J--The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Region 2 Heavy Equipment Maintenance and Re

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Region 2, is seeking qualified vendors through a sources-sought notice for a 10-year Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to provide heavy equipment maintenance and repair services across Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. This BPA will enable authorized personnel—including refuge staff who have completed government purchase or fleet card training, budget specialists, and Department of the Interior personnel operating within their warrant authority—to request maintenance, diagnostics, repairs, and part replacements for a wide array of heavy equipment and implements. Services may be performed either in a vendor’s shop or on-site at the location of the equipment, covering technical areas such as fluid and filtration systems, electronics, coolant systems, hydrostatic systems, steering and brake components, engine and powertrain assemblies, paint and bodywork, glass, undercarriages on tracked vehicles, and any operating system related to equipment or attachments. Work must be preceded by a formal diagnosis and estimate submitted to refuge staff or the contracting officer for approval before any repairs commence. All vendor invoices must be supported by delivery tickets that include the supplier’s name, date of service, itemized list of supplies or services, quantity, unit price, and total extension for each line item. Purchase actions by individual field station personnel are capped at $2,500 per call, with any amount exceeding this threshold requiring compliance with formal BPA procedures. The Government’s financial obligation is strictly limited to authorized purchases actually made under the agreement, with no predetermined ceiling or estimated contract value specified. The onboarding clause is specifically requested to be included in the BPA to ensure vendor integration into federal systems and processes. The solicitation, numbered 140F0S26Q0035, was published on May 20, 2026, with responses due by June 3, 2026, and is managed by the Department of the Interior through the office located in Falls Church, Virginia. The contract will support the operational readiness of federal equipment essential to wildlife conservation and land management activities across four states.
