This is a Standard Form 30 (SF 30) Amendment of Solicitation for a 44,000-pound capacity forklift. The amendment extends the response due date from August 13, 2026 to August 24, 2026 at 7:00 AM EST. The contracting activity is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Marietta, Georgia, with solicitation number W912JM26QA019.

The amendment adds detailed salient characteristics requiring a forklift with minimum 44,000 lbs lift capacity at a 48-inch load center, 2-stage mast with 19-foot minimum reach for 3-high ISO container stacking, 96-inch forks on a roller carriage with hydraulically operated independent sideshift and fork-positioning, puncture-resistant foam-filled or solid tires, fully enclosed steel operator cab with electronic climate control and backup camera, and joystick controls. The contractor must supply operator and preventative maintenance training. The procurement is 100 percent small business set-aside with an $8,000,000 size standard, requesting one sealed copy. The amendment clarifies that remanufactured equipment is acceptable, confirms 44,000 lbs capacity is sufficient for 20-foot ISO containers, specifies standard two-stage mast (not duplex with free lift), and confirms this is a one-time purchase with single payment upon acceptance. The amendment also includes 15 industry questions and answers addressing delivery flexibility, container specifications, engine requirements, and acquisition structure. Notably, due to lack of available small business manufacturers, the set-aside was removed and the solicitation converted to full and open competition with a Price Evaluation Preference for HUBZone Small Business Concerns.

Questions and Answers from Industry

1. Please confirm the quotation due date, exact submission time, and applicable time zone. The solicitation document states August 13th, but the solicitation on SAM.gov states September 13th. The offer due date in SAM.gov has been correct to match the date shown on the SF 1149 (13 Aug 2026 at 0700AM EST).

2. Is new equipment required, or will used, refurbished, or remanufactured equipment be acceptable if it fully meets all salient characteristics? We will accept offers for remanufactured equipment. Contract award will be made to the offeror that submits what is judged to be the best value to the Government.

3. The specification states a "minimum maximum fork height of 236 inches." Please confirm that 236 inches is the minimum required maximum fork height and that equipment with a greater maximum fork height is acceptable. See revised Salient Characteristics.

4. Please confirm that the required rated capacity is 44,000 pounds at a 48-inch load center. Is this capacity sufficient for the intended 20-foot ISO container handling requirement, including any capacity requirement at maximum lift height? YES, 44K is sufficient.

5. Please identify the intended container configuration: standard-height or high-cube;

loaded or empty; and any specific stacking configuration. Standard height.

6. The requirement specifies a two-stage duplex mast with free lift. Is free lift required because of a known overhead-clearance or doorway restriction? If so, please provide the applicable clearance and minimum free-lift requirement. If not, would a standard two-stage mast be acceptable? Standard two stage is Acceptable, See revised saliant characteristics.

7. We anticipate providing operator familiarization and certification support. Please identify any additional training, documentation, or on-site support required for acceptance.

See revised saliant characteristics.

8. Please provide the anticipated award date. Given the limited time between proposal submission and the required September 30, 2026 delivery date, please also confirm whether the delivery date is mandatory regardless of the award date. The delivery date can be adjusted based on Award date.

9. Please confirm the preferred hydraulic-control configuration: mini-levers, joysticks, or either. Joy sticks. See revised saliant characteristics.

10. What is the required maximum lifting height? See revised Salient Characteristics.

11. What fork length is required? Must be configured with 96-inch (8-foot) long forks.

12. Can the Government clarify whether it intends to purchase the forklift through a one-time outright purchase with a single payment upon acceptance, or whether it expects the contractor to provide the equipment under a lease or rental arrangement over a 12-, 24-, or 36-month period? This will be a one-time purchase with a single payment upon acceptance.

13. Is a tier 3 engine mandatory for this bid? Toyota no longer makes a tier 3, actually no one does make one. If someone is offering one in their bid, they would not be able to provide one. See revised saliant characteristics.

14. Please confirm fuel type. See revised saliant characteristics.

15. The solicitation includes FAR 52.219-33, Nonmanufacturer Rule. If the anticipated award exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold, has SBA granted an individual waiver for this procurement, or does the Government consider an existing class waiver applicable to the 44K forklift requirement under NAICS 333924? No waiver is available and further market research has not found 2 or more small businesses that can manufacture this equipment. As such, the solicitation is changed to full and open competition with Price Evaluation Preference for HUBZone Small Business Concerns.
