The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Clothing and Textiles (C&T) Directorate, anticipates the award of a Fixed Price Service contract with an Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) allowed for standard freight and dedicated truck shipments, for Third Party Logistics (3PL) support.

The 3PL Contractor will not be responsible for requisitioning clothing or equipment items from the manufacturing community. Rather, DLA Troop Support will procure the replenishment quantities and advise manufacturers to ship directly to the 3PL Contractor. The apparel and equipment items to be stored will be Government owned materiel. The current program procedures are as follows: The 3PL Contractor receives shipments daily from commercial clothing and item manufacturers, U.S Government supply depots and/or other 3PLs; stocks the items; and ships directly to C&T customers as instructed. The acquisition will be conducted in accordance with FAR 6.1 full and open competition on an unrestricted basis.
