About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support is conducting market research for the procurement of woven nylon webbing used in manufacturing parachute equipment, tentage, clothing, and other military equipment. The agency is seeking industry input to determine the optimal acquisition strategy for NSN 8305-00-177-5069, which specifies natural-colored, twill-design nylon webbing with a maximum weight of 4.90 ounces per linear yard, minimum breaking strength of 15,000 pounds, and dimensions of 1.75 inches wide. DLA anticipates issuing a solicitation in September/October 2025 for a Firm-Fixed Price, Fixed Quantity Contract with comprehensive quality assurance and testing requirements, including ISO 17025 accreditation or equivalent testing capabilities. The evaluation approach may utilize either an unrestricted solicitation with factors of Price, Past Performance, and Small Business Participation, or a Small Business Set-Aside evaluated on Price and Past Performance. All responses to the market research survey must comply with the Berry Amendment requiring U.S.-grown, processed, or produced textiles and are due by 5 PM EST on August 29, 2025.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designation, though DLA is considering both unrestricted and small business set-aside approaches based on market research feedback. The contract will require delivery of 140,000 yards of textile webbing to Arizona Industries for the Blind in Phoenix, Arizona, structured as eight phased deliveries of 17,500 yards each over a 12-month period. The government has established an initial production lead time requirement of 150 days for the first delivery. DLA plans to award a single contract with eight deliveries, though the agency is specifically seeking industry input on whether multiple contracts would be more appropriate and what contract length would best serve their acquisition objectives. No incumbent contractor or budget range has been disclosed in the pre-solicitation materials.
