40HP Surface Drive Outboard Motor Supply

The contract requires the supply of a new, commercially available 40HP surface drive outboard motor designed specifically for shallow-water mud boat operations, ensuring suitability for demanding environments where traditional propeller systems are ineffective. The motor must be an OEM product with full manufacturer warranty and accompanying documentation to verify authenticity, performance specifications, and compliance with operational standards. It is intended for integration into a custom-built aluminum boat, necessitating compatibility with the vessel’s mounting system, fuel delivery, and control interfaces without requiring major modifications. This is a subcontract under the agency jurisdiction of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, with a posting date of July 24, 2026, and a response deadline of August 7, 2026. The North American Industry Classification System code 333611 confirms the scope as related to boat building and repair. The motor must be delivered and ready for immediate installation, with all necessary technical and warranty materials provided in a format acceptable for federal and state procurement compliance. Performance is expected to meet or exceed industry standards for durability, fuel efficiency, and reliability in muddy, high-obstacle water conditions, and all components must be new, unmodified, and sourced from a recognized and reputable manufacturer.
