The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support is conducting market research to identify qualified sources for "Creepers, Ice Tan," a military clothing item available in four sizes (Small, Medium, Large, X-Large) under NSN 8465-01-615-2944 through 2952. This procurement falls under NAICS code 315990 (Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing) with a size standard of 600 employees and must comply with military specification CID A-A-55124, Revision C Notice 2. The Berry Amendment requirements mandate that clothing and textile items, including materials and components, must be grown, reprocessed, reused, melted, or produced in the United States, its possessions, or Puerto Rico unless specific exceptions apply. Organizations must also meet NIST SP 800-171 DoD assessment requirements in accordance with DFARS clauses 252.204-7019 and 252.204-7020. Interested parties must submit capability statements and organizational information to Gabrielle Colao and Maria Aguayo via email by July 24, 2025, with no telephone inquiries accepted.

This sources sought notice does not utilize any set-aside designations and represents a preliminary market research phase rather than a formal solicitation. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the notice, and no award values, budget ranges, or contract duration information is provided at this pre-solicitation stage. The procurement involves four different sizes of the ice creeper footwear, though specific quantities for each size are not disclosed in the market research notice. The government emphasizes that this information request is voluntary and assumes no financial responsibility for costs incurred by responding organizations, with no feedback or evaluations to be provided to submitting companies. The result of this market research will inform the government's determination of the appropriate procurement method for the actual solicitation.
