Garco Wemco A Joint Venture

Garco Wemco A Joint Venture is a for-profit partnership registered in SAM.gov since June 2018 and headquartered in Spokane, Washington. The joint venture specializes in crane rehabilitation, replacement, and construction services for federal water resource infrastructure, including dams, locks, hydroelectric facilities, and other federal installations. Garco Wemco has demonstrated significant capability in managing complex infrastructure modernization projects across multiple federal agencies, particularly the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Defense, and maintains a portfolio of substantial indefinite delivery contracts valued at approximately $209.4 million.

Garco Wemco A Joint Venture has been awarded 15 prime federal contract delivery orders and definitive contracts totaling approximately $74.3 million since 2021. The firm's work encompasses the procurement, design, fabrication, installation, and rehabilitation of overhead bridge cranes, gantry cranes, intake cranes, navigation lock cranes, and auxiliary hoists ranging from 20-ton to 65-ton capacities, along with associated infrastructure modifications such as spillway gate rehabilitation, access upgrades, and structural repairs. Recent major awards include a $10.16 million contract from the Western Area Power Administration for rehabilitation of the bridge crane at Albeni Falls Dam powerhouse in Idaho, a $4.23 million delivery order from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for spillway hoist upgrades at Umatilla in Oregon, a $10.78 million contract for intake gantry crane replacement at Fort Randall Dam in South Dakota, and a $411,200 delivery order from the U.S. Marine Corps for procurement and installation of a 20-ton overhead bridge crane at Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow. The majority of Garco Wemco's contract awards have been issued without small business set-asides, reflecting the joint venture's competitive position in open federal procurements, with one exception being a $5.92 million small business set-aside task order for Bulls Shoals Bridge Crane rehabilitation in Arkansas. The company has consistently delivered firm fixed-price contracts with completion dates extending through 2028, demonstrating its ability to manage long-duration, high-value infrastructure projects.

Garco Wemco A Joint Venture holds three prime indefinite delivery contracts with a combined ceiling value of $209.4 million. The largest is the $99.9 million Northwestern Division Crane Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) awarded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, effective through September 2026, which authorizes crane construction and rehabilitation services across 12 Midwestern and Western states and has generated numerous task orders including projects at McNary Lock and Dam, Big Bend Dam, Fort Randall Dam, Garrison Dam, Bonneville Lock, and various other federal water resource facilities. The second is a $60 million multiple-award indefinite delivery contract awarded by Naval Facilities Engineering Command in June 2023 with performance through June 2028 for large capacity weight handling equipment such as bridge cranes, portal cranes, jib cranes, and gantry cranes with capacities of 15 tons or greater, designated as a total small business set-aside contract. The third is a $49.5 million multiple-award indefinite delivery contract awarded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers effective through December 2026 for crane rehabilitation, replacement, and construction services across the Southwestern Division region, also designated as a total small business set-aside contract. These three IDVs position Garco Wemco as a primary provider for federal crane and lifting equipment services across multiple regions and agencies, enabling the company to respond to task order solicitations for specialized crane infrastructure work at federal installations nationwide.
