RFI Water Tanker Truck Repair

This Request for Information (RFI) is issued by the Air Force Test Center (AFTC) at Edwards Air Force Base, California, on behalf of the 412 Logistics Readiness Squadron, Vehicle Management Flight (412 LRS/LGRV). The primary objective is to conduct market research and identify capable sources to replace the agent water tank assembly and associated components on a Fire Department Water Tender (registration number 11L00144). The vehicle's existing tank has suffered diminished structural integrity, resulting in leaks and physical damage that exceeds the repair capabilities of base technicians. The Air Force anticipates awarding a firm-fixed-price contract under NAICS code 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance) and PSC J036. Active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) is required. Interested vendors are requested to submit a capability statement of no more than five double-spaced pages in Microsoft Word format. Submissions must include the vendor's business size, CAGE code/DUNS, relevant government or commercial experience, and contact details, alongside any recommendations for the acquisition strategy. Responses must be emailed to Contract Specialist Brian Wu and Contracting Officer Rebecca Snyder no later than July 16, 2026, at 1:00 P.M. PST.

This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines the requirements for a contracted vendor to replace the agent water tank assembly and associated components on Fire Department Water Tender registration number 11L00144. Issued by the 412 Logistics Readiness Squadron, Vehicle Management Flight, the contract addresses structural damage and leaks on the vehicle's existing tank that are beyond internal repair capabilities. The selected vendor will perform all work at their own facility. Key tasks include removing and disposing of the damaged tank, painting the new assembly to manufacturer specifications, applying decals, and installing the new tank and components. The vendor must also conduct post-repair operational testing to meet or exceed NFPA standards. The contract cost must cover all parts, labor, freight, fluids, and shop supplies necessary to restore the vehicle to full operational capacity. There are no requirements for government-furnished property, security clearances, travel, or special materials. The period of performance begins immediately upon contract award and will continue until all repairs are completed.
