Class 5 Crew Cab Truck Non-Standard Vehicle

DEPT OF DEFENSE.DEPT OF THE ARMY.AMC.ACC.MISSION INSTALLATION CONTRACTING COMMAND.419TH CSB.W6QM MICC-FT DRUM · Response deadline: Wed, 28 Oct 2026

What the government is buying

The Army's Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Drum is soliciting for a Class 5 Crew Cab Truck Non-Standard Vehicle. This is a heavy-duty commercial truck acquisition falling under NAICS code 336212, which covers truck trailer manufacturing and heavy-duty truck production.

Class 5 trucks are medium-to-heavy duty vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating between 16,001 and 19,500 pounds. Crew cab configurations provide enclosed seating for additional personnel alongside the driver, making these vehicles suitable for military operations requiring transport of small teams with equipment. "Non-standard vehicle" indicates this truck does not conform to standard military tactical vehicle specifications, suggesting a commercial-off-the-shelf or commercially modified acquisition approach rather than a purpose-built military design.

Key facts

Who can bid

This opportunity is 100% set aside for small businesses registered in SAM.gov under NAICS 336212. To qualify, your business must:

• Meet the SBA size standard for NAICS 336212 (see the solicitation or SBA size standards table for current thresholds)
• Have active SAM.gov registration valid through contract award
• Be designated "small" in your SAM.gov profile for this NAICS code

Given the nature of vehicle manufacturing/modification, relevant experience might include: commercial truck assembly, upfitting, or modification; production of specialized vehicle configurations; or supply of heavy-duty trucks to government or commercial fleets. The government may evaluate technical capability, past performance, and manufacturing capacity—see the solicitation for specific evaluation criteria.

How to put together a competitive bid

For vehicle procurements under total small business set-asides, focus on these elements:

Technical compliance: Verify your proposed truck meets Class 5 GVWR specifications and crew cab configuration requirements. "Non-standard" suggests flexibility in make/model, but confirm exact requirements in the solicitation's specifications.

Production and delivery capability: Demonstrate ability to produce or source the vehicle within required delivery schedules. For military acquisitions, address any special testing, inspection, or acceptance procedures.

Pricing strategy: Total small business set-asides in this NAICS often attract experienced manufacturers and dealer networks. Research comparable commercial pricing for Class 5 crew cab configurations, then factor in any government-unique requirements (warranty terms, manual provision, packaging for military delivery).

Past performance: Prepare documentation of similar truck deliveries, especially to federal agencies. Fort Drum's upstate New York location may involve specific shipping considerations—see the solicitation for delivery terms.

Regulatory compliance: Confirm your firm can meet any Buy American Act, Berry Amendment, or DFARS specialty metal requirements that may apply to vehicle components.
