The renewal of this C-12 CLS contract is a testimony to Vertex’s high-quality, innovative solutions that have led to a 20-plus year relationship with the USAF C-12 program.
23 February 2021: US Air Force has awarded a USD 38 million firm-fixed-price indefinite‐delivery/indefinite‐quantity (IDIQ) contract for logistic support (CLS) for their 12 fleet with Vertex Aerospace. This is a modification to a previously awarded contract with a cumulative face value estimated at USD 158 million.
John “Ed” Boyington, Vertex Aerospace president and CEO said, “The renewal of this C-12 CLS contract is a testimony to Vertex’s high-quality, innovative solutions that have led to a 20-plus year relationship with the USAF C-12 program. These long-term relationships have allowed us to streamline maintenance operations through predictive analysis approaches and cost control efficiency, offering our customers accelerated readiness.”
CLS support will be performed at seven domestic locations and 16 international sites. This contract award follows Vertex’s prime seat awards on the US Air Force Installation Contracting Center’s Aircraft Maintenance Enterprise Solution and Consolidated Rotary Wing Maintenance contract vehicles, allowing the mid-level aerospace defense company and the USAF to further advance innovative fixed and rotary-wing solutions together.
Work is expected to be completed by December 31, 2021. The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, is the contracting activity.
