About this opportunity
The New Hampshire Army National Guard is conducting a sources sought market survey for the procurement of one 34K forklift with specific operational capabilities. This pre-solicitation notice, posted on April 14, 2026, is not a formal solicitation but rather an effort to identify qualified potential sources and assess market capabilities before issuing an official solicitation on SAM.gov. The forklift must meet detailed specifications including a minimum 34,000-pound load capacity, maximum 46,000-pound unloaded weight, independent fork movement with side shift capability, 8-foot forks, minimum 10-foot lift height, and a fully enclosed operator cab equipped with heating, air conditioning, and backup camera functionality. Interested vendors are required to submit company information, points of contact, estimated pricing for the identified CLIN, and their business size classifications by the April 28, 2026 deadline. The Government will use responses to this sources sought notice to determine the most appropriate procurement methodology for the final solicitation; however, responses submitted are voluntary and do not constitute binding proposals or create any financial obligation for the Government.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small businesses meeting the NAICS 423830 size standard of 100 employees or fewer. The notice invites vendors to provide estimated costs for the forklift and indicate their business status classifications, which may include Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB), HUBZone, Woman Owned Small Business (WOSB), 8(a), or large business designations. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, and no incumbent contractor is identified. The request encompasses a single contract line item for one 34K forklift unit, with the actual procurement timeline and award value to be determined following the Government's evaluation of market survey responses. Interested small businesses should prepare their technical and pricing information promptly to meet the April 28, 2026 response deadline.
