About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a Request for Information (RFI) Log documenting questions and answers for a Mobile Air Compressor procurement at Travis Air Force Base, California. The RFI process closed on August 31, 2026, with responses provided on September 1, 2026. The solicitation (FA442726Q1143) has an RFQ close date of September 2, 2026, at 4:30 PM PT.

The RFI addresses six key technical and operational clarifications. Regarding infrastructure, the end user confirmed availability of 240V shore power connection with flexibility for modifications if needed, and indicated the trailer will be stored inside a fire apparatus stall, eliminating size constraints. For equipment specifications, the end user confirmed that enclosed panels and roll-down doors provide adequate weather and UV protection without requiring a permanent awning. On auxiliary power, one 120V/15A outlet and one 12V/USB auxiliary power output were identified as sufficient, with a 12V busbar as an acceptable alternative. Notably, the end user accepted electric brakes with tandem 5,200-pound torsion axles as an acceptable alternative to the originally specified hydraulic braking system, provided the braking system is properly rated and includes appropriate breakaway capability. These clarifications establish baseline technical requirements for prospective vendors responding to the solicitation.

1Regarding the shore power connection for the mobile trailer. Is there a picture of the wall connection/plug for the shore power cable?08/31/26End UserShore power connection: We currently have a 240V shore power connection available at the station. If your unit requires a different plug or connection, our CE Electric Shop can make the necessary modifications. Please provide the voltage, amperage, phase, and plug configuration required for your unit so we can make sure we are set up correctly.09/01/26
2Regarding the Weather-resistant, UV-resistant, chemical-resistant protective cover for the operations panel and fill station. Our product is enclosed behind panels and rolldown doors that are closed when the equipment is not in use. Does this meet the customers requirement or are they looking for an awning to cover the operator panel at all times?08/31/26End UserProtective cover: The enclosed panels and roll down doors you described would meet our requirement.

4How many 120v/15A, 12 v auxiliary power outputs are needed in the trailer?08/31/26End UserAuxiliary power: One 120V/15A outlet and one 12V/USB auxiliary power output should be sufficient for our needs. A 12V busbar or equivalent auxiliary connection point would also meet the requirement.09/01/26
