About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles is conducting a market research survey for Extreme Cold Weather Insulated Boots designed for military personnel. The pre-solicitation notice seeks to gather information from potential vendors about their manufacturing capabilities, pricing, and capacity to produce boots meeting stringent military specifications. The boots must protect soldiers in temperatures as low as -60 degrees Fahrenheit and are primarily intended for the Army and Marine Corps. Interested vendors must submit detailed responses by 5:00 PM EST on March 27, 2025, which will be used to develop an acquisition strategy for an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Firm Fixed Price contract. The market research will evaluate vendors' ability to meet complex technical requirements, including water resistance, slip resistance, mildew resistance, and specific thermal insulation standards.
The pre-solicitation does not indicate any specific set-aside designations, meaning the opportunity is open to all qualified manufacturers. The contract covers a 36-month ordering period with three 12-month tier periods, with a guaranteed minimum quantity of 4,000 pairs and a maximum potential quantity of 56,700 pairs. Annual estimated procurement is approximately 16,000 pairs, with a production lead time of 210 days for the first delivery and 120 days for subsequent orders. Delivery will be to the Pendergrass Distribution Center in Georgia, and vendors must be prepared to provide comprehensive documentation including bar-coded packaging, National Stock Numbers, and compliance with military packaging standards. The boots must be available in sizes 3-14 and multiple width options, with pricing subject to potential annual adjustments based on the Producer Price Index, with a maximum increase ceiling of 10%.
