MPD Police Uniforms and Equipment

The District of Columbia Government has issued a procurement opportunity for police uniforms and equipment specifically for the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD). This contract opportunity, identified by the unique ID 66c860c9829eb5d869076d1c, seeks a contractor capable of supplying comprehensive uniform and equipment solutions for law enforcement personnel. The solicitation was originally posted on October 1, 2010, with an unusually historical due date of December 30, 1899, which appears to be an administrative error. The procurement targets the full range of police uniform apparel and related equipment necessary for MPD officers to perform their daily duties effectively. While specific technical requirements are not detailed in the provided documentation, potential vendors can expect to provide items such as duty shirts, trousers, jackets, badges, name tags, and potentially specialized protective gear. The contract appears to be focused on outfitting the entire Metropolitan Police Department with standard and potentially customized uniform components.

The contract opportunity is specifically targeted to vendors operating within the District of Columbia jurisdiction, with a corresponding FIPS Code of 11001. Though the documentation does not explicitly outline set-aside designations or specific vendor restrictions, government contracts of this nature often have provisions favoring local, small, or disadvantaged business enterprises. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the available information, nor are any specific budget ranges or award values disclosed. Potential bidders would likely need to demonstrate capabilities in large-scale uniform and equipment procurement, with proven experience in law enforcement outfitting, quality manufacturing, and reliable supply chain management. Additional qualifications might include the ability to meet government procurement standards, provide comprehensive product catalogs, manage bulk orders, and ensure consistent quality across uniform and equipment specifications. Interested vendors should carefully review the full solicitation documents to understand the complete scope of requirements and submission guidelines.
