About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence is issuing a pre-solicitation for the Health Comfort Pack (HCP), which is designed to provide forward area troops with everyday non-food necessities when the exchange system or local stores are unavailable. The HCP comes in three types: Type I for both male and female troops, Type II for female-specific items, and Type III as a personal hygiene body wipe. The contract is intended to supply 10 persons per pack type for 30 days, with varying weights and cube dimensions for each type. Changes to the component list may be made in future procurements based on field surveys, but the basic list of items generally remains the same.

This procurement is set aside for small businesses. The pre-solicitation does not mention any incumbent contractors or potential award values. The key numerical details include the three HCP types, each with specified weights, cube dimensions, and target quantities per pack. The pre-solicitation is posted on August 20, 2024, with a response due date of September 10, 2024.
