Solicitation # SPRPA126RVC30

This solicitation is for the procurement of aluminum shipping containers, specifically part number 20140, to be manufactured according to Champion Company drawings. The contract is being extended to October 13, 2026, to promote competition.

Each container must feature a Unique Identification marking on a nameplate and include a specific amount of desiccant based on interior volume. A critical component of this contract is the First Article Testing (FAT) process, which includes dimensional inspections, a form and fit check with a T408-GE-400 engine, and a rigorous 18-inch free-fall drop test followed by pneumatic leak testing. New manufacturers may be subject to pre-award surveys and post-award conferences. While the government estimates first article testing costs at 12,000 dollars, all costs associated with the submission and shipment of FAT samples are the responsibility of the contractor.
