Blanket Purchase Agreement W912KZ22A0004

The Department of the Army awarded a blanket purchase agreement (BPA) to Khalil Batshon Inc., doing business as Khalil's, to provide catering services for various Army units and programs located throughout Kentucky. Over the five-year period of performance from January 2022 to January 2027, the BPA has a potential value of $2.5 million. Under the BPA's terms and conditions, the Army issued several calls for fixed price orders to procure meals to support training exercises, mobilizations and other events. Khalil's, as the prime contractor and a small business, provided breakfast, dinner and refreshment catering for units in Frankfort, Louisville, Madisonville and West Paducah. Individual orders ranged from approximately $2,854 to $45,900 to cover two week to two month performance periods. All orders were set aside for total small businesses and aimed to efficiently meet Soldiers' sustenance needs while also allocating a portion of contracting dollars to small firms.

The Department of the Army established the BPA and subsequent calls to streamline the recurring procurement of meal services for its various Kentucky-based units and programs. Khalil's, performing as the prime contractor across multiple locations, fulfilled these orders by delivering food that supported training, mobilization and community outreach efforts. The contract leveraged an existing purchasing vehicle to meet requirements and promote socioeconomic goals related to small business participation in federal contracting.
