About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles has issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for Cold Weather Shipboard Jackets under the Unusual and Compelling Urgency provision (FAR 6.302-2). The procurement covers 9,600 Cold Weather Jackets (NSN: 8415-01-495-0884) in 5 sizes, with a maximum contract quantity of 93,750 units over three years and an estimated annual requirement of 25,000 units. The justification stems from production challenges experienced by the current contractor, Valley Apparel, LLC, including difficulties with subcontractors and transitioning production in-house, which has impacted their ability to meet contract requirements. Two contracts (SPE1C1-25-C-0007 and SPE1C1-25-C-0008) were awarded on August 28, 2025, to unknown vendors for undisclosed amounts, with a nine-month performance period from the award date. The agency plans to limit competition to two vendors who previously expressed interest and two established vendors who can provide the quickest delivery solution, while simultaneously working on a competitive follow-on solicitation anticipated for May 2025 with deliveries beginning in March 2026.
