US Fish and Wildlife Service National Wildlife Refuge System

Division of Refuge Law Enforcement-Region 8

BACKGROUND

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), National Wildlife Refuge System Law Enforcement (NWRSLE) replaces emergency vehicles at regular intervals, approximately 4-6 per year in Region 8. Once acquired, these vehicles will need to be fitted with emergency lighting, audible warning, control console, and other miscellaneous mission specific equipment. The vehicles will be Sport Utility Vehicles (SUV) or pickup trucks, of various makes and models defined by NWRSLE, and will be outfitted as a fully marked (Class A), or un-marked (Class B) vehicle. Internally and externally installed equipment on the Class A and Class B vehicles are upfitted identically to maintain standardization and meet policy guidelines. Information: Tahoes are located at San Luis NWRC in Los Banos, CA. F-150's are located at Sacramento NWRC in Willows, CA. If your facility is located more than 100 miles away, you must provide transportation of the vehicles.

OBJECTIVES

The Service acquires emergency response vehicles to ensure the safety of our Federal Wildlife Officers (FWO’s) in the performance of their duties. The up-fitting of the components required to perform daily patrol work and investigations are of utmost importance to the mission. The ability to safely respond with adequate emergency lighting, equipment and prisoner transport is achieved through the quality up-fitting of vehicles by a vendor which meets or exceeds public safety levels.

The NWRSLE retains the right to conduct on-site inspections of the upfitted vehicles at the vendor location any time prior to delivery. No vehicle will be delivered without consent of the NWRSLE Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative (COTR), or designee.

STATEMENT OF WORK

UP- FITTING

The vehicles requiring up-fitting and delivery based on the GSA SIN are as follows:

(3) 55 – Ford F-150 size 4X4 Pickup, Full Size Crew Cab, Min 6700 lbs GVWR (caged)-Class-A (Marked)

(2) 105C –Chevy Tahoe size 4X4 SUV, 4DR, Special Service Package Vehicle (uncaged)-Class B (Unmarked)

The requirement of the vendor is the receiving, proper installation of Government identified law enforcement equipment, and delivery of government owned vehicles.

The installation is to be in compliance and consistent with equipment manufacturers’ instructions for the item to include all non-original equipment manufacturer (OEM) after-market items which are purchased in order to make the vehicle ready for Federal Wildlife Officer (FWO) work. The vendor agrees to complete the upfit and deliver the patrol-ready vehicle within 60 days from the date the vehicle arrives at the vendor’s up-fitting facility.

The vendor will install all the emergency vehicle equipment in a consistent standardized manner. The vendor

2 | P a g e will ensure that every vehicle is identical in the manner that each component included in the up-fitting is the same throughout all vehicles, to include the routes in which the wiring is laid throughout the interior of the vehicle. The wiring must include weatherproof, protective sheathing in areas which may subject the wiring to outside elements, crimping and/or wear that may cause failure to the equipment which it is connected and potentially damage to the vehicle. The standard for our vehicles includes that all connections utilize butt connectors, solder and shrink wrap at connection points. When installing equipment and wiring the vehicles, the vendor shall ensure that their performance and workmanship will minimizing risk of electrical failure, mechanical failure or fire due to changes made by the vendor.

The installed equipment must be able to sustain extremes in vibration, climate and conditions, from extreme cold, snow covered highways, to extreme hot, dusty wash-boarded gravel roads, to off-road use.

NWRSLE vehicle classification consists of Class A and Class B vehicles. Class A are standard marked patrol vehicles. This is a vehicle (truck or SUV) that is fully marked using the approved standards and equipment to promote a safe and effective working environment. Class B are unmarked patrol vehicles (truck or SUV). Both classes of vehicles are fully equipped patrol vehicles and may be either “caged or uncaged” as stated below.
