Uniform, Badge, and Equipment Supply for Security Personnel

The contract is for the supply of standardized uniforms, ID badges, flashlights, radios, and non-lethal equipment to unarmed security personnel working in Department of Veterans Affairs facilities across Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The requirement is set aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, ensuring eligibility is restricted to businesses owned and controlled by veterans with service-connected disabilities. The North American Industry Classification System code 424340 identifies the scope as wholesale trade of miscellaneous durable goods, indicating the procurement involves distribution of standardized safety and operational gear rather than custom manufacturing or direct services. Performance of the contract is expected to cover all VA facilities within the specified territories, requiring consistent delivery and compliance with federal standards for security equipment. The contract was posted on May 14, 2026, and is structured as a subcontract, suggesting it may be part of a larger procurement framework administered by the 248-NETWORK Contract Office 8 under the Department of Veterans Affairs. While specific delivery timelines, quantities, or technical specifications are not provided, the scope demands reliable, uniform supply across multiple locations, necessitating robust logistics, inventory management, and coordination with VA security units. The absence of a specified point of contact or detailed location data implies the contracting office will manage vendor communications centrally, with the successful bidder expected to meet all federal procurement standards including quality assurance, timely fulfillment, and adherence to VA facility security protocols.
