These bandages are crucial to the medical facilities and operations across the military and have very specific features, including being latex-free and self-adhering, with individual packaging.

    The agency aims to create a Qualified Suppliers Listing (QSL) for these essential medical supplies, and the focus for this opportunity is on establishing a standardized supply of cohesive bandages that meet exacting technical specifications. The QSL will ensure a consistent and reliable source of these specialized bandages for military use.

These requirements include FDA regulations, specific dimensional specifications, and hand-tearability. Vendors must also have the necessary agreements and approvals in place to supply these products and are expected to provide detailed product information to support their applications.

    While the file summary does not provide explicit deadlines, it highlights the agency's goal to create the QSL by August 2024, indicating a submission deadline in June. The evaluation of vendors will be based on their ability to meet the numerous and detailed requirements, with particular attention to the completeness of their submissions.

    Interested parties should direct any inquiries to the primary contact, Ms. Kathleen Harne, or the secondary contact, Ms. Vivian Alexander, both of whom are contractors for the DEPT OF DEFENSE.

    This opportunity is a crucial step towards a reliable and efficient supply of these critical medical items for the military, and vendors that can meet the exactingly high standards and tight deadlines should consider applying.
