The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Army, is soliciting proposals for the replacement and installation of a new metal vertical bandsaw at the Fountain City Service Base in Wisconsin. The existing bandsaw has been deemed a safety hazard, and the new equipment must meet specific technical criteria, including power requirements of 230 volts and 2-3 HP, along with various cutting capacities for different stock types. This procurement is crucial for maintaining operational safety and efficiency in the weld shop, and it is set aside for small businesses under the SBA guidelines. Interested contractors should submit their quotes electronically, including completed specifications and pricing, by the specified deadline, and can reach out to Theodore Hecht at the provided email or phone number for further inquiries.
