About this IDV
Frontier Trading Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged and American Indian-owned business, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery contract valued at $29,000 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service Midwest Area on January 15, 2025. Under this total small business set-aside contract (solicitation number 12505B25Q0041), the contractor will supply grass hay round bales to the National Animal Disease Center located at 1920 Dayton Avenue in Ames, Iowa, through January 14, 2026. The contract requires delivery of round bales meeting specific technical standards, including grass varieties such as Orchard Grass, Brome, and Timothy, with a Relative Feed Value of 70-120 and Crude Protein content of 7-12 percent. Individual bales must be sourced from the 2024 crop year, net-wrapped, weigh 1,400 pounds or more, and measure 4 to 6 feet in width. The government established a minimum order quantity of 15 tons with a ceiling of 200 tons over the contract period, with all deliveries required within five working days of order receipt using clean vehicles that have not previously transported livestock.
The procurement was evaluated using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable methodology, prioritizing vendors' ability to meet detailed technical specifications before price consideration. Frontier Trading Inc. must accept credit card payments and include all transportation and unloading costs within quoted pricing. The contractor's demonstrated expertise in supplying agricultural commodities to federal research facilities, coupled with its existing portfolio of multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts with the Agricultural Research Service, positions it to fulfill the National Animal Disease Center's hay requirements. This contract supports the Agricultural Research Service's livestock and research operations, a core function of the agency's mission to conduct agricultural research benefiting the nation's farming and food production systems.
