Public Safety Uniforms

The City of Memphis Sourcing and Procurement Department issued Request for Information RFI 386776 on October 12, 2026, to gather market research for a comprehensive uniform management program serving the Fire and Police Divisions. This action is for information-gathering purposes only and is not a formal solicitation for bids or proposals; therefore, no contract award will be made based on the responses. The city is seeking a provider capable of supplying uniforms and accessories supported by a secure, HTTPS web-based fulfillment system to track employee allowances, eligibility, and inventory. Key capabilities the city is exploring include the operation of an onsite uniform store within Memphis city limits, established within 90 days of a future contract execution, to provide fitting samples and staff. Desired services include onsite apparel alterations, repairs, embroidery, screen printing, and heat pressing. The city is targeting aggressive delivery timelines, with a goal of 94 percent of products delivered in less than 96 hours. Interested respondents must submit one original, eight copies, and one thumb drive by November 18, 2026, at 12:00pm CST to Chequita Crim. Submissions should include a cover letter, executive summary, qualifications, relevant experience, and responses to the requested information.
