PR10797442-1 Customized Tactical Polo Shirts

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR), specifically the Division of Adult Parole Operations (DAPO), is seeking a vendor to provide 1,121 customized tactical polo shirts for its Southern Region, Northern Region, and Headquarters offices. The solicitation (PR10797442-1) requires black polo shirts made of 6.6 oz 100% snag-proof polyester, with specific customization requirements including a seven-pointed star badge on the front and custom shoulder patches on both sleeves. Vendors must deliver the shirts within 45 calendar days after receiving the order, with the contract to be awarded on an "All or None" basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The original bid submission deadline of February 5, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. has been extended to February 11, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. through Addendum 1. While sample shirts are not required with initial bid submissions, the apparent low bidder must provide a sample upon notification. Pricing must remain firm fixed for the entire contract duration, with FOB Destination, Freight PrePaid terms, and no separate delivery charges to be paid by the state.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The vendor will be responsible for supplying all customized patches and embroidery work and must replace any damaged items within 10 business days at no additional cost to CDCR. Although the exact budget or award value is not specified in the available documents, the procurement involves 1,121 tactical polo shirts with custom embroidery and patches. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure that might require integration. The procurement appears to be a straightforward uniform supply contract with specific customization requirements. Vendors interested in this opportunity should carefully review the detailed specifications in the Addendum 1 package, particularly the Statement of Work and updated technical requirements, to ensure full compliance with CDCR's precise uniform specifications.
