PNSY 45' Electric Articulating Boom Lift Rental

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command is seeking to procure a 45' Electric Articulating Boom Lift (JLG E450AJ model) for Portsmouth Naval Shipyard to support maintenance of cranes and shipyard facilities. The procurement is structured as a base contract with two potential option years, running from January 15, 2025, through January 14, 2028. Vendors must provide a statement certifying compliance with FAR 52.219-14 "Limitations on Subcontracting" and indicate whether they own the required equipment or would need to rent it from another entity. The equipment must meet specific technical requirements, including being battery-powered, capable of traveling one mile over uneven ground, and no older than three model years at contract start. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on December 18, 2024, with responses due by December 23, 2024.

The contract is not designated with a specific set-aside classification, making it potentially open to all qualified vendors in the commercial and industrial machinery rental sector. The equipment must be capable of accommodating two people with a 500-lb minimum platform capacity and includes specific requirements such as foam-filled tires, a swinging gate, work tray, and electric outlet in the basket. Contractors will be responsible for quarterly maintenance inspections, documentation, and rapid response to repair calls, with a requirement to respond within 4 hours and complete repairs within 24 hours or provide a replacement unit. The contract includes strict security requirements, mandating U.S. citizenship for all personnel and implementing restrictions on electronic devices with cameras in controlled industrial areas. Vendors must be prepared to handle all maintenance, repairs, hazardous material disposal, and spill containment throughout the contract period.
