About this opportunity
The Peoria Fire Department is seeking to procure 200 red Elbeco Ufx Tactical Male Short Sleeve Polo Shirts through a state and local contract opportunity in Peoria County, Illinois. The procurement specifically requires red polo shirts with logo embroidery on the left breast, adhering to precise technical specifications for a tactical uniform garment. The shirts must be constructed from 100% polyester circular-knit fabric with specific performance features including moisture-wicking, UV protection, anti-microbial technology, and odor resistance. Sizes will range from XS to 6XL, with detailed dimensional requirements for each size, including options for tall sizes with additional length. The shirts must feature specific design elements such as a three-button placket, mic loop, pencil pocket on the left sleeve, flex vent for ventilation, and specialized collar construction. The solicitation was posted on May 16, 2024, with proposals due by May 24, 2024, providing a relatively short window of approximately eight days for potential vendors to submit their bids.
While no specific set-aside designations or vendor restrictions were explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the procurement appears to be a standard competitive bid process for a municipal fire department uniform procurement. The detailed technical specifications suggest a high level of specificity that may limit the number of potential vendors capable of meeting the exact requirements. The comprehensive product specification includes a mandatory Code of Conduct requirement, indicating potential ethical and manufacturing standard expectations for bidders. Although no specific budget range was provided, the procurement involves 200 shirts across multiple sizes, which would likely represent a moderate-value contract for a tactical uniform supplier. The requirement for UPC bar code identification, individual packaging, and adherence to strict manufacturing guidelines indicates a professional, standardized procurement process typical of government uniform acquisitions.
