About this opportunity
The Department of Health and Human Services published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice to award a firm fixed price contract to Fruit of the Loom to provide cloth face coverings for every U.S. household. The Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response required the face coverings to distribute to state, local, and tribal governments for the general public as stay-at-home orders are lifted and daily activities resume. Market research identified eight capable vendors, with Fruit of the Loom selected for a contract valued at $4,690,000 to supply the face coverings from April through August 2020. The justification cited the urgent need to obtain these supplies for the ongoing U.S. public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
