Specialized Drivetrain Repair Services

The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is seeking specialized drivetrain repair services for their Border Patrol fleet through solicitation 70B03C25Q00000349. The scope involves repairing and replacing major automobile driveline components for approximately 10 vehicles annually, with contractors required to return vehicles to operational status within 15 days of receiving call orders. Qualified vendors must be located within 100 miles of the government facility and demonstrate capability to handle both foreign and domestic law enforcement vehicles, excluding hybrid and electric models. The evaluation will prioritize technical capability and past performance over price, with quoters required to submit a technical response limited to 15 pages and include at least one project profile of similar work performed within the past three years. Quotation submissions are due by July 11, 2025, and must include completed SF-18 forms, price quote templates, and past performance questionnaires.

This opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside with no incumbent contractor currently performing these services, as this represents a brand new contract requirement for CBP. The contract structure is a firm-fixed price Blanket Purchase Agreement with individual task orders limited to $25,000 each, covering a five-year performance period from award through July 31, 2030. The estimated annual requirement of ten vehicle repairs will be serviced at the Swanton, Vermont facility located at 155 Grand Avenue. Contractors must use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts when most economical and maintain secure repair environments that keep law enforcement vehicles out of public view during non-business hours. The government will conduct facility reviews to assess proposed repair locations and requires written certifications of completed repairs along with full warranty provisions for all work performed.
