About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri is conducting market research for strut hangers, suit hangers, and garment bags for the Clothing Initial Issue Point (CIIP) to support the Army Green Service Uniform (AGSU). This sources sought notice seeks to identify potential vendors capable of providing three specific items: strut hangers with non-slip tubes (200 boxes annually), 13-gauge galvanized wire suit hangers (100 boxes annually), and clear plastic garment bags (96 boxes annually). The anticipated contract vehicle is a firm-fixed price Blanket Purchase Agreement with a five-year ordering period from August 2025 to August 2030. Interested parties must provide company information, demonstrate interest in prime contractor competition, detail relevant experience, and submit commercial availability information including pricing data. The response deadline is July 29, 2025, with all submissions directed to Contract Specialist Lily Thielen via email, and the government notes that all previously received offers failed to follow proper instructions.
This opportunity operates under NAICS code 812331 (Linen Supply) with a $40 million size standard and has no set-aside designation, making it open to all business types including small disadvantaged businesses, HUBZone firms, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, and women-owned small businesses. No incumbent contractors or potential award values are specified in the notice. The annual requirements total approximately 396 boxes across the three item categories, with strut hangers representing the largest volume requirement at 200 boxes containing 250 hangers each, suit hangers at 100 boxes with 500 hangers each, and garment bags at 96 boxes with 470 bags per roll. The government has made multiple amendments to extend deadlines and clarify requirements, indicating ongoing challenges in receiving compliant responses from interested vendors. This represents a continuing need for the Army's uniform distribution operations at Fort Leonard Wood.
