Brake Pads for Suburban and Tahoe

The contract solicitation W912HQ26QA015, issued by the U.S. Department of Defense through the Office of W4LD USA Hecsa in Alexandria, Virginia, is a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5 for the procurement of custom brake pads for military training vehicles used at the Summit Point Training Facility in West Virginia. The requirement covers five distinct brake pad assemblies: front pads for Suburban and multiple model years of Tahoe and Yukon, as well as rear pads for Tahoe and Yukon, each identified by specific OEM part numbers including GPX290-R8, GP1910-R8, GP2407-R8, and GP2174-R8. The solicitation is restricted to small businesses under NAICS code 336340, with a response deadline of July 27, 2026, and delivery expected within 45 days of award, FOB Destination at the Summit Point facility. No pricing data is provided in the public documents, and while the total contract value is unlisted, the quantities indicate a significant procurement totaling at least 90 sets of brake components. The Government is responsible for acceptance at the delivery site, and compliance is implied through adherence to exact part numbers and the need for safe vehicle operation in training environments. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, or special requirements are explicitly detailed in the available documentation, though references to attachments suggest additional technical, packaging, or submission details may exist. The absence of Section K means no offeror representations for small business status, socioeconomic certifications, or UEI/CAGE codes are visible, and no inspection criteria, packaging standards, or invoicing protocols are stated. The contracting office, part of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is the point of contact for questions, with Doug Pohlman and Gregory Booker listed as primary and secondary points. While the acquisition appears straightforward—centered on commercial automotive parts for military use—its classification as a small business set-aside and the lack of pricing or detailed administrative guidance indicate that successful bidders must comply with both procurement and socioeconomic rules without clear technical specifications beyond part numbers, relying on full attachments for complete instructions.
