Eagle Systems Named as a Prime Contractor on a $23B U.S. Army Logistics Contract Vehicle

Oct. 30, 2012 - PRLog -- The U.S. Army Sustainment Command has selected Eagle Systems, A Columbia Group Company (Eagle Systems), to compete for future opportunities to provide maintenance operations, supply support and transportation services through its new Enhanced Army Global Logistics Enterprise (EAGLE) contract vehicle. Eagle Systems is one of 38 large businesses awarded this contract vehicle.

The Army’s Directorate of Logistics organizations, as well as other groups within the branch, will be able to use EAGLE for sustainment services, including transporting and maintaining equipment in theater, resetting equipment so it’s ready when needed, training soldiers on equipment prior to deployment, tracking and inventorying stock, and monitoring shelf life to ensure equipment serviceability and parts accountability and availability. As a prime contractor, Eagle Systems will have the opportunity to submit bids on individual task orders issued by the U.S. Army.

The EAGLE program is structured through a Basic Ordering Agreement. The BOA has a potential ceiling value of $23 billion for all contractors over its five-year period of performance. Work will be performed at multiple Army installations across the country and worldwide. The program will replace the Field and Installations Readiness Support Team (FIRST) contract and consolidate several others as the Army’s primary Basic Ordering Agreement for maintenance, supply, and transportation support services for the U.S. Army and its partners.

Headquartered in Lawton, Ok, with offices in Washington, D.C., Eagle Systems has more than 25 years of experience serving as one of the U.S. Army’s top logistics services providers. Eagle Systems has successfully supported multiple programs like those that will be awarded under EAGLE, including logistics support for Forts Benning, McCoy, Hood, and Bragg.
