Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail)
This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent and/or closely related prior contract history with ARI Phoenix, which received multiple awards in 2023–2024 for ARI HETRA shop equipment items that align with the current AMSA 12 Shop Equipment list. For example, ARI Phoenix was awarded contracts W911S223P0896 ($216,097), W911S223P0903 ($150,736), and W911S223P0696 ($134,797) with prior award descriptions tied to the ARI HETRA BPW-9-4-AJ wireless mobile column lift, and it also received W911S223P1162 ($51,852) for the ARI HETRA WS-1945-PKG2 military floor jack. These prior purchases appear to be like a continuation because they reference the same branded/part-numbered lift and jack components included in the current solicitation’s SOW.
