About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Clothing and Textiles is conducting market research to identify potential suppliers for Army Combat Uniform (ACU) Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP) Patrol Caps (NSN 8415-01-630-8905). This Sources Sought Notice is issued solely for market research purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation, meaning the government is not obligated to purchase materials based on responses received. Interested contractors must demonstrate manufacturing capabilities, production capacity, Berry Compliance, and government contracting experience. The market research questionnaire requires vendors to provide detailed information on manufacturing experience, commercial item availability, production lead times, pricing flexibility, material cost stability, and willingness to accept Economic Price Adjustment mechanisms. Contractors interested in responding must contact Hien-My Nguyen or Maria Silvester at DLA Troop Support by October 31, 2025, and should monitor SAM.gov for any formal solicitation that may result from this research.
This opportunity has no set-aside designation and does not identify any current incumbents or contractor names. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in the notice. The market research document establishes baseline production requirements, including an initial delivery lead time of 120 days with subsequent orders requiring 90-day lead times. Responding contractors should be prepared to provide annual manufacturing quantity capabilities and pricing information as part of their market research response. The government will not compensate respondents for information submitted, and any future formal solicitation resulting from this market research will be posted on SAM.gov, requiring vendors to actively monitor the platform for official procurement notices.
