Eighty aluminum rail spanners are required to support the Army Power Projection Platform at the Campbell Rail Operations Facility in Fort Campbell, Kentucky, designed to enable the safe loading of self-propelled vehicles, towed trailers, and other rolling stock onto military and commercial railcars. Each spanner must be 72 inches long and 24 inches wide, weigh no more than 80 pounds, and feature a 2-inch-high stub toe and an improved kicker plate constructed from aluminum tubes with 3-inch tapered gussets to ensure durability and prevent failure over time. The pair of spanners must support a maximum single axle load of 40,000 pounds, with each individual unit rated for 20,000 pounds on a single or dually wheel no wider than 24 inches and no taller than 4 inches. The design must maintain a minimum 2-to-1 safety factor, meaning failure occurs only under loads exceeding 80,000 pounds per pair, determined by permanent deformation of the aluminum material. Each unit must include a permanently etched specifications plate listing the manufacturer’s part number, vendor contact details, rated capacity, and a safety statement requiring support at least 12 inches at each end. Fabrication must be performed by an American Welding Society–certified welder, and the units must be compatible with all standard railcar types, designed for two-person lift and placement. The contract is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 331315, solicited under number W911S226U3377 with a response deadline of June 12, 2026, and is managed by the Department of Defense through the Fort Drum office in New York, with Sandra Elias as the primary point of contact.
