Akima Logistics Services Wins $365M C-21 Aircraft Contractor Logistics Support Contract

Akima Logistics Services is set to provide C-21 aircraft contractor logistics support services in support of multiple Air Force bases across the globe under the terms of a potential 10-year, $365M indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract. 

Specifically,  Akima Logistics Services will be tasked with providing support program management, aircraft base and depot maintenance, engine maintenance, modifications, modification support and deployment support. 

Scott Rauer, president of Akima’s facilities solutions group acknowledged the contract as a validation of the company’s experience in providing logistics support for the Air Force and expressed commitment to helping the service consistently meet and exceed their requirements, ExecutiveGov reported Tuesday. 

“This work complements support we provide at the U.S. Air Force Academy and for the USAF Special Aircraft Mission fleet at Andrews Air Force base," Rauer said. 

Akima Logistics Services will perform work for the contract through August 2030 at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois; Ramstein Air Base, Germany, and other U.S. and overseas locations.

The contract was awarded by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. 

With the contract in tow, Akima Logistics Services adds to its most recent contract win with the Navy in May 2020. The company secured a spot on the 10-year, $6.1B Kits, Recovery, Augmentation, Components and Engines multiple-award contract, which calls for maintenance services and support for single satellite sites, small aircraft quantities, personnel to augment government maintenance teams and overhaul capabilities for aircraft components and subsystems.
