Step 2: Define Your Vehicle Requirements
Whether you’re building a law enforcement vehicle, mobile medical unit, communications trailer, or mobile outreach platform, TechOps works closely with your team to ensure precision and compliance.
​
We refine layouts, power systems, storage concepts, communications equipment, and operational workflows into a complete build plan. Our expertise spans multiple chassis platforms and vehicle categories, allowing us to tailor solutions for agencies with both modest and large budgets.
Step 3: Identify the Right Government Contract or Purchasing Path
Psychasing a specialty vehicle involves more than design, it requires an actionable path to ownership.
​
TechOps holds contracts with state, local, and federal agencies and supports procurement through cooperative purchasing programs. Our team assists with documentation, contract alignment, and vendor qualification to streamline approval with finance and legal stakeholders.
​
We provide resources and support to ease administrative burdens and keep your project moving.
Step 4: Develop Final Specifications and Pricing
Once requirements are approved, TechOps prepares a full quote package including technical specifications, scope of work, and cost breakdowns.
During this phase, we:
• Review optional features and system upgrades
• Offer cost-saving alternatives when appropriate
• Provide reference builds and layout samples
• Discuss warranty, production milestones, and payment terms
​
This ensures that your procurement decision is clear, defensible, and fully aligned with organizational goals.
Step 5: Award and Project Kickoff
When funding and approval are in place, your build officially begins.
​
You’ll be assigned a dedicated project manager and introduced to your full execution team including engineering and electrical design specialists. We review every technical detail to confirm scope and performance criteria.
​
Changes at this phase are captured through controlled change orders to ensure accountability and transparency.
Step 6: Engineering and Design Review in 3D
Our engineering team prepares a full three-dimensional model of your vehicle to validate layout, systems, and function.
During your Final Design Review, TechOps presents the complete design in a virtual environment to confirm your approval before fabrication begins.
​
This step eliminates surprises and ensures precision.
Step 7: Vehicle Production and Quality Inspections
All vehicles are constructed at our Stevensville, Maryland facility under rigorous quality standards.
Our team of skilled professionals builds your vehicle using proven techniques and premium materials. We encourage customer visits during production and provide progress photos throughout the build.
​
Quality inspections occur at multiple points to ensure lasting reliability.
Step 8: Vehicle Acceptance and On-Site Training
Each customer completes a final acceptance walkthrough verifying compliance with approved specifications.
We provide operational training covering system usage, safety, preventative maintenance, and emergency procedures. Training is available on-site or at your facility.
​
Our goal is to ensure your team deploys with confidence on day one.
