About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI · May 27, 2025

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is seeking a contractor to provide uniform items for Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) at three airports: Indianapolis, Miami, and Chicago O'Hare. The solicitation covers a comprehensive range of uniform components including shirts, pants, polo shirts, shoulder boards, nameplates, badges, and emblems for both male and female officers. Vendors must comply with the Kissell Amendment, which requires uniforms to be manufactured in the United States using domestically grown fibers or produced in Chile. Quotes are due by 12:00 PM EST on May 28, 2025, with questions accepted until May 16, 2025. The procurement will use a lowest price technically acceptable source selection process, with vendors required to demonstrate technical compliance, prior experience producing at least 15,000 uniform items in the last five years, and the capability to handle monthly production of 15,000 uniform items.

The solicitation does not have a specific small business set-aside, but requires that one-third of the uniform items' value be manufactured by small businesses. The uniform items will cover sizes ranging from XXS to 8XL, with specific design requirements including royal blue and navy colors, and a 65% polyester/35% cotton blend fabric. The contract has a one-year performance period, with first article items to be delivered within six months of award. Total quantities vary by item type, ranging from 3 to 3,528 units, covering multiple uniform styles and accessories. Delivery will be made to three TSA airport locations in Springfield, VA, with vendors responsible for individual packaging, shipping, and maintaining detailed records of shipped items. The estimated total value is not explicitly stated, but the comprehensive nature of the uniform procurement suggests a significant contract opportunity for qualified manufacturers.
