This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is M67001-10-Q-0165, and the solicitation is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-41. This acquisition is unrestricted. The associated NAICS Code for this acquisition is 332439 (size standard of 500 employees). All interested contractors may respond. The following Contract Line Item Number, with quantities, apply: CLIN 0001 35 each $_________________________Tool Cart, Armstrong Tools Model No. MCAT09000, Brand Name of Equal. Terms: FOB DestinationInspection & Acceptance: Destination The Marine Corps has a new General Mechanics Tool Kit (GMTK) being issued to Marine Mechanics who perform maintenance on vehicles (trucks, armor vehicles, construction equipment, etc) and other utilities type equipment. This new GMTK is contained in a Pelican Model 0450/Armstrong Tools Part No. 16-636 Tool Chest and weighs approximately 120 pounds. The Marine Corps has a requirement for an associated Tool Cart/Roll Cart to be utilized with this new GMTK in a garrison shop environment. The salient characteristics of the Tool Cart are as follows:.The tool cart shall be manufactured from 14 gage steel or greater. Rolled or rounded edges are required on the top and side panels. The main body of the cart shall be powered coated in a black color. All detachable components shall be zinc plated, galvanized or painted in a black color. The main body of the cart, with no attachments, shall have a maximum width of 32 inches and a maximum depth of 26 inches. The main body of the cart, with wheels attached, shall have a maximum height of 42 inches..The tool cart shall be constructed with a flat surface so that the GMTK can be placed on or sit in this location or so the surface can be used as a work platform. The top dimensions shall be at least the same dimension of the GMTK in the front & back (when in the closed configuration). The top dimensions shall be at least 3 inches beyond the sides of the GMTK in order to have space to place small parts/items. Slight indentures (in these side areas) are allowed to the surface in order to hold small parts and keep them from rolling or moving across the top surface..The top of the Tool Cart shall include the ability to mount/connect the GMTK (utilizing Pelican Model 0450/Armstrong Tools Part No. 16-636 Tool Chest features) to the top of the Tool Cart to prevent displacement of the GMTK when the cart is tilted and secured at a 20 degree angle. This includes an orientation (facing downward) in any of the front, rear, left or right directions. Note metal/plastic brackets and/or elastic straps can be used to mount/connect the GMTK to the top of the cart. Small holes in the top surface are allowed for removable brackets, as required, but the brackets must be installable/removable without additional nuts/bolts/clips or separate material. This mounting/connecting technique shall also prevent any displacement of the GMTK, on the surface of the Tool Cart, when the cart is moving at 5 MPH and comes to a sudden stop, while remaining in an upright position..The base (bottom) of the Tool Cart shall extend outward at least 3 inches in the front of the cart to give it a wider base, as compared to the top of the cart, in order to prevent tipping when the GMTK drawers are all in the open/extended position. The Tool Cart shall not tip forward when all the GMTK drawers are in the open/extended position..Four (4) 8 inch semi-pneumatic wheels (two fixed and two swivel) with a combined total 1000 pound load rating shall be included. The two swivel wheels shall include foot lever braking/locking devices to prevent the swivel wheels from rolling. The wheels shall be designed so that the user can install or move the wheels to different wheel mounting locations of his choice (i.e. left or right locations) on the bottom of the Tool Cart. Both swivel wheels must be mounted on the same side, left or right, not front or back..Two (2) slide drawers, extending almost the width and length of the Tool Cart, and opening from the front of the Tool Cart shall be provided. The top drawer shall be at least one inch in depth and the other drawer shall be a least two inches in depth. The drawers shall utilize roller bearing slides. The drawers shall be able to be locked with a single padlock and inaccessible to an individual without tools. Both drawers shall be capable of holding 70 lbs within each drawer. The top drawer, when open, shall also provide a base for the front GMTK door when opened at a slight downward angle to allow the opening of the bottom GMTK tool drawer. The front GMTK door will then be able to be used as a small work area not to exceed a downward force greater than the 70 lb capability of the top drawer. The cart shall be designed to provide the ability to add an optional third drawer, with at least a 2 inch depth, without modification..The base of the Tool Cart shall allow for the placement/storage of the GMTK in this location. It shall include a slight lip (of at least inch and not more than 1.5 inches) to keep the GMTK or other heavy items from sliding off of the base when cart is tilted and secured at a 20 degree angle. It shall include a drain hole with removable plug..The Tool Cart shall include a push handle at least 12 inches in width. This handle shall be mountable/installable at either the left or right top side of the cart. The user can decide which side it will mount to, so mounting holes shall be included on both side panels..The Tool Cart shall include a foldable shelf at least 12x12 inches. This shelf shall be mountable/installable at either the left or right upper side of the cart. The user can decide which side it will be mounted to so mounting holes shall be on both side panels. The shelf shall be able to hold up to 50 lbs. When folded in the down position the shelf shall not extend more than 2 inches from the side panel..The Tool Cart shall include all mounting/assembly hardware necessary to assemble the Tool Cart, handle, folding shelf and drawers. Any tools required for assembly shall be limited to tools included in the GMTK. The mounting holes on the side panels (for handle & shelf) shall be threaded (tapped) to accept mounting bolts..The side panels shall include small openings in the metal, in the lower half of the panels. This is to allow the use of cargo bungee cords to hold items in or on the base of the Tool Cart. A metal Data Plate shall be affixed to one side (outside) of the Tool Cart and have the following information: Nomenclature:Tool CartNSN:(Govt provided)Part Number:(Manufacturer provided)CAGE:(Manufacturers CAGE Code)Contract Number:(As issued) A commercial Technical Manual shall be provided with each Tool Cart.
