Purchase Order 70B03C22P00000414

U.S. Customs and Border Protection awarded a $13,125 firm fixed-price purchase order to APC Equipment & Manufacturing Inc. for an enclosed cargo trailer. The contract, issued on August 30, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of December 28, 2022, was set aside for total small business and designated the Place of Performance as Tucson, Arizona. APC Equipment & Manufacturing Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Tucson, specializes in the design and manufacturing of industrial trailers and associated equipment for federal agencies. The company has an established track record supplying trailers to CBP and other federal entities including the DEA, U.S. Forest Service, Coast Guard, and military branches for applications ranging from border security operations to evidence storage and logistics support.

This purchase order represents a typical capital procurement through APC Equipment & Manufacturing's existing relationship with CBP, leveraging the company's Multiple Award Schedule contract with the General Services Administration. The enclosed cargo trailer will support CBP's operational requirements, likely related to border security and inspection operations. As a small business set-aside procurement, the award directly supports the federal government's commitment to contracting opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses while acquiring necessary equipment for border protection operations.
