, and $5.5 million in FY2024; FY2025 invoicing has not yet accumulated in the source. The SCI dataset shows roughly 109 FTEs delivered in FY2022, scaling to 1,042 FTEs in FY2023 (driven by a single high-headcount contract), then declining to 184 FTEs in FY2024 and 140 FTEs in FY2025. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, government-paid rates ran around a median of $71.35 per hour, with entry-level labor pricing at roughly $21.80 per hour and senior positions through $83.92 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Skyquest self-performed all labor with zero sub-hours recorded, indicating a fully internal delivery model with no reliance on subcontractors.
Award volume has remained moderate and uneven — four awards in 2022, six in 2023 (declining to four in 2024), recovering to seven in 2025, and three in 2026 through September — with five awards (combined potential value $7.3 million) completing within the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete risk. The vendor's IDV portfolio is anchored by the $751.8 million DOCAT5 contract and the $6.12 billion Naval Air Systems Command vehicle, providing significant apparatus for future task-order placement against defense logistics and Air Force maintenance operations through mid-decade.
