About Crown Equipment Corp

Crown Equipment Corp, operating through its Government Sales Department Division as Crown Lift Trucks, supplies material handling equipment — forklifts, pallet jacks, reach trucks, walkie stackers, stock pickers, tow tractors, and related warehouse accessories — to the federal government as a prime contractor across 240 customer agencies, with no subcontracting footprint and no small-business set-aside posture.

Crown is a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in New Bremen, Ohio, competing entirely in full-and-open procurements and competing predominantly through task orders placed against existing IDCs and GSA Multiple Award Schedule vehicles rather than through competitive solicitations. The vendor maintains nine named subsidiaries including Crown Gabelstapler GMBH & CO. KG (German operations) and Crown Lift Trucks limited entities.

Crown's federal award footprint is anchored by a single $433 million indefinite delivery contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division, awarded December 2023 and running through November 2028, under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule vehicle. This IDC alone accounts for the vast majority of Crown's federal pipeline — 137 awards from DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment carry $1.77 billion combined potential value, representing 86% of Crown's total federal potential value across all 1,211 awards in the source data. Crown received 72 task orders under the older IDC (SPE8EC18D0023) before the new vehicle launched; recent delivery orders under the current vehicle range from $13,817 to $261,934 per order, with representative recent work including a $149,282 forklift order (September 2025), a $51,159 forklift order (October 2025), a $147,258 forklift delivery order (May 2025), and a $84,000 Marine Corps forklift repair contract (September 2024). Crown also holds seats on multiple other DLA IDCs (SPM50002D0037, SPE8EC24D0024, SP050002D0037) generating 66, 18, and 14 task orders respectively in the source data, and maintains a broad GSA MAS footprint with 750 task orders across the Multiple Award Schedule generating $16.2 million combined potential value.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division accounts for 137 awards and $1.77 billion combined potential value (23% of award count, 86% of potential value). The second-largest customer by potential value — DLA Troop Support Hardware — carries only $5.3 million across 46 awards. Non-DLA customers include the United States Marine Corps (33 awards, $1.7 million), the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command (17 awards, $540 thousand), and the Department of State Bureau of African Affairs (13 awards, $525 thousand), but these represent marginal volume relative to the DLA relationship. Crown serves customers across PSC codes for warehouse trucks and tractors (365 awards), miscellaneous materials handling equipment (211 awards), and nonself-propelled material handling equipment (157 awards), with NAICS concentration in Ornamental and Architectural Metal Work Manufacturing (750 awards), Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing (195 awards), and Construction Machinery Manufacturing (59 awards).

Award activity has declined year over year — 33 awards in 2021 declining to 11 in 2025 — though this trend reflects the shift from transactional purchase orders to multi-year task-order vehicles under the December 2023 DLA IDC. The combined potential value obligated across all awards is $48.7 million against $2.07 billion combined potential value, indicating that most awards remain in task-order ceiling form rather than invoiced spend. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal: only one award ($2 thousand) reaches ultimate completion inside that window.

Crown subcontracts rarely; the source names two sub-awards only — a $3 thousand 3,000-pound forklift order under Chugach Technical Solutions LLC (November 2025) and material handling equipment for MIT Lincoln Laboratory under Valkyrie Enterprises LLC (October 2024) — representing less than 0.2% of Crown's activity footprint. Crown's federal role is nearly entirely as a direct prime supplier to logistics and warehouse operations across defense and civilian agencies, with no meaningful subcontractor relationships to larger primes.
