F550 Retrofitting

The United States Secret Service, under the Department of Homeland Security, is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) to identify qualified vendors capable of retrofitting a 2019 Ford F-550 Super Duty 4x4 vehicle into a Mobile Command Vehicle. The retrofit scope includes significant upgrades to both exterior and interior capabilities, such as leveling jacks, a telescopic mast with integrated camera system, enhanced HVAC systems, emergency lighting, and a reconfigured interior communication space featuring three workstations, computer network infrastructure, and radio communication capabilities. Key technical specifications include black exterior paint, a 24-inch electric entry step, exterior HD TV with weatherproof door, fixed wall-mounted interior TV, emergency egress window, and comprehensive network connectivity. This RFI represents a pure market research effort with no contract award contemplated at this stage; responses will be evaluated to determine whether the requirement should be set-aside for small businesses or procured through full and open competition. The response deadline is December 30, 2025, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time, with submissions limited to 15 PDF pages and submitted electronically to designated email addresses.

No set-aside designation has been applied to this pre-solicitation notice at this time, though the government has indicated that all Small Business Set-Aside categories will be considered for the subsequent procurement action based on RFI responses. No incumbent contractor or current vendor information has been identified in the available documentation. The RFI does not disclose anticipated contract value or budget range for this effort. The requirement involves retrofitting a single F-550 vehicle, and no specific timeline for completion or delivery has been specified in the pre-solicitation materials. Interested parties are advised that telephone inquiries will not be accepted or acknowledged, and no feedback or evaluations regarding submissions will be provided to responding companies.
