Agility-Led JV Wins USAF Fuel Contracts

The US Defense Energy Support Center (DESC) awarded four fuel management contracts — worth $8.6 million over 5 years — to a joint venture led by Agility Defense & Government Services (DGS). The joint venture, AFH Fuel Services, LLC, will operate, maintain, secure and provide safety and environmental protection for aviation and ground bulk fuel storage operations in US Air Force (USAF) installations at Andersen Air Force Base (Guam), Kadena Air Base (Okinawa, Japan), Misawa Air Base (Misawa City, Japan) and Osan Air Base (South Korea).

Agility DGS is the majority shareholder in AFH Fuel Services, which also includes Ferguson-Williams and Hammer Inc. AFH was created to bring best-in-class logistics and operations capabilities to DESC. DESC, a unit of the Defense Logistics Agency, purchases and manages energy supplies for the Department of Defense. These new awards follow the announcement by DESC in June that AFH Fuels Services won three European fuel management storage contracts worth $7.7 million over 5 years.

Those awards were for Ramstein Air Base (Germany), Lajes Field (Azores, Portugal) and Incirlik Air Base (Turkey). “The AFH team is already hard at work for the Air Force in Europe and is well prepared to provide premier bulk fuel services to these key Air Force installations in the Pacific,” said Dan Mongeon, president and CEO of Agility DGS. “Agility is committed to providing global support to the Defense Logistics Agency and the DESC.”
