STRATAGEM Aviation has worked with airports and FBO's across the country, and even internationally - negotiating hangar, maintenance, fuel and related service/support agreements for clients.

STRATAGEM has successfully identified, captured and managed a variety of Government Ops-related revenue projects for clients such as this multi-year, fixed contract with the U.S. Marshals Service, JPATS division which provides special Ops air charter transport services domestically and internationally.

STRATAGEM Principal Eric Giangiordano was retained by a client to lead their fixed-wing contract capture, management and aircraft acquisition with award winning air medical transport consortium Boston MedFlight - including the operational, budgeting and maintenance modeling for the lease/purchase of their late-model King Air B200 and all associated multi-year legal contracts/negotiations between multiple parties.

STRATAGEM Aviation has designed numerous custom exterior paint/graphic schemes for prominent individual, corporate and fixed-contract clients; this Learjet 35A, one of the last 16 produced, was one of the first acquisition/upfit projects developed by our Principal some years ago for a corporate client, including its one-of-a-kind paint scheme. It has been frequently photographed, referenced online as one of the nicest looking Learjets in the world, and even emulated by other aircraft owners/paint shops!

May 2005 - NAS Oceana - VF-101 "Grim Reapers" VIP Visit/F-14 Demo Flight with NASCAR Champion Brian Vickers (shown Left to Right, Eric Giangiordano - STRATAGEM Principal, John "Rocco" Tangredi - lead flight instructor VF-101 and driver Brian Vickers)

USN BuNo (bureau number) #164601 – F-14D variant maintained as VF-101 squadron’s “show plane” for VIP and related purposes, hence why it had the brighter livery compared to active combat service Tomcats.

VF-101 pilots, RIOs and special guest passenger Brian Vickers; the VF-101 "Grim Reapers" squadron was officially disestablished or decommissioned just 4 months following this flight on 9/15/05 in an air show/ceremony at Naval Air Station (NAS) Oceana; BuNo #164601 was subsequently flown on its final ever flight to CA for its permanent retired location – Castle Air Museum. The last two active duty Tomcat squadrons (VF-31 and VF-213) completed their combat mission tours on the USS Theodore Roosevelt by early 2006, marking the end of the legendary F-14 Tomcat fleet's operation by the U.S. Navy.

EXTERIOR - Before/After: this transformational Learjet exterior redesign including the colors and marks was developed by STRATAGEM's Principal for AeroMD - the first/only USVI-based air ambulance company. Utilizing the client's primary logo with a combination of detailed paint and graphic accents, the project delivered a state-of-the-art result with greater flexibility, less expense and significantly reduced downtime than an entirely new paint job.

STRATAGEM has worked with clients to secure and manage U.S. Department of Defense, Commercial Airlift Review Board (CARB) certification. We've also directly managed RFI, RFQ and RFP contracting for BPA/IDIQ contract capture and post-award contract management for clients with the U.S. military branches and other DOD agencies including USTRANSCOM for air medical, special ops and other missions.

INTERIOR - Air Medical - Before/After: another transformational upfit project, STRATAGEM was tasked with designing and project managing a 145CRS' redo of a light jet's dated/worn interior to a like-new aesthetics, complete with custom 2-tone seats, sidewalls and various other details tailored to the client's specific operational needs.

STRATAGEM was one of the first companies to introduce QR code graphics on aircraft designs, facilitating additional marketing opportunities for viewers both in-person and online. Our Principal worked with a client on the lease/management of this particular Learjet owned by an NFL Hall-of-Fame player, and subsequently coordinated with that player's management to successfully divest the asset.

STRATAGEM has worked with Part 91, 125, 135 and 145CRS owners and operators to manage scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, pre-purchase, sale and upfit/update/mod projects on a diverse variety of turbine jet aircraft.

Our Principal has held executive roles developing and managing a variety of corporate charter programs and Part 91/125 flight departments for clients operating 30-50+ Pax aircraft such as the Dornier 328 and Embraer/Bombardier regional jets.

STRATAGEM has worked with clients utilizing the industry's leading fractional programs such as NetJets and can provide objective counsel on best options for charter, fractional and wholly-owned aviation business models.

Because STRATAGEM has worked with MROs both directly as clients - and representing other aircraft owners/operators, we have unique insight into objectively vetting the best maintenance facility options to perform scheduled or unscheduled light to heavy maintenance events. We've also consulted with Part 145CRS on their business operations and understand how to effectively work with DOMs and A&Ps to resolve projects in an effective, cost-efficient and timely manner!

Conducting business with most United States federal agencies requires a company to be SAM-registered and typically awarded a GSA Schedule; STRATAGEM is well-versed with advising clients on how to navigate, secure and successfully render GSA-related contracts with federal government agencies.
