The federal contract IDV award is a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Subsistence division to Grasmick Produce Co., Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged, woman-owned small business. The contract has a ceiling value of $4,900,000.00 and a period of performance through May 5, 2029. Under this IDC, Grasmick Produce Co., Inc. provides a full line of USDA Grade Number 1 or better quality fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as shell eggs, to both Department of Defense (DoD) Troop and United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) School and Reservation customers located in the Idaho zone. The contract consists of two distinct groups: Group 1 for DoD/Troop customers and Group 2 for USDA School and Reservation customers. This IDC represents a substantial commitment by Grasmick Produce Co., Inc. to support USDA's nutritional programs in Montana over a five-year period, demonstrating the company's capacity to handle large-scale, long-term produce supply contracts for federal customers.
The solicitation that resulted in this IDC award was a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the DLA Troop Support Subsistence division, seeking comments and feedback regarding the agency's full line produce support to DoD and USDA customers throughout the Continental United States. The RFI did not constitute a commitment from the government, but rather was intended to conduct market research to assist the agency in creating an appropriate solicitation in the future. The RFI provided details on the planned solicitation structure, including the Idaho zone, the two distinct customer groups, and the requirement for offerors to propose on all items in the Schedule of Items for each group.
