White T-Shirts (Follow-up)

FSC 8420 - T-Shirts, White

On August 5, 2011, Federal Prison Industries, Inc. (FPI) posted a notice in the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps). In this notice, FPI announced its proposal to produce White T-Shirts, FSC 8420, on a competitive basis without invoking its mandatory source status.

FPI received one written comment from an interested party regarding this proposed production, within the 30 days allowed. The comment from the interested party and FPI’s response were forwarded to and reviewed by FPI’s Board of Directors. After consideration, on September 7, 2011, the FPI Board of Directors approved FPI to produce white t-shirts classified in FSC 8420 on a competitive basis and without the use of FPI’s mandatory source status.

White t-shirt sales will be tracked separately from all other t-shirts that FPI currently produces, since FPI will not invoke its mandatory source for white t-shirts at any time in the future.

Interested parties have a right to raise questions at any time with FPI’s Board of Directors.
