About this opportunity
The Air Force Air Combat Command seeks procurement of TLS Air Force Pararescue Suits and supporting components for maritime operations at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, with quotes due August 25 at 1:00 PM Pacific Standard Time and questions due August 24 at 8:00 AM. This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside procurement under NAICS 315990 (Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing), PSC 8415 (Clothing, Special Purpose), with a 600-employee size standard.
Amendment 1, effective August 20, 2026, reopened the solicitation and revised quantities downward. Current requirement consists of 60 units each of three CLINs: TLS Air Force Pararescue suit with Rock Boots (Part #182040), PPS300 Jumpsuit Black (Part #208154), and PPS300 Socks Kit Black (Part #303144), all designated Brand Name or Equal. The determination authorizing Brand Name procurement justifies the TLS suit as essential to government requirements based on its self-donning front-entry configuration, patented telescoping torso, integrated reinforced zipper, reinforced shoulder and knee protection, waterproof socks compatible with tactical boots, and trilaminate construction. Market research found no alternative products fully satisfying compatibility requirements with existing equipment and operational functionality.
Evaluation uses Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). Technical acceptability is defined as quoter capability to meet defined product characteristics. The Government reserves the right to make multiple or no awards and intends to award a firm-fixed price contract. Quotes must not exceed four pages and must include company name, address, CAGE Code, Small Business Type designation, and all part numbers and quantities. Payment is processed via Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) at https://wawf.eb.mil/. Buy American and Balance of Payments requirements apply. Site access requires REAL ID-compliant credentials.
