Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE1C125D0006

The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles has awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) worth up to $11,115,825.00 to American Apparel, Inc., a small business manufacturer of military uniforms and outerwear. The contract, awarded on a single-award, small business set-aside basis, covers the production and delivery of various military clothing items such as Army Combat Uniform coats, trousers, and blouses, as well as Marine Corps utility uniforms and cold weather gear. Delivery orders issued under this IDC will be placed on a firm-fixed-price basis, with pricing established over the contract's 5-year period of performance from October 2024 to October 2029. The contract aims to provide the Defense Department with a reliable source for essential military apparel, enabling the agency to efficiently procure these items as needed to support troop readiness. American Apparel's manufacturing operations will take place at the company's facility in Selma, Alabama.

In addition to the IDC, American Apparel received a $1.47 million cooperative agreement from the Department of Defense's Office of the Secretary of Defense in December 2020 to expand its domestic production of clothing and textiles for military personnel, as part of the COVID-19 Defense Production Act Title III program. This supplemental funding will further strengthen American Apparel's ability to meet the military's uniform and equipment requirements through the IDC and other contract vehicles.
