About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services has awarded a sole-source purchase contract to Gregory Poole Equipment for one COMBILIFT SC-3 70,000 lbs Capacity Electric Straddle Carrier on August 14, 2026, with a firm-fixed-price of $273,750.02 after credit for paid lease rentals.
The justification cites FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), single responsible source other than full and open competition, based on urgent operational need and lack of viable alternatives. The straddle carrier is the only heavy lift asset at Fort Riley, averaging nine lifts per week. Loss of this capability would prevent unloading of property for Reutilization, Transfer, and Disposal operations, directly impacting the Army's Equipment Redistribution and Divestiture Site program and creating risks of property backlog, security vulnerabilities, and disruption to scrap sales revenue. The equipment is currently leased under contract SP4510-25-P-0028, expiring September 1, 2026. Alternative procurement routes are impractical: new equipment from GSA Advantage requires 230 days and costs $333,255.06, while transferring a container handler would require 5–6 months and significant disassembly and reassembly work. The purchase yields total cost avoidance of approximately $73,649.98 through applied lease credits and elimination of disassembly and removal costs. Place of performance is Fort Riley. The contract includes FAR 52.207-5, Option to Purchase Equipment.
