Supply of Antimicrobial Gel (Commercial Off-the-Shelf Item)

The contract seeks the procurement and delivery of eight tubes of antimicrobial gel containing ionic silver, packaged in sets of six tubes per set, designed for broad-spectrum antimicrobial action. This is a commercial off-the-shelf product that must meet strict regulatory requirements including compliance with FDA standards for medical products, DLA guidelines for defense supply chain logistics, and hazardous material handling protocols due to the nature of the active ingredient. The product will be delivered to a military postal address in FPO with ZIP code 09566-4008, indicating the intended recipient is a U.S. Department of Defense entity operating in a remote or deployed location. The sourcing is classified under NAICS code 325412, which corresponds to the manufacturing of pharmaceutical and medicine preparation, reinforcing the product’s medical classification and quality expectations. The solicitation was posted on July 12, 2026, with a firm response deadline of July 20, 2026, allowing only a brief window for interested vendors to submit proposals. It is structured as a subcontract under the Medical Supply Chain MD Surg FSF, which operates within the Department of Defense procurement framework. The urgency and specificity of the requirement suggest an immediate operational or clinical need, likely tied to infection control in field medical settings. Failure to comply with any of the listed regulatory or packaging standards could result in rejection of the bid, and all deliveries must adhere precisely to the stated configuration: eight tubes total, grouped in sets of six, implying either one full set and two additional tubes or another specified grouping arrangement.
