Prisoner Trasnport Units

The District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) is seeking a contractor to install specialized transport equipment in seven Ford E-350 Cargo Vans, specifically focusing on prisoner transportation units. This procurement opportunity was posted on June 22, 2012, with proposals due by July 9, 2012, indicating a relatively short solicitation period. The primary objective is to outfit these cargo vans with specific transport equipment designed to enhance the department's prisoner transportation capabilities. While detailed technical specifications are not provided, the contract appears to require precise installation of transport-specific modifications to standard cargo van platforms. The procurement involves a targeted, specialized equipment installation project that demands technical expertise in vehicle modification and law enforcement transportation standards.

Based on the available information, no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation are explicitly stated in the contract opportunity details. The procurement does not indicate preferences for disadvantaged business enterprises or other specialized vendor categories. Similarly, no incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The contract does not specify a total award value or precise budget range for the equipment installation project. The scope is limited to seven van modifications, suggesting a relatively focused and potentially moderate-value contract. Interested vendors would need to demonstrate technical capabilities in vehicle modification, specifically related to law enforcement prisoner transport vehicle configurations, and the ability to complete the installation within the specified timeframe between the posting and due dates.
