Indefinite Delivery Contract 1202SC22T2007

This indefinite delivery contract (IDC) awarded by the USDA Forest Service's National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) is for the provision of "Call When Needed (CWN) Mobile Food Service Units (MFSU)" to support wildland firefighting and incident response operations across the western United States. The multiple-award, $7.5M ceiling value, ID/IQ contract allows federal agencies to order catering services on an as-needed basis through May 2032. The prime contractor, Blue Moon Catering Inc., is a self-certified small disadvantaged business that has received several delivery orders to date, including a $793,317.50 award for mobile food services in Arizona, a $147,666 order for services in Idaho, and a $114,563.25 award for catering in New Mexico. These firm fixed price task orders will provide freshly prepared hot/cold meals, sack lunches, and supplemental items to support wildland fire response and other incident management activities. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.

The original solicitation sought proposals for BPAs to establish multiple-award agreements for CWN MFSU services. Offerors were required to submit detailed pricing for equipment, meals, and supplemental items, with awards made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable proposals. The contracted services are expected to supplement the Forest Service's existing national catering contracts when those resources are unavailable or additional capacity is needed to support field operations during emergencies and incidents across the western states.
