The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Subsistence Directorate awarded a $12.4 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Sysco USA I, Inc., a subsidiary of Sysco Corporation, to provide various subsistence items from Federal Supply Group 8900 or commercial equivalents to military customers in the Utah region. This single-award IDC, which runs through March 2027, facilitates the streamlined procurement of a wide range of food and beverage products, including meats, seafood, dairy, produce, and other supplies, to support military dining facilities, commissaries, and other government food service operations. Sysco USA I, Inc. has been issued multiple delivery orders against this IDC, valued at up to hundreds of thousands of dollars each, to deliver specific subsistence items such as chicken breast fillets, beef, pork, salmon, and frozen entrees to locations in West Valley City, Utah. The contract does not have any set-aside designations, leveraging Sysco's extensive distribution network and logistics expertise to efficiently meet the DLA's critical mission requirements of sustaining military readiness.
The original solicitation, issued in October 2020 under full and open competition, sought proposals for a Subsistence Prime Vendor contract to provide a variety of subsistence items to the Utah region. The DLA sought a contractor that could interface with the government's established transaction and data interchange processes, deliver items on a "just-in-time" basis, and meet pricing requirements subject to economic price adjustments. The maximum value of the procurement was set at $12.4 million, with a base period of 24 months and two 12 and 24 month option periods, to support the nutritional needs of military personnel and other government customers in the Utah and surrounding areas.
