The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District, is seeking qualified suppliers for two diesel-powered mobile air compressors designated for McNary Lock and Dam through a sources-sought announcement under NAICS code 333912 (Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing). This pre-solicitation notice invites interested firms to submit capability statements demonstrating their ability to provide single-stage rotary screw air compressors meeting specific technical requirements, including 400 CFM free air delivery at 150 PSI, liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engines compliant with T4F emissions standards, and integrated components such as cold weather packages, double-walled fuel tanks with spill containment, control systems, hose reels, and sound-dampened enclosures limiting noise to 80 dB at 23 feet. Respondents must submit their intent to bid, company information with CAGE Code or UEI number, business size classification relative to the 1,000-employee small business threshold, detailed product specifications, and feedback on the technical specifications by April 6, 2026, at 11:00 AM Pacific Time to Mary Seiner at Mary.L.Seiner@usace.army.mil.

This procurement involves no set-aside designation, and no incumbent contractor or award value is identified in the announcement. The requirement specifies procurement of two identical, trailer-mounted compressor units that must be commercially available standard offerings meeting Buy American Act requirements and ASME/NEC standards. Each unit must be mounted on a heavy-duty single-axle trailer with maximum dimensions of 175 inches long by 75 inches wide by 85 inches high and a wet weight not exceeding 6,000 pounds, with integrated forklift slots for mobility.
