The 100th Logistical Readiness Squadron (100 LRS) is seeking a modular portable cargo loading ramp to enhance its operational capabilities in offloading wheeled assets, particularly in areas lacking level cargo docks. This need arises from ongoing challenges with cargo deliveries, specifically flatbed trailers, leading to potential delays in operations. The ramp must be capable of handling loads up to 50 short tons, adjustable for various vehicle wheelbases, and suitable for trailer heights up to 58 inches. Additionally, it should be transportable on a 463L pallet with maximum dimensions of 88” x 108” x 88” when disassembled. The contractor is required to provide all necessary materials and services, including a minimum one-year warranty, demonstration, and user training upon delivery to Building 582, RAF Mildenhall, UK. This initiative aims to improve the efficiency and reliability of cargo movement and align with the squadron's logistical support mission.
