This amendment clarifies requirements for the VA Employee Uniforms contract. Size ranges have been updated: tactical pants are required in sizes S–4XL and waist sizes 30–50. Chest pockets on polos are not mandatory, and comparable colors or equivalent industrial cargo pants may be accepted. Embroidery may be done via a heat-applied embroidered patch with the approved VA logo; a mock-up must be submitted for station team approval. The VA logo and E.V.S. script must both be included, with the E.V.S. script in Aptos (Body) or similar font and double stitching.

This amendment provides answers to vendor questions for a VA uniform procurement. The requirement is a one-time purchase of 3,288 garments, with award made on an all-or-nothing basis and all items intended for delivery at once. Offerors must provide realistic delivery/lead time estimates as part of their quote, as these will be evaluated, with shorter timelines viewed favorably. While Buy American Act compliance is strongly encouraged and preference may be given to domestic products, foreign items may still be considered, though they could create award obstacles. No pre-award samples are required, but embroidery and delivery costs must be clearly priced either per item or via the designated line items.

This is a 100% small business set-aside RFQ for a firm-fixed-price contract to supply 3,388 articles of clothing across 26 line items, all requiring embroidery where specified. Delivery and acceptance are FOB destination to the Salt Lake City VA Health Care System, George E. Wahlen VA Medical Center, in Salt Lake City, UT. The Buy American Act applies, and quotes must include technical specifications, pricing, delivery lead time, a Buy American certificate, and an OEM authorized distributor letter. Award will be made on an all-or-nothing basis using comparative analysis of technical capability, price, delivery lead time, and submission of the required certificate and letter. Quotes must be submitted electronically by email to the designated VA contract specialist.
