Eastern R&E CO. LTD

Eastern R&E CO. LTD, a South Korea-based manufacturer of heavy-duty military rail cars, holds a single-customer federal prime contracting footprint with the Department of the Army Pacific Command. The company competes in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designation; all five recent federal awards derive from competitive evaluation on a lowest-priced, technically acceptable basis. Eastern R&E is a for-profit corporate entity headquartered in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, with production and performance entirely in-country.

The vendor's federal capability is specialized and narrow: manufacturing flat rail cars engineered to transport M1 and M88 tanks, with secondary work in rail car maintenance and deck replacement. The company holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (W90VN924D0015) valued at $12.78 million, awarded May 20, 2024, running through December 31, 2026, under which three delivery orders totaling $9.3 million have been placed. Recent representative work includes a $3.17 million delivery order for heavy-duty flat rail car manufacture awarded December 31, 2024 (performance through March 31, 2026), a $3.05 million delivery order extension exercising the second option period awarded January 1, 2026 (performance through December 31, 2026 with safety upgrades including guard rails and safety bars), and a $3.08 million modification extending performance by one month through September 30, 2025. Complementary work includes a $753,496 definitive contract awarded November 4, 2022 for wood deck replacement on 30 rail cars at Camp Carroll, Korea.

Customer concentration is complete: the Department of the Army Pacific Command accounts for all five awards and all $22.8 million in combined potential value. Only $3.1 million in combined potential value faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months; the remainder is anchored to the base IDC framework extending through December 2026. Eastern R&E has not pursued or secured sub-contract positions, and holds no parent vehicle positions beyond its single Army Pacific IDIC. The vendor has no federal grant recipients, no SBA designations, and no subcontractor teaming relationships in the source.
