Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE1C125D0091

The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles program awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $142.5 million to Puerto Rico Apparel Manufacturing (Prama) Corp., a women-owned small business and HUBZone-certified firm, effective September 11, 2025, through September 10, 2030. The contract encompasses the design, manufacturing, and delivery of military uniform components for the U.S. Department of Defense, with primary focus on Improved Hot Weather Combat Uniform (IHWCU) and Army Combat Uniform (ACU) coats and trousers in Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP). All manufacturing will be conducted at Prama's facility in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, with deliveries to designated destinations including Pendergrass, Georgia and Austin, Texas under FOB Destination terms. The underlying procurement was structured as a Best Value Trade Off source selection across four separate lots with specific small business set-asides, requiring compliance with the Berry Amendment and submission of product demonstration models from proposed sewing facilities.

The originating pre-solicitation notice, posted October 2, 2024 with a February 21, 2025 proposal due date, anticipated procurement of both Type I (Unisex) and Class 2 (Permethrin Treated) uniform variants across potential quantities ranging from 50,000 to 1,250,000 units. The contract structure incorporates a five-year period of performance consisting of five consecutive 12-month price tiers, with an initial production lead time of 180 days and subsequent lead times of 150 days. A firm fixed-price delivery order issued on the same award date valued at $1.57 million covers production of IHWCU and ACU coats in OCP with an ultimate completion date of April 27, 2026, representing initial execution under the broader indefinite delivery vehicle. Prama's existing manufacturing expertise and track record as a strategic supplier for Defense Department uniform requirements, including prior significant awards exceeding $53 million for ACU trouser production, supports its selection as the sole awardee.
