About this award
The U.S. Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command awarded a $2.25 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to German-based Hensel Fahrzeugbau GMBH & CO. KG to design and manufacture forest skidders equipped with wildland firefighting capabilities for Army fire departments operating in Europe. The contract, awarded on June 9, 2025, requires delivery by February 21, 2026, with performance taking place in Germany. The specialized firefighting skidders must meet rigorous international safety and performance standards including NFPA, EN, and DIN specifications, with a minimum pump capacity of 750 gallons per minute and a 5,000-liter water tank capacity. The vehicles must also accommodate 200 feet of firefighting hose and additional equipment, feature roll-up doors, tilt cabs, thermal protection systems, and possess the capability to tow fuel and power equipment while adhering to specified dimensional and weight constraints.
The contract includes comprehensive vendor support requirements, including compliance demonstrations with ISO or VDA quality standards, operator training, and a 24-month warranty with rapid on-site repair provisions. This award originated from a pre-solicitation notice posted in October 2023 by the Army Contracting Command, which sought qualified vendors capable of meeting the stringent technical and operational requirements for supporting Army firefighting operations across the European region. No set-aside designation was utilized for this procurement, allowing full and open competition among interested contractors.
