All products must be 100% manufactured in the United States and meet or exceed NIJ Standard 0101.06, DEA, and FBI 4.1 testing requirements, with mandatory FBI approval. Sizing must cover Extra Small to Extra-Large, with female-specific designs available where required. The requirements are organized into four categories: Category A includes ultra-low-visibility compression tops designed to hold concealable armor panels, featuring four-way stretch fabric, side zippers for one-person donning, antimicrobial properties, and included spare panels and carrying bags. Category B comprises enhanced tactical plate carriers for overt operations, equipped with quick-connect buckles, MOLLE webbing, integrated pouches for magazines, tourniquets, radios, handcuffs, flashlights, IFAKs, and OC spray, along with padded shoulders, ventilation, and an integrated ballistic framework that reduces back face deformation and side spall. Category C involves modular vest systems designed to integrate with the compression tops, while Category D specifies hard armor plates in multiple sizes, including 6x6 side plates, meeting Level III/IV ballistic standards.
