About this file
This is a Brand Name or Equal Worksheet (Salient Characteristics) that establishes the technical specifications and performance requirements for a mobile robot stretch wrap machine procurement by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 21. The Government seeks two units of a mobile, self-propelled semi-automatic stretch wrap machine comparable to the Global Industrial Mobile Robot Stretch Wrap Machine (item 412684) or an equal product. The machine must travel autonomously around stationary pallets without requiring a turntable, accommodate 20-inch-wide stretch film with up to 10-inch roll diameter on a 3-inch core, and provide a maximum wrap height of at least 84 inches. The equipment must be battery-powered with a minimum 8-hour runtime or capability to wrap approximately 250 pallets per charge, operate on standard 110/120V, 60 Hz power, and include a charger. Additional essential characteristics include programmable wrap settings with adjustable film tension and pre-stretch control up to approximately 300 percent stretch ratio, a color touchscreen control panel, front safety bumper with emergency stop, and the ability to wrap oversized, unstable, and non-standard loads in approximately 70 seconds per typical 40x40x83-inch pallet.
The machine must feature durable steel industrial construction with approximate dimensions not exceeding 69 inches length by 46 inches width by 88 inches height, ETL/cETL electrical safety certification, and a minimum one-year commercial warranty. The procurement is posted as a pre-solicitation sources sought notice under NAICS code 333993 (Packaging Machinery Manufacturing) with the small business size standard of 600 employees or fewer. Deliverables include the equipment with operator manual, standard setup and assembly, and basic operator training if commercially offered. The worksheet certifies that salient characteristics are essential to Government requirements and will not restrict acquisition to a single manufacturer, as equivalent mobile semi-automatic pallet stretch wrappers meeting the stated specifications are anticipated to be available in the marketplace.

Brand Name or Equal Worksheet (“Salient Characteristics”) v 2.0
Brand Name Item: Brand name or equal. Quoted item is Global Industrial Mobile Robot Stretch Wrap Machine, 20 in. W Roll, 84 in. Wrap Height, item/catalog number 412684.
1. Essential/significant physical, functional, or performance characteristics.
The required item is a mobile/self-propelled semi-automatic stretch wrap machine for palletized warehouse loads. Essential characteristics: machine travels around pallet/load and does not require a turntable; uses stretch film for pallet load stabilization and is not a heat-shrink system; accepts machine stretch film up to 20 in. wide, 3 in. core, and up to 10 in. roll diameter; maximum wrap height at least 84 in.; battery-powered mobile operation with batteries included and minimum 8-hour runtime or approximately 250 pallets per charge; charger compatible with 110/120V, 60 Hz power; programmable wrap settings and adjustable film tension/pre-stretch control with capability up to approximately 300 percent stretch ratio or equal film-saving performance; color touchscreen or equivalent control panel; front safety bumper/collision stop and emergency stop or equivalent safety features; durable steel or equivalent industrial construction; approximate dimensions not materially larger than 69 in. L x 46 in. W x 88 in. H unless accepted by the Government; ability to wrap oversized, unstable, and non-standard pallet loads without transferring the pallet to a turntable; capable of wrapping a typical 40 in. x 40 in. x 83 in. pallet in approximately 70 seconds or equivalent production performance; ETL/cETL or equivalent electrical/safety certification; minimum one-year commercial warranty; operator manual, delivery, standard setup/assembly required for operation, and basic operator orientation/training if commercially offered.
2. Complete generic identification Mobile/self-propelled semi-automatic stretch wrap machine for securing palletized warehouse loads using stretch film. The machine must travel around the pallet/load and provide programmable stretch-wrapping cycles for standard, oversized, unstable, and non-standard palletized loads.
3. Applicable model/make/catalog number - Global Industrial Mobile Robot Stretch Wrap Machine, 20 in. W Roll, 84 in. Wrap Height, item/catalog number 412684, or equal.
4. Manufacturer name Global Industrial, or equal manufacturer/brand meeting the listed salient characteristics.
Per VAAR 811.104 and 811.105, I certify the following regarding the above information:
· The salient characteristics listed above are essential to the Government requirements.
· To my knowledge, the restrictions listed above will not limit the acquisition to an item peculiar to one manufacturer because equivalent mobile/semi-automatic pallet stretch wrappers may meet the stated physical, functional, and performance requirements.
Name, Date: Une, Tyler J.P. 6/9/2026 Technical notes: Use stretch wrap terminology in acquisition documents. If the facility requires starter stretch film rolls, film cutter, inside delivery, setup, training, or removal of packaging, add those as explicit solicitation requirements or separate line items. Verify warehouse aisle/door clearance, charging location, and power availability before award.
