Procurement of Non-Tactical Vehicles

The U.S. Marine Corps Installations Pacific - Regional Contracting Office is pursuing the procurement of a variety of non-tactical vehicles to be delivered to Camp Foster in Okinawa and MCAS Iwakuni in Yamaguchi, Japan. This effort is centered on acquiring new model year, right-hand drive vehicles that fully comply with Japanese Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, including current exhaust emission regulations. The required fleet includes 20-ton refrigerator van-trailers, cargo vans, pickup trucks, aerial boom trucks, forklifts, mini excavators, tractor heads, and other specialized units, all intended for immediate operational use upon delivery. Each vehicle must come with a minimum 12-month manufacturer’s warranty and be supplied in the newest available model and year. Responses to the Sources Sought Notice are required to include a capabilities statement detailing product specifications, manufacturer details, lead times, CAGE code, Unique Entity ID, NAICS codes, and contact information, all submitted via email by the deadline of April 17, 2026. Market research conducted through this notice confirmed multiple commercial vendors are capable of fulfilling the requirement with industry-standard timelines, indicating no specialized or non-commercial development is needed. The Government intends to award a single contract to a qualified vendor capable of supplying all listed items and managing delivery to both Japanese installations. While the current notice serves as a pre-solicitation market research tool and does not include pricing, evaluation criteria, or formal contract clauses, it sets the foundation for a future solicitation that will likely follow a lowest price technically acceptable or trade-off approach. Delivery locations are strictly defined, and the contractor must ensure vehicles meet all Japanese regulatory requirements without exception. Packaging, marking, inspection, and invoicing details are not specified in this notice but will likely be outlined in the forthcoming Request for Quote. The sole point of contact for this presolicitation is Minako Kinjo of MCIPAC-RCO, who is available for inquiries but will not serve as the eventual contracting officer or technical representative for the contract. No set-asides or socioeconomic provisions are indicated, and the NAICS code 441110 confirms this acquisition falls under new car dealerships.
