Worksaver Material Handling Equipment Co

Worksaver Material Handling Equipment Co, a woman-owned, veteran-owned small business manufacturer based in Shawnee, Oklahoma, operates as a prime contractor supplying materials handling equipment and specialized defense logistics equipment to the Defense Logistics Agency and other Department of Defense components. The company manufactures platform trailers, warehouse trailers, aircraft towbars, barrier arresting kits, and related ground support equipment, delivering nearly all awards under Total Small Business set-asides or full-and-open competition. Worksaver competes exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards); the company carries no subcontract footprint.

Worksaver's customer concentration is extraordinarily narrow. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division alone accounts for 170 awards (93% of recent volume) worth $5.2 million in combined potential value. The remaining 55 awards distribute across 14 other agencies — the Defense Logistics Agency Distribution and Land and Maritime subdivisions, the Department of the Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command, the United States Marine Corps, and the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command — but these represent marginal volume. Recent representative awards include a $286,209 firm fixed-price purchase order from DLA Troop Support on October 8, 2025 for 77 platform trailers (NSN 3920001654135) destined for DLA Distribution Red River with 152-day delivery, an $80,871 Total Small Business set-aside on March 27, 2026 for 21 platform trailers to the same distribution node, and a $128,737 non-set-aside purchase order from Air Forces Europe and Africa on September 20, 2022 for BAK-12 barrier arresting kit base assembly components manufactured for delivery to Germany.

Worksaver's capability portfolio centers on industrial materials handling equipment under NAICS 333924 (Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing), NAICS 332311 (Prefabricated Metal Building and Component Manufacturing), and NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), with PSC concentration in Material Handling Equipment Nonself-Propelled (150 awards) and Aircraft Ground Servicing Equipment (55 awards). The company holds no seat on GWACs, IDIQs, or BPAs; all awards are transacted as firm fixed-price purchase orders issued directly by customer agencies. Activity has remained sparse in recent years — three awards in 2021, two in 2022, three in 2023, five in 2025, and three in 2026 — with $7.2 million in combined potential value across 225 awards since first federal registration in April 2000. Obligated dollars exceed potential value at $8.4 million, indicating close tracking between quoted and actual fulfillment. Worksaver registered as a federal contractor in May 2001 and has sustained continuous small business set-aside positioning throughout its federal footprint.
