The contract calls for the design, build, and installation of a fully functional pump operator’s panel tailored for fire apparatus operations, including integrated gauges, controls, and clear labeling to ensure safe and efficient use during emergency responses. The scope requires adherence to industry standards for durability, readability, and operational reliability under high-stress conditions, with all components fabricated and assembled to meet the specific demands of fire suppression systems. The panel must be engineered for seamless integration into existing fire apparatus designs and must withstand environmental extremes common in wildland and structural firefighting scenarios. The solicitation is issued as a subcontract under NAICS code 334510, targeting manufacturers or builders specializing in fire equipment instrumentation, with responses due by August 19, 2026. The work is to be performed at a location identified by the zip code 80742, though the precise city and state are not specified. The contracting agency is the USDA Forest Service, operating under the Department of Agriculture, indicating this panel will support wildland firefighting efforts. Interested parties must submit proposals by the deadline without the benefit of a set-aside program, and all submissions must demonstrate technical capability, quality assurance processes, and prior experience in delivering similar firefighter control systems.
