The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA), a Defense Department component, awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Gill Group, Inc.'s Gill Marketing Company Division. The $14,291,987.41 IDC provides for the delivery of foodservice equipment and supplies to support DeCA's worldwide chain of military commissaries. Delivery orders awarded to date include scale labeler wrappers, stand-alone scales, and printer stands worth over $2 million. The products are being delivered to various locations, primarily in Phoenix, Arizona and other CONUS sites, to enhance DeCA's ability to efficiently package and label grocery items for sale to active duty, retired, and reserve military personnel and their families. The contracts are fixed-price and do not contain any set-aside designations, reflecting DeCA's use of open competition to meet its equipment needs.
The IDC originated from a 2019 solicitation for commercial-off-the-shelf automated scale labeler and wrapping systems, as well as standalone scale and printer units, to support commissary operations nationwide. As the grocery resale component of the Defense Department, DeCA utilizes this type of equipment to package and label scaled food products for sale at reduced prices to its authorized customer base of military members and their households.
