TSA Uniform Items
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA), a component of the Department of Homeland Security, is preparing to solicit bids for a one-time purchase of uniform items specifically for Transportation Security Officers (TSOs). The procurement will focus on acquiring short sleeve shirts and work pants with distinct adornments that meet the agency's specific requirements. The pre-solicitation notice indicates the solicitation will be issued during the week of April 21, 2025, with proposal responses due by April 23, 2025. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice, the commercial nature of the requirement suggests that vendors will need to demonstrate capability to produce specialized uniform items that meet TSA's precise specifications. The contract is categorized under the NAICS code 42435 for Clothing and Clothing Accessories Merchant Wholesalers and the PSC code 8415 for Special Purpose Clothing.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate any specific set-aside designations, meaning the opportunity appears to be open to all qualified vendors. No incumbent contractor information or specific award value is provided in the notice. The procurement is structured as a single, one-time purchase without any option periods for future ordering, which suggests a definitive and focused acquisition approach. Vendors interested in this opportunity will need to carefully review the forthcoming solicitation to understand the exact requirements for the TSO uniform items, including specific design specifications, adornment details, and potential quantity requirements. The narrow window between the pre-solicitation notice and the anticipated solicitation date underscores the need for potential bidders to be prepared to act quickly and submit responsive proposals.

The uniform items will cover sizes ranging from XXS to 8XL, with specific design requirements including royal blue and navy colors, and a 65% polyester/35% cotton blend fabric. The contract has a one-year performance period, with first article items to be delivered within six months of award.
