Workhorse secures GSA contract, expanding access to its ZEVs for government and public sector fleets

Nov. 26, 2024
This milestone allows federal government agencies to streamline procurement of Workhorse's electric commercial vehicles in the W56 platform.

Workhorse Group has been added to the GSA Schedule by being awarded a General Services Administration Government Fleet Contract through its dealer, Colonial Fleet Electrification. This milestone allows federal government agencies to streamline procurement of Workhorse's electric commercial vehicles in the W56 platform. This designation follows a review of Workhorse’s production capabilities, quality systems, testing and inspection processes, and manufacturing standards at the company’s Union City, Indiana, facility, known as the Workhorse Ranch.

“Securing a GSA contract is a major milestone that underscores our ability to meet the needs of government fleets with robust, reliable, and durable commercial electric vehicles while also reinforcing the strength of our company and products,” Ryan Gaul, Workhorse president, commercial vehicles, said. “This contract empowers us to provide government agencies that may choose to purchase our products with the vehicles they need to achieve their operational goals through the purchase of our vehicles, which we proudly design and manufacture in the heartland of America.”

Workhorse’s addition to the GSA Schedule complements the company’s growing network of cooperative purchasing agreements, making its vehicles more accessible to public sector fleets across the U.S. These partnerships include:

  • Sourcewell: A nationwide cooperative purchasing program supporting municipalities, school districts, and nonprofits.
  • Florida Sheriff's Association Purchasing Program: Serving police departments and municipal fleets in Florida and across the U.S.
  • OMNIA Partners: Offering vehicle procurement through Workhorse’s lending partner Doering Fleet Management.
  • PASSPort: The City of New York's end-to-end digital procurement platform, providing vehicles through Workhorse’s dealer Burr Truck.
