Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE1C121D1409

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Clothing and Textiles division awarded Hardwick Tactical Corporation, a self-certified small disadvantaged business and manufacturer of goods located in Cleveland, Tennessee, an indefinite delivery contract to provide women's coats and other clothing items to the U.S. military. The IDV, valued at up to $20 million, has an ordering period extending from 2021 through 2028. Under this contract, Hardwick has received multiple firm fixed price delivery orders to produce and deliver quantities of women's coats ranging from several hundred thousand to over 850,000 units at a time. The contract does not utilize any set-aside designations, with the work to be performed solely at Hardwick's facility in Cleveland. These awards enable DLA Troop Support to efficiently manage the global supply chain for military organizational clothing and protective gear, ensuring U.S. armed forces are outfitted with essential uniform components.

Hardwick Tactical Corporation has also received a $9.99 million Cooperative Agreement from the Department of Defense to fund domestic manufacturing initiatives supporting pandemic response efforts through 2024. This grant, along with the recurring DLA delivery orders, demonstrates the company's critical role as a prime vendor for vital defense textile products. By establishing reliable suppliers like Hardwick for key uniform items, DLA aims to expertly fulfill the U.S. military's clothing and textile requirements worldwide.
