The Defense Logistics Agency’s Defense Supply Center Philadelphia plans to negotiate a sole source contract with Propper International Inc. to support the Marine Corps Systems Command’s Improved Load Bearing Equipment (ILBE) System. This contract will be awarded on an "Other Than Full and Open Competition" basis under the authority that allows for only one responsible source when no other supplies or services meet the agency’s needs. The contract will be an Indefinite Delivery Type Contract with a base year and two one-year option periods, covering various ILBE components such as radio pouches, shoulder straps, multiple pack types, hip belts in several sizes, hydration systems, webbing, and associated parts. Propper International holds exclusive licensing rights to a proprietary load transfer technology developed by Arc’teryx, which utilizes specialized foam construction in the waist belts, and the ILBE system is the only domestically manufactured product with this capability. The contract is subject to the Berry Amendment, ensuring all textile and clothing materials are U.S. sourced or processed. No drawings or competitive solicitations are available, but interested parties may submit statements of capability and descriptive literature within 15 days of the announcement. The solicitation will be posted on the DLA’s DIBBS online system, which requires vendor registration and a valid CCR and CAGE code to access secure documents. This process includes a super user role to manage vendor accounts and ensure compliance with military sourcing regulations. Additional support information and technical data requests can be accessed through DLA’s web portal dedicated to Clothing and Textiles. The contracting officer responsible for this requirement is Maria Del C. Aguayo, reachable via email or phone for inquiries.
