Earle Kinlaw & Associates, Inc.

Earle Kinlaw & Associates, Inc., doing business as E K A, supplies specialized vehicles and equipment including golf carts, construction machinery, agricultural tractors, and grounds maintenance equipment to federal agencies as a small business prime contractor on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and through a single-award Air Force indefinite delivery contract.

E K A is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation headquartered in Monroe, Georgia, registered in SAM.gov since October 2001. The company competes predominantly full-and-open on delivery orders rather than set-asides, though many individual orders carry total small business set-aside designations. The vendor has worked with 269 distinct federal agencies across recent awards spanning vehicle procurement, equipment supply, and construction machinery delivery.

E K A's primary footprint is on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, which anchors the portfolio with 1,010 task orders valued at $64 million in combined potential value. The vendor also holds a $3.44 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the U.S. Air Force Defense Finance and Accounting Service (awarded September 27, 2023, completion September 26, 2028) to supply approximately 22 Club Car golf carts annually to the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex—a requirements-type vehicle that has generated 20 task orders worth $2.2 million since award. Representative prime work includes a $534.5 million delivery order from the Department of Defense Pacific Region for 30 golf carts (August 2025), a $649.4 million definitive contract from FEMA for an 8,000-pound forklift to the city of Selma, Alabama (September 2023), and a $357.9 million delivery order from the Department of the Army for 950M/821G wheel loaders (July 2023). A secondary Hardware Superstore vehicle carries 333 task orders worth $9.5 million.

Customer concentration is broad but uneven. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service dominates by dollar value (49 awards, $93.7 million combined potential), followed by the Air Force Materiel Command (29 awards, $4.1 million), Army Installation Management Command Southeast Region (29 awards, $2.9 million), Marine Corps (31 awards, $2.3 million), and NPS Southeast Region (51 awards, $2.1 million). By award count, the Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration leads with 78 awards ($1.4 million), followed by the Army (63 awards, $2.1 million) and NPS Southeast Region (51 awards). The top five customers by potential value account for 49% of the combined value across all awards.

Recent activity has declined year over year: 93 awards in 2022, 72 in 2023, 74 in 2024, 48 in 2025, and 17 through early July 2026. Thirteen awards worth $1.3 million combined potential value reach completion in the next twenty-four months, exposing the vendor to modest recompete risk. The portfolio spans 1,724 total awards with $215 million combined potential value and $101.4 million in obligated dollars (47% utilization rate).

The vendor holds no identifiable position on agency-wide GWACs or other multi-agency vehicles beyond the GSA MAS. Recent subcontract work surfaces only two sub-awards: a Triad National Security sub for Los Alamos National Laboratory hydro excavation trailers (March 2025) and a Mantech MGS sub for MIT Lincoln Laboratory research and development vehicles (June 2024)—representing sub-contractor roles rather than sub-management.

Capability concentration runs across light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles. Club Car golf carts (4-person and 6-person transport, Carryall utility variants) anchor recurring Air Force orders. Construction equipment dominates by volume: backhoes, skid steers, compact track loaders, telescopic handlers, and forklifts (ranging from 6,000-pound all-terrain units to 12,000-pound models). Grounds maintenance equipment includes zero-turn mowers, rotary cutters with ROPS, boom mowers, tractor-mounted boom systems, and landscape implements. The top NAICS categories confirm this mix: Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing (477 awards), Construction Machinery Manufacturing (362 awards), and Conveyor and Conveying Equipment Manufacturing (240 awards). PSC codes track parallel: Gardening Implements and Tools (346 awards), Tractors, Wheeled (178), Earth Moving and Excavating Equipment (157), and Motorcycles, Motor Scooters, and Bicycles (144).
