Shoe, Athletic, Men’s & Women’s (3 Types)
This is a procurement for men's and women's athletic shoes in three types (Cushion/Neutral, Stability, and Motion Control) across two unrestricted lots, with Lot 0001 representing 60% and Lot 0002 representing 40% of the total requirement over a 36-month ordering period. A mandatory pre-award certification process requires submitting specific shoe samples and test reports to the Army Program Office in Natick, MA. The contract is firm fixed price, with delivery to three specified distribution centers in Austin, TX; Pendergrass, GA; and Lansing, MI. The initial production lead time is 240 days for the first delivery and 210 days for subsequent orders. The evaluation will use a best-value trade-off process where non-price factors combined are significantly more important than price.
