The Army Contracting Command at Rock Island, Illinois wants quotes for four electrical parts used in Next Generation Shop Equipment Welding (NG SEW) at the Rock Island Arsenal. It is a total small business set-aside, and the Army plans one firm-fixed-price delivery order to the lowest-priced acceptable quote.
Watch out for
- Key documents not readable. The drawings are a scanned PDF and the RFQ spreadsheet was not read, so exact specs and the quote format are unconfirmed.
- Delivery date looks out of step with the deadline. The form shows delivery on 04 Aug 2026 but the posted response deadline is in July 2027, so check the latest amendment before pricing.
Delivery Date 04 Aug 2026
- Built to government drawings, lowest price wins. Quotes must match the drawings and the lowest price wins, so margins can be thin and a wrong part is disqualifying.
conforms to the drawings and terms and conditions of the solicitation
- Contractor pays shipping to a controlled-access site. Transportation costs are on the contractor, and drivers who do not meet Rock Island Arsenal access rules are turned away.
DRIVERS WHO DO NOT MEET THE INSTALLATION ACCESS REQUIREMENTS WILL NOT BE
