(FPI/UNICOR), a wholly-owned government corporation. The IDV has a ceiling value of $11,503,300 and a period of performance through March 2023. Under this IDV, several firm fixed-price delivery orders have been issued to UNICOR for the supply of flight deck trousers, with total values ranging from $51,300 to $1,340,560. The delivery orders do not utilize any set-aside designations, reflecting UNICOR's status as a government-owned entity. The place of performance for the contracted work is Washington, D.C.

In addition to the IDV, UNICOR, as a component of the Government of the United States, holds other federal contract awards and grant sub-awards. For example, UNICOR was awarded a $2.5 million Blanket Purchase Agreement by the Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Security Administration for the supply of various airport security equipment.
