The Special Operations Equipment - Tailored Logistics Support (SOE TLS) multiple award IDV was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support to provide logistics support for special operations equipment requirements. Task orders awarded against the contract to W.S. Darley & Co. total over $33B and involve delivery of various tactical, communications, and mobility equipment from the contractor's facility in Itasca, Illinois to Defense Logistics Agency customers through January 2031.
The original solicitation sought proposals to provide total logistics support for special operations equipment and related supplies/services worldwide. This included survival gear, tactical equipment, diving gear, communications devices, air crew support items, and mountain climbing equipment. Evaluation was to be based on best value tradeoff procedures, with non-price factors significantly more important than price. The potential contract value was estimated at $33B over a 10-year period at $1.3B in estimated annual sales. The acquisition was set aside as a total small business and included a waiver to the non-manufacturer rule.
