2.2.1 Attachment 1 - Specifications.pdf

This document is a technical specification for a U.S. Secret Service (USSS) armband design. The armband is 17¾ inches in length and 4 inches in width, featuring the text "POLICE" in 1-inch lettering and "SECRET SERVICE" in ½-inch lettering (or as adjusted by the vendor to fit the available space). The design includes Velcro cuffs on each side, each measuring 4 inches in length, with hook-type Velcro positioned on top and loop-type Velcro positioned underneath to enable secure fastening around the arm. The USSS will provide the official emblems for placement on the armband.

The specification mandates infrared (IR) enhancement on reflective stripes positioned at the top and bottom of the cuff, each measuring 1 inch in width. A critical design requirement is that the word "POLICE" must never be obscured by the Velcro cuff overlap. IR enhancement must also be applied to the text "POLICE," "SECRET SERVICE," and the USSS emblem to ensure visibility in infrared applications. Bidders are required to submit a digital rendering with their proposal. The document notes that the provided diagram is not to scale.
