This Statement of Objectives (SOO) details a contract for the US Department of Agriculture Forest Service to purchase and install a 4000-gallon water tender unit on an existing 2021 Kenworth T880 truck chassis (VIN 1NKZX4EX8MJ460912). The project requires a fully plumbed quick-change water tank attachment compatible with the vehicle's existing Wit Log quick attach system, allowing for rapid configuration changes by a single operator in under 30 minutes.

Key performance requirements include: delivering the vehicle within 200 miles of Bend, Oregon; completing the water tender attachment within 180 days of contract award; ensuring the tank is baffled, fully plumbed, and ready for immediate service; and providing a one-year warranty covering parts, labor, and all functions. The vendor must demonstrate the unit's operation and changeout capability prior to final payment, and the attachment must have a standard fit and finish consistent with typical water tender equipment.
