What this opportunity is
The Department of Defense is seeking to acquire 14 commercial trailers, including flatbed, curtain sider, rollerized box, and lowbed trailers, as outlined in their Request for Information (RFI). This opportunity is open to all businesses, as there is no set-aside for small businesses. Vendors should note that this is a sources sought notice, indicating that the government is gathering information rather than soliciting bids at this stage, which means tracking this opportunity is essential for potential future bidding.
