- This RFP was uploaded by the owner.
Delta Air Lines, Inc. ("Delta") and the Center for Transportation & the Environment ("CTE") are seeking proposals from qualified vendors to re-power diesel ground service equipment (GSE) to all-electric units. Eleven (11) FMC COMMANDER 15 CONTAINER LOADERS will be repowered by replacing the diesel engine, transmission, and cooling systems with battery packs, electric drive motors, and an electric control system. The GSE are owned and operated by Delta. These GSE will be targeted to operate from Delta's new international terminal, the Maynard H. Jackson Jr. International Terminal, also known as Terminal F. Each gate will have electric chargers installed capable of supporting the GSE outlined in this RFP. Due to the complexity of the systems, qualified firms are limited those possessing specific experience with converting FMC diesel container loaders to all-electric container loaders. Time is of the essence in the completion of the project.
