About this opportunity

Air Force Space Command intends to procure a battery-powered electric tugger material handling device by May 21, 2026, with no set-aside. The device must push and pull heavy wheel loads up to 100,000 pounds and be configured as a walk-behind unit rather than a stand-up or sit-down rider model. Capability statements must be submitted in PDF format; telephone responses will not be accepted.

Air Force Space Command issued a Sources Sought notice (FA252126QB082) on May 5, 2026, with an initial response deadline of May 11, 2026, for market research purposes. The agency clarified technical specifications in a Q&A document posted May 18, 2026, confirming the 100,000-pound weight capacity requirement after vendor inquiry about whether the specification was 10,000 or 100,000 pounds, and reaffirming the walk-behind configuration mandate.

The requirement falls under NAICS 333924 (Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing) with a 900-employee size standard; 45 CONS indicated interest in any size business capable of meeting the requirement. Respondents must submit company business size (annual revenues and employee count), business status (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, EDWOSB, or small business designation), DUNS number, CAGE code, SAM registration expiration date, GSA contract information if applicable, teaming arrangements, commercial sales examples, and foreign ownership status or contemplated use of foreign national employees. Suppliers must identify their manufacturer and the manufacturer's size; manufacturers must state their own status. Responses should be directed to Contracting Officer cynthia.whittaker@spaceforce.mil and Contract Specialist cierra.hallmon@spaceforce.mil.
