MI-marquette BS-(7) truck toppers

The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service seeks seven aluminum truck toppers with installation for the Sea Lamprey Control Program at Marquette Biological Station, with proposals due May 27 at 5:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time. This is a Women-Owned Small Business set-aside at 100 percent.

Place of performance is Marquette, Michigan (1095 Cornerstone Drive). The procurement requires delivery by August 31, 2026. Toppers will be installed on seven 2026 vehicles: four Chevy Silverado LD Extended Cab 4x4 trucks (23" height), one Chevy Silverado LD Crew Cab 4x4 truck (23" height), one Dodge Ram 2500 Crew Cab 4x4 truck (26" height), and one Ford F250 Extended Cab 4x4 truck (26" height). All toppers must feature white aluminum welded construction at 0.035" thickness. A.R.E. is the preferred brand. Trucks 1–5 require rear doors with windows, full-length side doors, folding T-handles, front windows, security screens, rear windows, and locks keyed the same. Trucks 6 and 7 require standard steel toolboxes with shelving, clear mitered picture windows, and 8-position welded aluminum ladder racks, but no security screens. Vendors must provide separate installation quotes for both the Marquette facility and the awarded vendor's address.

Amendment 0001, posted May 15, added bed lengths of trucks. The NAICS code is 336214, Travel Trailer and Camper Manufacturing; PSC is 2510, Vehicular Cab, Body, and Frame Structural Components. Evaluation considers specifications conformance more favorably than price.
