Battery System Supply and Integration

The contract involves the supply and integration of high-capacity lithium-ion battery packs into yard tractor chassis, with a focus on seamless interoperability and performance under heavy-duty port operations. Key elements include the design and implementation of advanced thermal management systems to ensure battery safety and longevity in high-temperature industrial environments, as well as the development of a robust, standards-compliant charging interface capable of supporting rapid and frequent charge cycles required for 24/7 terminal operations. The solution must be engineered to meet the demanding durability and reliability needs of port logistics while minimizing downtime and maximizing energy efficiency. The scope is structured as a subcontract under the Harbor Department of the Port of Los Angeles, with a solicitation posted on June 19, 2026, and a mandatory response deadline of July 28, 2026. The project falls under NAICS code 335912, indicating classification within other electrical equipment and component manufacturing. Performance is expected to occur in Los Angeles, and the work is targeted toward advancing zero-emission freight movement within one of the nation’s busiest port facilities. Bidders must demonstrate technical expertise in battery system integration, thermal engineering, and charging infrastructure tailored to heavy equipment applications, with an emphasis on scalable, maintainable designs suitable for fleet-wide deployment.
