DOD's transportation purchasing unit, the United States Transportation Command (USTranscom) also issued a contract valued at just under $200 million to Polar Air Cargo.
All of the agreements, which begin Oct. 1, are part of the government’s effort to consolidate package delivery contracts under USTranscom. They cover domestic ground small package deliveries, as well as domestic and international express small package deliveries.
According to Aeroweb, a defense market intelligence website, FedEx was the 53rd largest DOD contractor and 79th overall government contractor in fiscal 2015.
