About this IDV
Frontier Trading Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business and American Indian-owned agricultural supplier, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract by the United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service (USDA ARS) for the provision of large straw bales to support the National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa. The contract, valued at $18,000, is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 111940 (Hay Farming) and covers a 12-month performance period from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. The straw bales must meet high-quality specifications, including US Grade No. 1 certification from 2024 or 2025 crops, delivered in large square bale dimensions of 3'x3'x8', 3'x4'x8', or 4'x4'x8' using rot-proof twine. Deliveries must be completed within five business days of order placement and delivered Monday through Friday during standard business hours directly to the USDA facility in Ames, Iowa, with anticipated annual demand ranging between 15 and 120 tons.
The award to Frontier Trading Inc. resulted from a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology applied to a combined synopsis/solicitation posted on December 12, 2024, with a proposal deadline of December 18, 2024. This IDIQ contract represents one of three significant agricultural product awards to the prime contractor from USDA ARS for the Midwest Area, including parallel contracts for grass hay large square bales valued at $72,800 and premium alfalfa hay valued at $36,250. The contract reflects USDA ARS's ongoing commitment to securing reliable, quality-controlled agricultural commodity supplies for its federal research mission and demonstrates Frontier Trading Inc.'s established capacity to meet precise government procurement specifications for specialized agricultural research support requirements.
