About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles is conducting market research for Trigger Finger Mitten Liners (NSN 8415-01-697-9014), a critical extreme cold weather clothing item for military personnel. The agency seeks to understand industry manufacturing capabilities for a planned 3-year Firm-Fixed Price Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. Manufacturers must comply with Berry Amendment domestic sourcing requirements and demonstrate capabilities in producing high-performance cold weather gear. Evaluation criteria will focus on business size (NAICS 315990), manufacturing capacity, commercial item status, material costs, subcontracting plans, and delivery capabilities to multiple distribution centers in Pendergrass GA, Austin TX, and Lansing MI. The market research survey response deadline is February 11, 2025, at 3:00 PM ET, with submissions to be sent to John Crandley at DLA Troop Support Philadelphia.
The contract has no specific set-aside designation and is open to all qualifying manufacturers. The estimated annual quantity is 189,420 pairs, with a total contract quantity of 568,260 pairs and a maximum potential contract quantity of 710,325 pairs. The minimum guaranteed quantity is 47,355 pairs, with an initial production lead time estimated at 300 days and subsequent lead times of 220 days. Manufacturers must meet detailed military specification MIL-DTL-32708, which requires specific materials like 70 denier nylon ripstop, goatskin leather, and wool linings, and must produce liners in four sizes (Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large). The contract includes provisions for economic price adjustments based on material costs, and the liners must meet stringent performance requirements including thermal insulation, water resistance, and specific color matching (Coyote 498 shade).
