Blanket Purchase Agreement SPE30221A0009

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Pacific, a component of the U.S. Department of Defense, awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) contract to Makita Co., Inc., a minority and woman-owned small business located in Japan. The BPA, valued at up to $250,000, enables DLA Troop Support Pacific to rapidly acquire a wide range of food products and related items to support U.S. military dining facilities and subsistence needs in Japan and the broader Pacific region.

Under the BPA, DLA Troop Support Pacific has issued numerous firm fixed-price task orders to Makita Co., Inc. for the delivery of specialized food items such as noodles, sauces, spices, oils, vinegars, coffee, coconut products, and other culturally-specific supplies. The task orders, ranging from a few dollars to over $40,000, demonstrate the flexibility and broad scope of this procurement vehicle in fulfilling the agency's mission of provisioning U.S. forces stationed in the Pacific theater. The contract does not utilize any set-aside designations, allowing DLA Troop Support Pacific to leverage Makita Co., Inc.'s expertise as a local supplier to efficiently source these necessary food items.
