Survey Equipment Purchase

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Office at Fort Stewart, Georgia, is conducting market research to identify potential sources for the procurement of a comprehensive Land Survey Equipment Kit, with no intent to solicit bids at this time. The requirement seeks equipment comparable to or better than the Trimble R980 system, including 18 units of the R980 GNSS receiver configured for base and rover modes, along with nine TSC710 controllers, associated batteries, hard cases, mounting clamps, cradles, and supporting accessories such as carbon fiber rover rods, bipods, pole bags, and dual clamp tripods. The full kit also includes nine R10 base kits, radio transceivers with power and PC cables, transport cases, antenna kits operating in the 410-430 MHz range, field battery and charger kits, and specialized hardware like the Trimble Tribrach with optical plummet and transition adapters. All components are required in quantities to support a full operational team, with critical software licenses and extended warranty coverage included for both hardware and software. The contract opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 423490 and is managed under solicitation number PANMCC-26-P-0000050985. Responses are due by August 15, 2026, and must be submitted through the SAM.gov portal. Primary point of contact is Jack Konrat at the U.S. Army installation in Fort Stewart, reachable via phone or email. The requirement includes essential extended service coverage: five-year premium support for data collectors and GNSS receivers, one-year subscriptions for Trimble Access software and radio hardware support, and a three-year priority support plan for the survey team. The equipment must be capable of robust RTK operations in field environments and fully compatible with existing Trimble ecosystem standards, ensuring interoperability, reliability, and long-term serviceability across all components.
