About this opportunity
The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Complex Butner seeks various fabrics to support UNICOR's inmate clothing production at the Federal Correctional Institution in Oakdale, Louisiana, with proposals due March 31, 2026 and questions due March 17. This is a 100% small business set-aside with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees.
Place of performance is Oakdale, Louisiana (1507 East Whatley Road, Oakdale, LA 71463). The procurement is structured as a five-year fixed-price IDIQ contract consisting of one base year and four option years, with an Economic Price Adjustment clause. The guaranteed minimum quantity is 50,000 yards, with an estimated total quantity not-to-exceed 8,220,000 yards over contract life. Supplies must comply with the Buy American Act and consist of 15 different fabric items in specified colors (red, wine, khaki, olive drab, sage green, white, orange, and teal green) in cotton/polyester blends with twill or poplin weaves, meeting ASTM D-3780 specifications. Fabrics must be supplied on 2.5-inch diameter corrugated tubes with 180–200 yard lengths. Initial delivery is required within 120 days of award; subsequent deliveries within 30 days of order issuance.

The contractor must establish vendor-managed inventory at its own facility and maintain consignment inventory at FCI Oakdale. Proposals must be submitted via email to renee.stancil@usdoj.gov with prices firm for 60 days from proposal closing. Evaluation emphasizes past performance and technical factors (including vendor-managed inventory capability and specification compliance) significantly more than price. Multiple awards are possible.

Offerors must submit a signed credit authorization form and complete a business management questionnaire with contract references demonstrating relevant experience within the prior three years.
