About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps, through the Marine Corps Installations National Capital Region - Regional Contracting Office (MCINCR-RCO), is procuring Vanguard-manufactured JROTC insignia and uniform components, including rank insignias, rank devices, marksmanship badges, ribbon bars, and associated mounting hardware. This is a brand-name, sole-source acquisition justified under FAR 12.102(b) and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) based on the requirement for exact standardization and uniformity across the Marine Corps Junior ROTC Program. The Government will evaluate proposals on an all-or-none basis to a single firm, considering technical capability, past performance, and price as evaluation criteria. The solicitation is restricted to authorized Vanguard distributors only. The due date for quotations is April 3, 2026, with submission to Contract Specialist Edgar Clark (edgar.clark@usmc.mil) and Contracting Officer Kellie Holley (kellie.holley@usmc.mil); inquiries must be directed to these contacts or Technical POC Paulette Howard (paulette.howard@usmc.mil).
This acquisition is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside. The current incumbent contractor is Vanguard Insignias, which has demonstrated the proprietary tooling, dye lots, embroidery patterns, and quality-control processes necessary to meet Marine Corps uniform standards. The Government's market research identified alternative vendors (including Mil-Bar, LA Speedy, BHPE, and Glendale Paradestore) but determined none could meet strict uniformity requirements without unacceptable variations. The procurement covers approximately 481,250 uniform components—primarily 324,500 units of ribbons and insignia items—to support nearly 37,000 cadets across 248 schools in the continental United States and overseas. The contract award will be Firm Fixed Price with delivery required within 120 days of award, and the total estimated procurement value is listed as $0.00 pending pricing finalization. Place of performance is Quantico, VA 22134, with inspection and acceptance occurring at both the contractor's facility and the Training and Education Command headquarters at 2009 Zeitlin Road, Quantico, Virginia.
