The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles is seeking to procure Navy Swimmers' Trunks through a pre-solicitation notice for contract SPE1C1-25-R-0079. The procurement involves an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for domestically manufactured swimming trunks, with strict requirements that all items must be made from 100% domestic products. Vendors will be evaluated using source selection criteria, with technical merit being significantly more important than price. The evaluation factors include Product Demonstration Models (PDM), Past Performance/Performance Confidence Assessment through the SPRS System, and Product Availability. Potential bidders must register on the DLA Internet Bulletin Board System (DIBBS) and be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), with all solicitation documents and amendments to be posted online at https://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/.

The contract is a total small business set-aside with a minimum quantity of 20,000 trunks and a maximum of 125,000 trunks over five 12-month tier periods. Each delivery order will have a 120-day delivery requirement with a 90-day follow-on period. The trunks must be khaki-colored, manufactured to specific technical specifications outlined in the TECH-DATA PGC00204 document, and meet rigorous quality assurance standards including statistical process control and specific inspection levels. Sizes will range from 28 to 40, with packaging requirements of five pairs per bundle and twenty pairs per shipping container. The contract includes mandatory barcode labeling with 13-digit National Stock Number (NSN) and 12-digit Universal Product Code (UPC), and must adhere to MIL-STD-147E palletization standards. Proposals are due by April 11, 2025, with the contract leveraging the Berry Amendment restrictions on foreign product acquisitions.
