Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for Mexican Navy Special Operations Unit (UNOPES)

The contract seeks the procurement and delivery of personal protective equipment and detection devices for the Mexican Navy’s Special Operations Unit, targeting items such as handheld chemical analyzers and multi-gas detectors to enhance operational safety and threat identification capabilities. The initiative is led by the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs within the U.S. Department of State, reflecting a broader effort to support international law enforcement cooperation and counter-narcotics operations. The North American Industry Classification System code 562211 indicates the focus on remediation and waste management services, though the actual goods involved are specialized protective and detection equipment for high-risk environments. The forecast notice was posted with no solicitation number or set-aside designation, suggesting it is an early-stage planning document rather than an active procurement. The point of contact for inquiries is Jamillah Timmons at timmonsj@state.gov, with Tyler Sinclair serving as the Small Business Specialist, indicating potential opportunities for small businesses to participate in future solicitations. The place of performance and organizational address information is unspecified, but the equipment will be delivered to support Mexican special operations forces, aligning with U.S. foreign assistance goals in combating transnational crime. No deadline or anticipated award date is provided, making this a forward-looking indication of future procurement activity under the FY26 forecast.
