The 325th Contracting Squadron at Tyndall Air Force Base is seeking vendors capable of providing three commercial-off-the-shelf utility terrain vehicles under a total small business set-aside, with responses due by 1 PM CDT on July 17, 2026 (or alternatively July 28, 2026 for equal products). This is a sources-sought RFI for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a commitment by the Government.

Vehicles must be new, current-year production models optimized for paved roads and concrete surfaces at Tyndall AFB, Florida, delivered F.O.B. destination, fully assembled, serviced, fueled, and ready for immediate operation. Technical requirements include maximum width of 65 inches, seating for three adults in side-by-side configuration, 600-pound cargo box capacity, 1,200-pound total payload capacity, on-demand 4-wheel drive with selectable 2WD and locking rear differential, minimum 500cc gasoline or diesel engine (or 30+ horsepower electric equivalent), 4,000-pound towing capacity with standard 2-inch receiver hitch, minimum 10 inches ground clearance, and capability to achieve 45 mph.

Vehicles must carry standard OEM commercial warranty with minimum one-year coverage on powertrain and chassis. Contractors must supply two sets of operator and maintenance manuals per vehicle. Custom fabrication voiding manufacturer warranty is unacceptable. Responses should be emailed to SSgt.
