BUILD TWO(2) EQUIPMENT HAULING TRAILERS

The United States Coast Guard Maritime Security Response Team West (MSRTW) has issued a combined synopsis/solicitation, number 70Z08426QDL940025, for a firm-fixed-price contract to build and supply two identical equipment-hauling trailers. This acquisition is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 336212. The trailers are required to transport over $1 million worth of tactical equipment and sensitive weaponry for a 30+ person law enforcement team, necessitating a design capable of both high-speed highway travel and operation over rugged terrain. Key technical specifications include a minimum dimension of 8.5 by 26 feet, reinforced aluminum construction, tandem 7,000 lb. torsion axles, an integrated 10 kW generator, and specialized security features such as dual-locking doors and heavy-duty tail ramps to serve as both transport units and expeditionary staging locations. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical capability, delivery schedule, and price, with the award intended to represent the best value to the government. Interested offerors must submit a technical proposal including detailed schematics, a bill of materials, a binding delivery schedule, and past performance references. The deadline for submission is August 21, 2026, at 5:00 PM PST, though recent amendments have extended the closing and provided additional clarifications. The completed trailers must be delivered to National City, California, no later than October 2026. The contract incorporates various federal regulations, including prohibitions on certain telecommunications equipment and Kaspersky Lab products, as well as requirements for Buy American-Supplies and whistleblower protections.
