Backpack

The contract solicitation for the FALCON-III Backpack, issued under solicitation number W911S226U3372, has been amended to extend the quote submission deadline by one day due to a PIEE outage and to update the set-aside code and NAICS code to 339999, reflecting a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5. The backpack features a 3D breathable mesh padded back and shoulder straps, a lockable CCW pocket compatible with large pistols, and the classic Falcon accordion design that collapses into a low profile when empty. Constructed with high-quality nylon, self-repairing YKK zippers, and a durable water-resistant exterior, it includes ergonomic foam-padded dual shoulder straps, a sternum suspension belt for even weight distribution, and multiple compartments suitable for mission essentials, hydration reservoirs, laptops, textbooks, and camping gear. The contract is managed by the Department of Defense through the W6QM Micc-Ft Drum office located in Fort Drum, New York, with Suzanne Greenway as the primary point of contact. The place of performance is designated with a zip code of 74501, and responses must be submitted by June 11, 2026, at 6:20 PM Eastern Time.
