About FEDERAL EXPRESS CORPORATION federal contract activity
FEDERAL EXPRESS CORPORATION (CAGE 1SB34, UEI KQWXKVLGRZ96) recorded 6,713 awards totaling $4.90 billion over the last 10 years, with an average award value of $729,698.09. The profile is highly concentrated in a small number of transportation-related awards, indicating a large-volume, service-driven procurement relationship rather than a broad spread of contract types.
Agency mix and customer concentration
USTRANSCOM accounts for nearly all activity, with 6,697 awards and $4.90 billion obligated, making the vendor’s federal footprint overwhelmingly dependent on a single agency customer. The remaining agencies contribute only marginally, including the National Institutes of Health, Federal Prison Industries, Indian Health Service, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, each representing negligible share by obligation.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
The NAICS profile is dominated by 481211, Nonscheduled Chartered Passenger Air Transportation, which represents essentially the full obligation base at $4.90 billion across 6,690 awards. Secondary codes are immaterial by comparison, led by 481212, Nonscheduled Chartered Freight Air Transportation, followed by much smaller activity in Couriers and Express Delivery Services, Broadwoven Fabric Mills, and Postal Service.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Annual obligations rose sharply in 2021 through 2023, increasing from $511.84 million in 2021 to $734.45 million in 2022 and $843.22 million in 2023. Activity then declined to $293.15 million in 2024, and 2025 shows a negative obligated value of $2.99 million with 26 awards, which may reflect deobligations or data adjustments in the current period.
