USTRANSCOM is conducting market research via Request for Information TRANSCOM27C001 to identify CARB-approved commercial passenger airlift carriers operating under FAA Part 121 or Part 135. The objective is to establish turnkey transportation services for passengers, baggage, Government-furnished weapons, and Hazard Class 1.4S ammunition across recurring Pacific routes. Primary operations include two round trips per month from Honolulu, HI (PHNL) to Wake Island Airfield (PWAK) for up to 39 passengers, and two round trips per month from Honolulu to Kwajalein Atoll (PKWA) for up to 12 passengers. A combined routing option (PHNL-PWAK-PKWA-PHNL) is also being evaluated for operational and fuel efficiency. The scope of work requires the contractor to provide all aircraft, flight and cabin crews, maintenance, dispatch, and operational support. Because ground support equipment is strictly limited at PWAK and PKWA, carriers must demonstrate self-sufficiency for turnaround operations. Eligible respondents include businesses of all sizes under NAICS codes 481111 and 481211, with a small business size standard of 1,500 employees. Interested vendors must submit a response not exceeding 12 pages to the primary point of contact, Brenda Marshall, by 16:00 Central Time on November 13, 2026.
