The Department of Defense, specifically the Marine Corps, is seeking to rent snowmobile machines and tow-behind sleds for operational use in Alaska. The procurement involves the rental of eight utility/trail snowmobiles and six individual-sized sleds from December 2 to December 18, 2024, with all equipment required to be within a 50-mile radius of Anchorage. This initiative underscores the Marine Corps' commitment to operational readiness and safety in extreme cold weather conditions, necessitating specific features for the snowmobiles, including heated grips, block heaters for extreme temperatures, and towing capabilities.
