Bobcat Service and Repair for Selba Delkai Boardin

The Bureau of Indian Education is seeking a contractor to perform Bobcat service and repair for a John Deere 110 Backhoe/Front-end loader located at the Seba Dalkai Boarding School in Winslow, Arizona. The specific work involves replacing a spool valve and refilling hydraulic fluid for equipment that is currently not functioning properly. Technical questions from potential offerors were due by January 6, 2025, with initial quotes originally required by January 8, 2025, though subsequent amendments extended the solicitation closing date to February 10, 2025 at 5:00 PM Eastern Time. The contractor will be responsible for furnishing all supervision, labor, equipment, tools, and materials necessary to complete the repair, with a requirement that all work include a 1-year warranty and pass safety inspection upon completion. While specific detailed evaluation criteria were not explicitly outlined, the solicitation suggests a focus on technical capability and compliance with the Statement of Work.

The contract is classified under NAICS category 811111 (General Automotive Repair) with a $9M size standard and was initially set aside exclusively for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE), though a subsequent amendment opened the solicitation to all small businesses. The period of performance is scheduled from December 1, 2024 to January 30, 2025, and the contract will be awarded as a firm-fixed price purchase order. The total project involves servicing equipment that was previously taken to Flagstaff Equipment for initial diagnostic work. The government point of contact for this solicitation is Donald Crank, the School Facility Supervisor, who can provide additional details about the procurement. While a specific award value is not definitively stated, the scope suggests a relatively focused and limited repair project for a specific piece of equipment at the boarding school.
