38--MI PENDILLS CRK NFH SNOW BLOWERS

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, through SAT Team 2, is seeking to procure two high-flow snow blowers for use at the Pendills Creek National Fish Hatchery in Brimley, Michigan, under solicitation 140FS226Q0107. The requirements specify one 72-inch model compatible with the John Deere 324E Skid Steer and one 84-inch model compatible with the John Deere 326D Loader, both featuring electric-over-hydraulic chute control with 270° rotation, hydraulic flow rates of 27–35 gpm at ≤3,500 psi, and a 14-pin Deutsch electrical connector for seamless integration. Items must be fully assembled, operational upon delivery, and delivered no later than June 30, 2026, to 21990 West Trout Lane under FOB destination terms, meaning the contractor assumes all transportation responsibility and risk until delivery. Compliance with the internal technical specifications outlined in the “Specifications Snow Blowers Pendills” attachment is mandatory and carries greater weight than price in evaluation. The acquisition is conducted under the NAICS code 333112 for construction machinery manufacturing and follows the Buy American Act and sustainable product requirements under FAR 52.223-23, mandating use of EPA, USDA BioPreferred, and ENERGY STAR® qualified components where applicable. The contract evaluation process prioritizes technical conformance over price and includes consideration of past performance and delivery lead time as part of a best-value trade-off determination, allowing the Government to select the most advantageous offer regardless of lowest price. Offerors must represent their size status as small or other-than-small and certify compliance with all socioeconomic program requirements, including WOSB, SDVOSB, and HUBZone designations if applicable. Submissions must be made via email to Jeremy Riva at [email hidden] by May 27, 2026, and must include the UEI, CAGE code if applicable, and completed SF-1449 with pricing. All items must be clearly marked with country of origin and delivery location, and invoices must be submitted electronically through the Department of Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform, not WAWF. The contract includes standard FAR clauses addressing whistleblower rights, anti-trafficking, equal opportunity, electronic payments, and prohibition of internal confidentiality agreements that obstruct government oversight.
