The Schedule of Items identifies two primary line items: four units of 53-foot dry van trailers with roll-up rear doors, and a cost-per-mile rate structure for trailer movement once delivered and accepted.

Quotes must be submitted to Marian Feist at marian.feist@usda.gov no later than 2:00 p.m. ET/EST on February 9, 2026. Offerors are required to include the signed Form 1449 with their quotes and maintain an active SAM.gov certification. The file provided appears to be primarily instructional guidance on how to complete an IGE, noting that the estimate should reflect the same level of detail as contractor pricing submissions and should document all underlying assumptions and rationale. The IGE will be used by the Contracting Officer to establish procurement thresholds and later to evaluate offeror pricing reasonableness and understanding of government requirements.
