This indefinite delivery contract, awarded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (DHS CBP), provides for the delivery of National Institute of Justice certified Level IIIA ballistic body armor and related carrier systems to DHS, the Department of Justice, and other federal agencies over a 7-year period. The master IDIQ contract has a ceiling value of $128 million and was awarded to Aspetto Inc., a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) manufacturer of tactical equipment and protective gear.
Under this contract, Aspetto has received multiple firm-fixed price delivery orders to provide body armor, soft body armor, and riot protection equipment to support law enforcement and correctional operations nationwide. Task order locations span jurisdictions including Georgia, Virginia, New Jersey, West Virginia, and Washington, D.C. The contracted products, valued at over $100 million to date, will help equip personnel at agencies such as the IRS, DOJ, TSA, and the SBA Office of the Inspector General. This IDIQ contract vehicle was established through a pre-solicitation market research process by CBP to identify capable body armor suppliers able to meet their requirements.
