K--MA-OFC RFG LE-VEHICLE UPFIT CHEVY TRL BS

The contract, identified by solicitation number 140FS326Q0049, is a firm-fixed price commercial acquisition issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s SAT Team 3 under the Department of the Interior for the upfitting of Chevrolet Trail Boss vehicles to meet federal law enforcement standards. The scope includes installing emergency equipment such as APX radio wiring, overhead lights, sirens, rechargeable flashlights, roof antennae, window tinting, fuse panels, and battery saver systems, all while preserving OEM integrity and adhering to specific technical requirements including 40% window tint, 30-amp inline fuses, and a two-hour battery timer delay. Work must be performed at the vendor’s facility and delivered within 60 calendar days of vehicle receipt, with final delivery occurring at various National Wildlife Refuge locations across the United States under FOB Destination terms. The period of performance runs from May 1, 2026, to May 1, 2027, and the acquisition is fully set aside for Women-Owned Small Businesses, Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses, and 8(a) participants, requiring offerors to maintain active SAM.gov registration with a valid UEI and substantiate their socioeconomic status. Proposals must be submitted via email to Keith Rose, the contracting officer, no later than April 21, 2026, using Standard Form 1449 with mandatory completion of specific blocks and inclusion of key personnel identification and subcontractor disclosures. Evaluation is performance-based with a trade-off methodology where technical experience, capacity, and past performance are significantly more important than price, making this not an LPTA procurement. Offerors must provide three examples of similar federal, state, or local government projects with full documentation and references. Contract administration requires mandatory electronic invoicing through the Invoice Processing Platform, compliance with a suite of FAR clauses including restrictions on Chinese telecommunications, ByteDance applications, Kaspersky products, and unmanned aircraft systems from covered foreign entities, and adherence to warranty and marking requirements that specify warranty details on packing slips when direct labeling is impractical. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination point by the Government, with compliance governed by FAR 52.246-20 and NWRsLE fleet standards. All deliveries must include full warranty information, and the contract imposes no security clearance requirements but mandates strict adherence to prohibitions on subcontractor sales to the government and reporting of executive compensation.
