Introduction
The National Capital Commission (NCC) wishes to retain the services of a clothing supplier to establish a multi-year supply and delivery contract for the provision of uniforms and related work clothing. . The contract will be awarded for an initial three (3) year term after contract award. Based on a mutual agreement on unit prices, two (2) successive one (1) year extensions may be exercised at the same terms and conditions.
In addition to providing uniforms of the desired sizes which meet the identified technical and performance specifications, the clothing supplier will also be expected to work with NCC staff to prototype the application of the NCC’s Logo and identity on each clothing type.
Background
The National Capital Commission (NCC) provides clothing to 10 full time and approximately 5 seasonal Conservation Officers. The main function of the NCC Conservation Officers (CO’s) is to ensure the protection of the general public, the conservation of natural resources and the preservation of NCC assets.
The CO’s hold the status of Peace Officer and due to the nature of their duties are often in the public eye. As such, it is imperative that they are seen as professionals in their field while communicating an approachable, natural resources oriented authority.
The colour selected for the uniform is green (see specifications and Pantone colors provided) as it was concluded that it would be more in line with the corporate image and the nature of the duties performed.
The following Terms of Reference (TOR) define the NCC’s requirement for the supply and delivery of uniform and accessories items as well as ancillary services required by the team. The NCC is seeking a clothing supplier who will provide a turnkey operation to supply the Conservation Officers including branding and patch application for each of the uniform components as outlined in the annexes below
Annexes A1 and A2: Table of mandatory uniforms;
Annex B (optional): Table of seasonal uniforms;
Annex C: Technical specifications;
Annex D: Sample uniform drawings.
