MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine Army is procuring 3,159 pairs of cotton uniforms worth over P45 million.

Army spokesman Lt. Col. Randolf Cabangbang said the procurement of brand new suits, camouflage and 100 percent cotton battle dress attire is in line with the continuing small ticket acquisition program being enforced by the Army leadership.

The Army will procure the uniforms through a bidding process to be administered by the Philippine International Trading Corp. (PITC), a government corporation under the Department of Trade and Industry.

“To avoid direct contact among our own people with suppliers, it’s the PITC, a partner of the Philippine Army, that will be conducting the bidding process to screen qualified suppliers,” Cabangbang said.
