About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of State, through the American Embassy in Praia, Cape Verde, is soliciting quotations for Local Guard Force Tactical Uniforms under RFQ number PR15825477-V2. The procurement seeks complete tactical uniform ensembles including sherpa fleece-lined recon jackets, tactical belts, packable windbreakers, khaki tactical pants, blue combat shirts, and black tactical boots in various sizes for local guard personnel. The government intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract to the lowest-priced, acceptable, responsible quoter based on initial quotations without discussions, though discussions may occur with competitive range offerors if necessary. All pricing must be submitted in U.S. dollars and include labor, materials, overhead, profit, and transportation to the Embassy location in Praia. The amended deadline for quotation submission is April 15, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Praia time, with proposals submitted electronically to praiaprocurement@state.gov. Prospective quoters must complete and submit the SF-1449 form, Section I pricing, Section 5 representations and certifications, proof of SAM registration with UEI number, evidence of established business operations, a strategic plan for uniform supply, and past performance information demonstrating relevant experience.
This solicitation contains no set-aside designations and identifies no incumbent contractors. The requirement consists of 50 base line items with identical optional quantities available for purchase, covering various sizes and quantities of each uniform component. Delivery must occur within 120 days of contract award, with contractor personnel required to provide 20 working days' notice prior to delivery and comply with standard Embassy receiving procedures during business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The specific budget value is not disclosed in the solicitation documents. Performance will take place at the American Embassy Praia, located at Rua Abilio Macedo 6, C.P. 201, Praia, Cape Verde Island. Amendment No. 00001, issued on March 19, 2026, extended the offer deadline and revised the size specification for one line item, requiring offerors to acknowledge receipt of the amendment prior to the revised submission deadline.
