Statement of Work Naval Special Warfare Command (NSWC) Special Mission Low Profile Clothing (SMLPC)

1. BACKGROUND

NSWC anticipates the award of one or more indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts to allow for the purchase of rugged and casual-type civilian clothing items not normally stocked as part of traditional military uniform inventories. The support will be centered around two primary locations: Joint Expeditionary Base (JEB) Little Creek, VA (hereafter referred to as JEB), and Naval Amphibious Base (NAB) Coronado, CA (hereafter referred to as NAB). Operations in diverse environments create the need for a considerable range of clothing items, please Attachments 2.a – 2.d to the solicitation. The foregoing attachments provide “brand name or equal” requirements. The brand name or equal requirements are provided for the purpose of gauging the style, material, quality, and durability sought, and do not portend any required sources of supply. The quantities reflected in the Attachments reflect the estimated cumulative total for both locations (JEB and NAB), and are subject to change based on operational needs of the deploying members.

2. OBJECTIVE

The objective of this requirement is to establish a contract vehicle or vehicles that allow(s) for the rapid purchase and receipt of rugged and casual-type clothing to support NSWC requirements.
