are you able to disclose the previous awardee and their pricingPrevious Contractor was Polo Custom Products. Pricing cannot be disclosed.
We need the density of the foam - 2#, 3#, 4# or 6#

This would come in sheet form so we need you to pick a size. We can do 1/8" or 1/4".

It will be charcoal gray in color. This is crosslink foam which will be 48 x 96 or 48 x 72. Drawing 11-1-9007 does not have any definitive requirements for material density. As long as stiffness does not inhibit ability to affix male to female end of buckle, vendor discretion is allowed.

Likewise vendor discretion is allowed for foam thickness. As long as the material is between 1/8" and 1/4" and within the +/- (1/16)" tolerance specified in Note 2, the requirement is met.

Recommend pursing whichever option best facilitates effective manufacture of the end item within the bounds specified above.
