U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Division of Refuge Law Enforcement Southwest

Law Enforcement Vehicle CLASS A Statement of Work

Vehicle location: U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service -DRLESW 201 N. Bonita Ave. Suite 141 Tucson, AZ 85745

BACKGROUND

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Division of Refuge Law Enforcement Southwest (DRLESW) replaces emergency vehicles at regular intervals. Once acquired, these vehicles need to be fitted with emergency lighting, audible warning devices, center control console, and other miscellaneous mission specific equipment.

Vehicles defined by the National Wildlife Refuge System Law Enforcement Standardization and Marking (451 FW 1) must be fully marked Class A law enforcement units, with identical internal and external equipment to ensure standardization and compliance with policy.

OBJECTIVES

The Service procures emergency response vehicles to support Federal Wildlife Officers (FWOs) in carrying out their responsibilities safely. The installation of necessary components for patrols and investigations is critical to fulfilling our mission. High-quality upfitting, performed by a vendor adhering to or public safety standards, ensures that vehicles are equipped with appropriate emergency lighting, audible warning, and a consistent visual appearance, thereby enabling safe and effective emergency response.

WARRANTY

The contractor must provide a minimum twelve (12) month warranty on all work. Major components and sub-assemblies must be warrantied through their respective manufacturers.

In the event a defect in installation workmanship is discovered following delivery of a vehicle at its destination, the contractor shall itself, or sub-contract with a company in that geographic area, to make repairs and shall assume financial responsibility for all costs related to the repair.

SCOPE OF WORK

UP- FITTING

The awarded vendor will be subject to work oversight conducted by DRLESW. Work will be performed to pre-established standards and may be conducted at the awarded vendors facilities or off-site locations if needed. If the vehicle is to be driven off-site, the vehicle will be identified as “out of service” and all firearms must be removed.

The vendor agrees to complete the up-fitting and deliver a patrol-ready vehicle within 150 days of the awarded contract or upon notification the vehicle is available for upfitting.

DRLESW will be responsible for transporting the vehicle to the awarded location if it’s within region (AZ/TX/NM/OK). Transportation is not required at delivery.

The vehicles requiring upfitting is/are identified below:

Ford F250 VIN: 1FT7W2BA3TEC63508 GOV: I586701

The installation of aftermarket equipment is to be in compliance with the manufacturer instructions for the item to be installed.

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

The vendor will ensure every vehicle is identical in that each component included in the upfitting is the same throughout all vehicles, to include the routes in which wiring is laid throughout the interior of the vehicle. Wiring must include weatherproof protective sheathing in areas which may be subject to outside elements, areas that are crimped, areas wear may cause failure of the equipment to which it is connected and potential damage to the vehicle.

The wiring standard for DRLESW vehicles must account for all butt connectors and solder points be shrink wrapped at the connection points. When installing equipment and wiring the vehicle, the vendor shall ensure that performance and workmanship will minimize risk of electrical failure, mechanical failure, and/or fire due to changes made by the vendor.

The vendor will leave a basic wiring and fuse box diagram for any installed or upgrades to the OEM fuse box, in the glove box of the completed vehicle.

Equipment installed must be able to sustain extremes in vibration, and climates, to include dusty wash-boarded gravel roads, to off-road use.

When selecting mounting location for lights or accessories on or in the vehicle, resale consideration should be factored in, with no holes drilled into the exterior of the vehicle’s body, and minimal holes drilled within the interior. During the decommissioning process, vendors are required to return the vehicle to, as close to original condition, as possible to maximize resale value. Ideally, additional lights and/or accessories are to be mounted (holes) in less conspicuous locations or on aftermarket hardware.

All original equipment removed from the vehicle is to be returned with the vehicle at time of delivery.

MARKED CLASS A EQUIPMENT & UPFITTING STANDARDS

Lightbar The awardee must provide and install a new lightbar on the vehicle(s) being quoted on this SOW. The COTR will email the vendor authorization to proceed with the agreed option.

The vendor will provide a copy of the original order acknowledgment form for the lightbar provided at time of completion. The form will outline make, model, and configuration of the lightbar.

The lightbar should have the capability of providing 360º of programmable lighting and the option of full white to front and alley.

A light color pattern selector switch will be installed to allow the officer the option of the following: four-color patterns: red/white driver side, and blue/white passenger side, with an amber traffic advisor. Forward facing white in the red/blue pattern should only be activated in position 3 on the selector switch or manually activated by scene light button on controller.

All programmable lights shall automatically drop down into a ‘low power’ mode when the headlights are activated. This “night mode” shall drop the LED brightness from 100% intensity to +/-60% brilliance.

Grill Mounted Lighting

• Headlight Flashers—to be performed by the vehicles existing headlights. If the vehicle is capable of this function, without compromising the integrity of the light housing. This function is to be performed by installing an add-on that works with the OEM wiring and hardware, enabling the headlights to flash on and off.

Rear Lighting.

• Tailgate Emergency Lightings—four (4” LED) alternating programmable lighting will be mounted in the tailgate. Lights will have a red/blue/white option to match the lightbar, and the lights should turn all white when the vehicle is operated in reverse.

• Two-gun lock buttons will be installed in the forward cab, all black in color. One mounted on the B pillars, driver side approximately two inches from the floorboard, centered. The second within the main center console, towards the rear passenger side, (can be an existing button, but must be determined before handed with COTR).

A custom modular police package wiring harness The wiring harness required will be a custom modular wiring harness & fuse panel with labeled wire, integrated built-in timer to eliminate battery drain, integrated “Super-Relay” to shut down all emergency lighting connections during vehicle servicing. It shall be constructed with weatherproof wiring.

In addition, this unit will require a single AWG battery connection with an integrated high-amp thermal circuit breaker, contain MIL-SPEC wire crimps, MIL-SPEC 300 Amp relay and is required to be built with vehicle specific housing. This “vacation mode” will provide for the ease of servicing, security of the vehicle during servicing, non-invasive to the vehicle computer and radio systems, and reduce the chance of vehicle damage in the event of an up-fitting component electrical failure.
