Military Boots for Men & Women

The Montana National Guard Youth Challenge Program (MYCA) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) through the Montana Acquisition & Contracting System (MACS) for military boots for men and women, specifically targeting Big Horn County. The procurement seeks a vendor to supply approximately 75-135 pairs of lightweight uniform tactical boots every six months, with an estimated annual quantity between 150-270 pairs, to be delivered F.O.B. Dillon, MT. The solicitation (Bid Number DMA2020-0045) includes two product line items: a standard lightweight uniform tactical boot order and an expedited/emergency boot order, both requiring compliance with unspecified boot specifications. The bid opens on 4/10/2020 at 2:00 PM MDT and closes on 5/11/2020 at 2:00 PM MDT, with Bob Oliver from the procurement office serving as the primary contact. Bidders are required to provide detailed information including vendor contact details, federal tax ID, DUNS number, and manufacturer's descriptive literature to establish quality and compliance with specifications.

The solicitation mandates vendor disclosure under Executive Order No. 15-2018 regarding election contributions and requires bidders to select a preferred payment method (paper check, EFT, or state credit card). Payment terms are set at 0% 0, Net 30. While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations are explicitly mentioned, the procurement appears open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the boot specifications and delivery requirements. The bid does not specify an exact award value, but the consistent six-month order of 75-135 boot pairs suggests a potential annual contract value that would depend on the per-unit pricing submitted by bidders. The procurement is specifically for the Montana Youth Challenge Academy located in Dillon, MT, indicating a targeted, specific need for military-grade footwear for program participants.
