About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency has awarded a sole-source three-month extension of lease services for two straddle carriers to Gregory Poole Equipment under contract SP451024P0028, with the extension effective following the current lease expiration on June 1, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 12.102(a) based on urgent operational need and lack of alternative solutions within the required timeframe. DLA Disposition Services operates the COMBILIFT SC-3 70,000-pound capacity electric straddle carriers at Ft. Riley and Richmond, where they function as the only heavy lift assets available. Ft. Riley utilizes the equipment extensively, averaging nine lifts weekly with 80 hours of operation over five months, nearly double the fleet average. Richmond's container handler is down for repairs with a 90-day lead time; the facility requires heavy lift capability within three months to accept property for reutilization, transfer, and disposal under the Army's Equipment Redistribution and Divestiture Site program. New straddle carriers carry 230-day lead times through GSA Advantage, and transferring a DLA-owned container handler would require five to six months for disassembly, reassembly, and transportation. Loss of heavy lift capability would prevent mission-critical property disposition, directly impacting military operations. The three-month extension is the only viable solution to maintain operational continuity. Place of performance is Ft. Riley and Richmond. The estimated cost is redacted.
