Darley Wins DOD Prime Vendor Contract

W.S. Darley & Co. announced it has been awarded five major contracts from the Defense Supply Center Philadelphia. The award is potentially worth up to $4 billion over the next two to five years.

Historically referred to as the prime vendor contracts, Darley will provide tailored logistics support for fire and emergency services to the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, federal civilian agencies, and state and local governments. Darley received indefinite-quantity, indefinite-delivery, multiple-vendor contracts covering all five regions. Each contract has a maximum value of $800 million.

“There were 12 bidders, and we are proud to have been selected to serve our country’s military forces," said company president Paul C. Darley. "We have worked closely with the Department of Defense for about 70 years, and began working on this contract over four years ago.” The contracts have a two-year base period, followed by three one-year options.
