Utility Tractor Supply, Union Village Dam, East Thetford, VT

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District New England is seeking to procure one four-wheel-drive utility tractor with 60-73 horsepower and associated accessories for the Union Village Dam in East Thetford, Vermont. The solicitation requires the complete supply, delivery, and unloading of the tractor, which must include a commercial heavy-duty front loader and forks, along with a climate-controlled cab, ROPS, and various hydraulic and electrical specifications. All potential vendors must maintain an active SAM.gov registration at the time of submission, and any vendor without this registration will be automatically rejected as non-responsive. The tractor must be delivered within 180 days of contract award and come with a 24-month manufacturer warranty, plus a demonstration of operation and safety procedures within seven days of delivery. The solicitation closes on July 25, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern, with two amendments already issued addressing vendor requests for additional information.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 33120 (Construction Machinery Manufacturing) with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The contract includes a trade-in provision for an existing 2004 New Holland TN65D tractor, which will reduce the total contract price, and multiple photos of this current equipment have been provided to help vendors assess its trade-in value. The new tractor must be delivered to North Hartland Lake, Vermont, and must have an authorized service facility within 75 miles of the delivery location. While specific contract values are not disclosed in the solicitation documents, the procurement involves a single unit delivery with detailed technical specifications and warranty requirements. The work will be performed at the Union Village Dam facility in East Thetford, Vermont, as part of the Army Corps of Engineers' ongoing operations and maintenance activities.
