Service And Trade Eqpt

PSC Category 35-P encompasses Service and Trade Equipment, focusing primarily on commercial and industrial machinery for various operational needs. This category includes a wide range of specialized equipment such as laundry machines, industrial washers and dryers, drying tumblers, and related industrial textile processing machinery. The equipment is typically used by military, government, and institutional facilities to support essential operational functions like clothing maintenance, facility management, and logistical support.

The federal contract awards under this PSC category are predominantly made by defense-related agencies, particularly the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and various military branches. Typical contract values range from modest procurement of 1-50 units, with delivery timelines extending from 20 days to 400 days after order. Most solicitations are either unrestricted or set aside for small businesses, with a strong emphasis on commercial and service industry machinery manufacturing. Frequent places of performance include military bases, naval facilities, distribution centers, and other government installations across the United States, with some international delivery locations like naval ships and overseas bases.

Recent federal contract opportunities demonstrate a consistent demand for industrial laundry and textile processing equipment. The opportunities predominantly originate from the Defense Logistics Agency, Department of Navy, and other military branches, seeking equipment such as washer-extractors, household washer-dryers, drying tumblers, and industrial washing machines. Typical solicitations request quantities ranging from 1 to 97 units, with specific technical requirements often mandating approved manufacturer sources. Delivery locations include military installations in California, Hawaii, Texas, and aboard naval vessels, indicating a widespread need for standardized industrial equipment across different military and government operational contexts.
