The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground is issuing this pre-solicitation notice to announce the intent to issue a solicitation for the SPS TEP BCS. The Government intends to procure this requirement on a restricted procurement partial set-aside with 33% awarded to Small Business using the procedures at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 15. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code for this requirement is 315990 Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing with a size standard of 500 employees. The PEO Soldier PM SPE proposed acquisition will provide BCS as part of the overall SPS TEP system. The BCS is intended to function as an armored Army Combat Shirt (ACS). The non-ballistic materials used in the torso and sleeves are equal to the ACS in weight and functional characteristics, including flame resistance and moisture wicking. The deltoid and upper thoracic portions of the BCS contain soft armor that provides protection from fragmenting munitions as well as handgun threats. The deltoid portion of the BCS utilizes three (3) separate ballistic inserts that are layered to form an articulating shoulder that does not impede the normal upward motion of the arm at the shoulder joint. To meet this immediate requirement, the Government intends to award up to three (3) firm fixed price, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts via a competitive acquisition on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis with one (1) award being set-aside for small business. Delivery orders will be competed in accordance with the fair opportunity procedures at Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) 16.505.
