About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for Modification P00002 to contract SPE1C1-24-C-0016, which will procure 155 units of the 23/P Advanced Technology Anti-G Suit (23P ATAGS) from Vinyl Technology. The modification is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(l), which allows for procurement from only one responsible source when no other suppliers can meet agency requirements. Market research conducted in December 2024 confirmed Vinyl was the sole offeror and the only vendor capable of manufacturing this specialized anti-gravity suit, which is critical equipment for F-22 pilots to prevent G-force-induced loss of consciousness during high-intensity maneuvers. The original contract was awarded on August 23, 2024, and this modification aims to reduce procurement and production lead times, ultimately benefiting warfighter readiness. While the exact contract value was not disclosed, the justification emphasizes Vinyl Technology's unique capabilities in producing this specialized protective equipment for military aviation.
