A key requirement is that all materials must be delivered palletized and weatherproofed inside a new or highly refurbished ISO shipping container. This container will become government property upon delivery, and its cost, including initial freight, must be included in the unit prices of the materials.

The solicitation was published on August 20, 2026. All quotes must be submitted via email to the Government Points of Contact by September 18, 2026, at 5:00 PM Eastern Time. Late submissions will not be evaluated.
The government intends to award a Firm-Fixed-Price contract to the responsible offeror whose quote is technically acceptable and offers the lowest price.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for technology and electrical supply firms that can provide wireless communications infrastructure materials, conduit, grounding equipment, and supporting electrical hardware. Vendors must be able to supply specific part numbers or approved 'or-equal' equivalents.
Firms must also be capable of coordinating nationwide delivery to 12 distinct military bases and have the logistical capability to provide materials within a purchased ISO shipping container that transfers ownership to the government.
