The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) seeks services to establish a Compliance Test Program for Tires to enforce federal motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS) and reduce traffic-related fatalities and injuries. The contractor will acquire, inspect, and test tires for compliance with FMVSS No. 139, No. 119, and No. 109. The program requires detailed reporting, including test data and observations, especially in case of test failures, which will prompt further investigation by NHTSA. Key elements include maintaining a fully operational test site, adhering to rigorous compliance testing schedules, and managing both Government Furnished Test Items (GFTI) and Contractor Purchased Test Items (CPTI). The contractor is expected to maintain high standards in testing procedures, equipment calibration, and storing test items after evaluation. Additionally, a rapid-response compliance testing option is available for expedited tire testing as needed. The document outlines clear timelines for testing, purchasing of test items, and reporting to ensure the integrity of testing procedures, while also prohibiting subcontracting of testing activities. Overall, this initiative emphasizes the government's commitment to vehicle safety and public health through effective compliance testing of tire standards.
