About this file

The Salient Characteristics Document details a specific mattress requirement for the Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) Parris Island, seeking 350 navy blue nylon mattresses with precise specifications. The mattress must be 36" wide, 77-80" in length, and 8" thick, with a complex construction including 5 layers of quilting, a 312 innerspring coil unit with 13 gauge Bonnell type coils, 4 corner pads, multiple insulator and padding layers, and a polyurethane-coated blue nylon waterproof ticking.

The mattress is required to meet extensive performance standards, including being crack-resistant, stain-resistant, antimicrobial, bedbug-resistant, fluid-proof, non-allergenic, odor-free, flame retardant, and anti-static. The construction requires lock-stitched seams with Kevlar thread and inverted seams to prevent body fluid absorption. This is a sources sought notice for small businesses under NAICS code 337910, requesting potential vendors to provide their capabilities, GSA contract information, cage code, DUNS number, and SAM registration to support a future procurement for the United States Marine Corps.
