About this opportunity
The General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service Assisted Acquisition Services Region 1 has issued a Special Notice of Intent to award a sole source delivery order to Forgeline Solutions for the United States Army Program Management Office for Protection and Integration (PM-PI). The notice pertains to the procurement of specific brand name uniforms and clothing items, which will be acquired through a non-competitive process under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1. Forgeline Solutions has been identified as the sole U.S. military distributor of the required uniforms, making them the only source capable of providing these unique and highly specialized supplies. The procurement will be conducted as a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) contract, utilizing FAR Part 15.404-1. The Special Notice was posted on May 7, 2025, with a response deadline of May 22, 2025.
The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform potential contractors about the government's intent to purchase female-fit prototype clothing items directly from Forgeline Solutions, including combat shirts, gridshell jackets, low loft jackets, wool bottoms, gridshell pants, low loft full side zip pants, and hybrid pants. Contractors interested in providing capability statements must submit two key pieces of information: a current Federal Supply Schedule or open market pricing catalog demonstrating their ability to supply the items, and comprehensive company details including name, point of contact, email, telephone numbers, business type and size, CAGE code, and Unique Entity ID. All potential contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be considered. While the government invites capability statements, they retain sole discretion in determining whether to pursue a competitive procurement. This notice is not a formal solicitation, and no telephone requests or solicitation packages will be honored.
