The following have been modified:

RESPONSE TO VENDOR QUESTIONS

1. Who will be responsible for providing the water-soluble bags the government or the vendor?

That is correct. We require Standard Automotive Industry Uniform made from 65% polyester / 35% cotton blend.

3. The office employee shirts: you are requiring 3 buttons, which implies polo shirt. Almost all polos are special breathable 100% polyester, and this is preferred by nearly all our customers. The reason is that this material is more comfortable and stays more professional during the day. The blend will be special order, therefore more expensive.

Yes, 100% Polyester Polo shirt is acceptable. The PWS has been updated to remove the blend % for this item.
