Bearcat Ford Parts

The United States Marine Corps is soliciting quotes for genuine Ford Motor Company Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts required for the maintenance and repair of BearCat Armored Security Vehicles at Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany, Georgia under solicitation number M67004-26-Q-0027. The procurement encompasses three major component kits: a Cab Components Kit (12 line items, approximately 26 parts), an Engine Components Kit (approximately 70 line items with over 200 individual components), and a Suspension Components Kit (approximately 65 line items with over 180 individual components). This is a combined synopsis and solicitation for commercial items under Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 12, and the announcement constitutes the only solicitation—no separate written solicitation will be issued. Quotes must be submitted via email to mirthaly.quintanilla@usmc.mil by the deadline posted on SAM.gov, with all questions required to be submitted within 24 hours of RFQ issuance. Evaluation will be based on three factors with no specific order of precedence: Technical Capability (quotes meeting all specifications will be deemed technically capable), Price Reasonableness (including total quoted price with shipping costs), and SPRS Evaluation per DFARS 204.7603. The Government reserves the right to award based solely on initial quotes received, and quotes are valid for 90 days.

This acquisition is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 336310 (Motor Vehicle Gasoline Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,050 employees. The brand name justification documents that only genuine Ford OEM parts are reasonably available due to the BearCat vehicle's custom design on a modified Ford F-550 chassis with proprietary Ford drivetrain, electrical systems, and engine specifications; substitution with non-OEM parts could compromise the vehicle's center of gravity, weight distribution, NIJ Level IV armor performance, and operator safety, while also voiding Ford and Lenco warranties. All offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and must provide their Unique Entity ID, CAGE Code, and Federal Tax ID Number. Delivery is expected on the specified date with no partial deliveries accepted, and FOB Destination pricing is preferred with offerors required to clearly identify prepaid shipping costs or submit zero shipping cost in their quotes. The work will be performed in Albany, GA 31704.
