BLM Southern Nevada Fire and Aviation Trailer Inspections Statement of Work – Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA)

1. Purpose and Need BLM policy requires that all trailers undergo an annual Department of Transportation (D.O.T) inspection conducted by a qualified D.O.T inspector. The Southern Nevada District BLM must ensure its fire division's fleet of trailers is inspected to remain compliant. Due to the number of trailers, inspections will be conducted at the Red Rock BLM Fire Station. Trailers include light to moderate duty types: single axle box, dual axle box, dual axle car hauler, and gooseneck dual axle trailers.

The selected vendor must document specific information for each trailer during inspection to support inventory accuracy and future contract pricing. The BLM will provide an information sheet (paper or digital via Microsoft Forms) for this purpose. Required data includes:

• Axle manufacturer, model, and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) for each trailer.

• Bearing type, bearing part number, and bearing seal part number for each axle hub inspected and repacked with grease.

The BLM Nevada State Office intends to award a single Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA). The BPA shall not exceed five (5) years. BPA’s will be reviewed at least once a year to determine whether:

(i) The BPA still represents the best value to the government (in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations), and

(ii) Price schedules are still considered fair and reasonable based on current market prices for the subject areas. Current price schedules are to be submitted for each year that the BPA is in place.
