Flyers Trousers

The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for four National Stock Numbers (NSNs) of Flyers Trousers under part group code 03776. This pre-solicitation notice is seeking interested contractors to submit complete technical data packages for review by the Engineering Support Activity, as drawings are not currently available. The Government has emphasized that this inquiry is for market research purposes only and does not constitute a Request for Proposal, Request for Quote, or Invitation for Bid. Interested contractors should contact Ryan Hutton at Ryan.Hutton@dla.mil for additional information. The response deadline is April 17, 2026, providing potential offerors approximately one week to express interest and prepare submissions. It is important to note that the Government incurs no obligation to purchase materials based on this notice, and no compensation will be provided for information submitted by respondents.

This pre-solicitation notice contains no set-aside designations and does not identify any incumbent contractors or current suppliers. No specific award values, budget ranges, or quantity requirements are disclosed in this market research notice. The Government intends to develop a solicitation for a Simplified Indefinite Delivery Contract following this market research phase, though no timeline for formal solicitation release has been announced. The absence of available drawings and the requirement for contractors to provide their own technical data packages indicates that the Government is in the early stages of supplier identification and product specification development. Potential offerors should recognize that participation in this market research phase does not guarantee consideration for the subsequent formal solicitation.
