Agility DGS Awarded Army Vehicle Storage Contracts
Separate Wins as Prime and Subcontractor Valued at $128 Million
HUNTSVILLE, Ala., July 10, 2009 – Agility Defense & Government Services (DGS), a leading provider of integrated logistics, supply chain management and commodity services, won three vehicle-storage contracts awarded by the U.S. Army Installation Management Command (IMCOM).
Each award has a one-year base and four one-year options. They are worth a combined $128 million over five years.
Under the $42 million Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) Storage Services-East contract, Agility DGS will act as the prime contractor and will be responsible for storage of deployed soldiers’ vehicles at U.S. Army bases in the eastern United States. The bases are: Ft. Drum, Ft. Stewart, Ft. Benning, Ft. Polk, Ft. Bragg and Ft. Campbell. The main subcontractor on the POV Storage Services-East contract will be Fayetteville VPC.
Under the $31 million POV Storage Services-Hawaii contract, Agility DGS will act as the prime contractor and will be responsible for storage of deployed soldiers’ vehicles at Schofield Barracks, a U.S. Army installation in Hawaii. The main subcontractor on the POV Storage Services-Hawaii contract will be Dawson Group, Inc.
Agility DGS will work as subcontractor on the $55 million POV Storage Services-West contract, which was awarded to a team led by SDV Command Source, LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business. The team includes subcontractors Ready One and Skookum, which are both AbilityOne companies. It will be responsible for storage of deployed soldiers’ vehicles at U.S. Army bases in the western United States: Ft. Hood, Ft. Riley, Ft. Sill, Ft. Carson, Ft. Bliss and Ft. Lewis.
“These awards broaden Agility DGS’s service offerings and mark our first wins with IMCOM. Storage of private vehicles is another logistics solution we are able to offer to our customers,” said Dan Mongeon, president and CEO of Agility DGS. “These contracts build on the broad capabilities we’re able to provide in the continental United States, where we also manage parts for the U.S. Army at the Tobyhanna Army Depot and personal equipment for the U.S. Marine Corps at 19 bases here and abroad.”

ITAR screws up DoD contract
Filed under: ABB Bomem, Canada, Federal Budget Process, production program
According to this article, a Canadian company, ABB Bomem Inc., was a subcontractor to a US firm making a system for the US military. It needed parts from an American company that were delayed several months due to the International Trafficking in Arms Regulations (ITAR). ITAR is a complicated legal process governing the export of American weapons and components to foreign entities. Since the Clinton scandals of the Nineties they have been ramped up a lot. Of course with the international integration of the worlds defense production they have also made it harder for US companies to do business with foreign nations and companies, as well as making it worse for foreign companies trying to get in to the large US market. This is why BAE, EADS and Finemeccanica are trying to buy US companies. Since they are already in the US and are considered American it makes it easier to operate under the ITAR.
