F -- Northern Rockies Refrigerated Trailer Unit(s) for Incident Support

The Northern Rockies intends to solicit for Refrigerated Units for the purpose of wildland firefighting, all risk incident and severity support. In order to receive an Emergency Equipment Rental Agreement (EERA) for this, vendors must respond to and meet the requirements of this solicitation. Standard specifications are being utilized in the solicitation to provide consistency in equipment nationwide. EERAs will be three year agreements. There may not be another opportunity to sign up this equipment until the end of the stated agreement period. It will be at the Governments discretion to re-solicit during the award period for equipment if it is determined that there are insufficient resources available for incident support. Solicitation will only be available electronically by downloading from FBO and will not be mailed out hardcopy. To be considered for award, vendors must maintain a current registration in the Central Contractor?s Registration System (http://www.ccr.gov). This registration must be updated annually. This is a small business set-aside. The method of award will utilize a cascade set-aside procedure which includes set aside requirements for HUBZone small business concerns, and Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business concerns. If you are interested in signing up any other type of equipment for an EERA, please contact your local Government agencies with resource protection authority. This may include, but is not limited to, local Forest Service offices, Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation offices, Bureau of Land Management offices, Bureau of Indian Affairs offices, or Idaho Department of Land offices.
