- The U.S. Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground, Natick Contracting Division (ACC-APG-NCD), on behalf of Product Manager - Soldier Clothing and Individual Equipment (PdM-SCIE), intends to award Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contracts to Altama, McRae Industries, Inc., Rocky Brands, Inc., and Wolverine World Wide, Inc. The anticipated award date will be no later than 14 July 2017. PdM-SCIE has a requirement to procure 150 pairs of Variant 2 Jungle Combat Boots (JCB) per vendor for a combined total of 600 pairs. This requirement is in support of the Chief of Staff of the Army (CSA), JCB Amended Directed Requirement dated 8 March 2017, which requires a JCB to support Soldiers who currently operate or have the potential to conduct operations in a tropical jungle environment.

PdM SCIE intends to procure and test innovative JCBs designed from industry to support this requirement for the Variant 2. A Request for Information (W911QY-17-EPCF) was posted on 26 April 2017 to solicit from industry any potential manufacturing and/or material improvements that may be of benefit in updating the design and construction of the Army's Jungle Combat Boot. All questions pertaining to this acquisition shall be addressed, via email only, to Mr. Jason Papadopoulos at jason.g.papadopoulos.civ@mail.mil.
