1. In various parts of the solicitation there is reference to different terminology regarding the product.

In the title it’s called – Formal Vest Carriers for Stab Resistant Vests.

In the “Instructions to Quoters” it listed as: FOGC – Formal Outer Garment Carrier.

In the jpg Picture Title it’s referenced as: Vest Cover.

What product is being requested?

A: There are many names for the same thing. An external vest carrier is being requested.

2. In the Instructions of Quoters–it states in Section 2: Technical – Point #3 the following:

FOGC shall be equal to or less than 8.5 ounces.

Please clarify – the way it reads now is that whatever product is requested (see question #1) must weigh no more than 8.5 oz.

A: That is correct.

3. Also, in the Instructions of Quoters – it states in Section 2: Technical – Point #3 the following:

The FOGC must be made of 100% Polyester fabric matches 100% Polyester shirting and pant fabric.

What shirt and pant are they currently wearing?

A: They are wearing a cotton.

4. Item 3: Is the 100% Polyester fabric a firm requirement? We would like to bring to your attention that there are several other fabric options that we believe are of greater durability, especially considering your machine washable requirement.

Please confirm whether or not suitable substitutes are acceptable/allowed to meet the requirement.

A: There is a firm requirement on the 100% Polyester.

5. Item 4: This requirement states that the shoulders and waist must be adjustable. Could you provide more specifics on the shoulder adjustment portion of this requirement?

A: Shoulder adjustment is not required. The main issue is the vest fits tight to the body as required for wear by the manufacturer.

6. What are the design specifications for the embroidery for the BOP insignia?

A: The dimensions of the BOP insignia will be 2.25 inches by 2.25 inches
