The undershirts shall be manufactured in accordance with specification A-A-50013H dated September 9, 2024, Type 1 Olive Drab OD 522 with crew neck construction. Contractors are responsible for generating commercial patterns that conform to finished measurements specified in the referenced specification. Shade evaluation is mandatory acceptance testing; each lot must be submitted for Government approval before shipment. Contractors must submit shade swatches (4" x 12" for yard goods; full width and 12" length for narrow loom material) with tally sheets listing case numbers, roll numbers, and yardage per sampling tables based on lot size (ranging from each piece for 1-8 pieces to 1 of 5 pieces for lots over 160 pieces). Shade testing shall match the standard sample (Roll No. 3844) using AATCC Evaluation Procedure 9, Option A with D65 illuminant at 7500 ± 200°K. Government acceptance testing requires 45 calendar days from sample receipt; if exceeded, delivery schedules extend proportionally. Physical testing samples are forwarded upon request to the DLA Product Testing Center Analytical in Philadelphia, PA. Packaging requires three undershirts per size with cardboard insert in polyethylene bag; shipping cartons contain 96 pieces (32 packages) in fiberboard boxes (RSC-L, Type CF) with interior dimensions approximately 23-1/2" L x 15" W x 15" D. All shipments require NSN and UPC bar code labels, RFID hangtags with passive Gen2 technology, and compliance with MIL-STD-129 military marking standards and ISPM 15 wood packaging material requirements. Palletization is mandatory using 4-way winged pallets not exceeding 43" L x 52" W x 54" H with approved commercial bonding materials.

SHADE EVALUATION OF CONTRACTOR FURNISHED MATERIALS:
Government Acceptance Testing. Unless otherwise stated in the contract, testing performed at the DLA PTC for acceptance purposes will be completed in forty five (45) calendar days. The contract delivery requirements are based on the assumption that DLA Troop Support and the DLA PTC will require a total of 45 calendar days from the date of the receipt of samples at the Government laboratory to the date the completed test results are mailed to the contractor.
If this time frame is exceeded, the contract delivery schedule will be extended by the number of additional days needed to complete the testing, provided the contractor can establish that the delay in its delivery was caused by the Government exceeding the prescribed time. The foregoing provision for the extension of delivery schedules is exclusive and the Government shall not be liable to suit for breach of contract by reason of any delay of the Government in providing test results.
Shade Evaluation. Shade Evaluation is Acceptance Testing; each lot must be submitted for evaluation. Lots shall not be shipped until shade is approved by
Government. The prime contractor will require the fabric or component supplier to present to the source QAS the complete lot prepared for shipment, a set of tally sheets by shipment listing case numbers, roll numbers, and yardage of each roll and a shade swatch (header) from each roll with roll and case numbers identified on each swatch.
The following sampling procedure will be followed unless otherwise specified.
- SHADE SAMPLING IS APPLICABLE
- The color of the test specimen shall match the standard sample viewed using AATCC Evaluation Procedure 9, Option A, with sources simulating artificial daylight D65 illuminant with a color temperature of 7500 (+/- 200)°K, with illumination of 100 (+/- 20) foot candles, and shall be a good match to the standard sample under incandescent lamplight at 2856 (+/- 200)°K.

SHADE EVALUATION OF CONTRACTOR FURNISHED COMPONENTS
Contracts awarded under this solicitation shall require shade evaluation of Contractor furnished components in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) Swatches shall be cut by the Contractor from those pieces or rolls selected by the Government representative. For yard goods, the dimensions of each swatch shall be 4" x 12" while for narrow loom material each swatch shall be a full width and 12" in length. The number of pieces or rolls to be sampled shall be in accordance with the following table:

(b) The swatches shall be submitted to the Government laboratory for shade evaluation. If any swatches are rejected, the end items made from the rejected component lot shall also be rejected. In these instances, the Contractor shall without cost to the Government, cut additional shade swatches from each remaining piece or roll in the rejected sample lot which was not previously sampled and submit these swatches to the Government for shade evaluation.
(c) Swatches submitted in accordance with (a) and (b) above, shall also be evaluated for uniformity of shade when so specified in section 3 of the fabric specification and when the standard sample is referenced for uniformity of shade.
Notification. The vendor shall notify the DLA-PTC representative via email between fourteen (14) calendar days and thirty (30) days from when lots are to be presented to the QAS. This allows arrangements to be made if the lab specialist requests to witness testing at the place of performance. The DLA-PTC will reply in writing by the date of lot presentation, whether witnessing, or side-by-samples, are requested. If no reply is received by the date of presentation to the QAS, the contractor may proceed.

The test report presented to the Government shall be not older than ninety (90) calendar days. A separate report shall be provided from each test facility when a single lot of material, components, or end items is tested by more than one test facility for different characteristics.
