2330--Storage Trailers

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 8, is seeking offers for the procurement of five new 53-foot enclosed dry van semi-trailers for storage purposes through a Firm-Fixed-Price contract issued under FAR Part 12 commercial procedures. All trailers must be commercially manufactured, fully enclosed, weather-tight, and equipped with heavy-duty flooring suitable for palletized loads and a mandatory rear roll-up door providing full-width access. Key requirements include DOT-compliant braking and lighting systems, fully operational tandem axles with air or spring suspension, delivery within 30 calendar days of order receipt, and clear, transferable title demonstrating legal authority to sell. Evaluation will prioritize technical capability as the most important non-price factor, followed by delivery capability and price considerations. The deadline for submitting questions is April 23, 2026, at 11:00 AM EST, and offers must be received by April 28, 2026, at 4:00 PM EST.
