Expandable Container Mechanical Systems

This subcontract for Expandable Container Mechanical Systems involves the design and installation of electro-mechanically raisable and lowerable roof systems and 3-for-1 expandable container mechanisms. Supporting DLA Troop Support projects, the scope of work requires engineering lift systems utilizing structural framing and electro-mechanical actuators to increase internal height from 43 to 78 inches and expand total floorspace to 120 square feet. The primary objective is the delivery of a functional expandable container frame capable of no-tool deployment within a six-minute window. Performance for this Department of Defense initiative is centered in Natick, with a response deadline set for November 4, 2026.
