About this IDV
Sock Factory Inc., a small business sock manufacturer based in Hickory, North Carolina, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the U.S. Air Force on January 10, 2025, with a ceiling value of $620,824.41 and performance period through October 30, 2027. The contract requires production of 350 to 500 cadet sock kits annually to outfit United States Air Force Academy cadets with uniform-compliant socks. Each kit contains multiple pairs of socks across multiple categories: summer and winter boot socks, ski socks, physical training socks, and dress socks in various sizes. The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, and all products must comply with the Buy American Act and Berry Amendment requirements. Sock Factory Inc. brings over 40 years of experience in sock manufacturing and has consistently supplied similar cadet sock kits to the Air Force Academy since fiscal year 2021 through a series of annual purchase order contracts.
Under this Indefinite Delivery Contract, the Air Force issued an initial delivery order to Sock Factory Inc. on January 14, 2025, valued at $163,941.50 with completion scheduled for April 14, 2025. This delivery order operates under firm-fixed-price terms with no set-aside designation and represents the first task order against the broader IDV. Performance takes place at Sock Factory Inc.'s facility in Hickory, North Carolina, with delivery on a Freight on Board Destination basis to the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado. The original market research solicitation posted in April 2024 specified compliance with detailed sock kit specifications and required a first article submission, establishing the technical and regulatory framework for all subsequent orders under the indefinite delivery vehicle.
