The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Subsistence awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at $315,000.00 to Hiland Dairy Foods Company, LLC for the delivery of fresh milk, dairy, and ice cream products to military customers in Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana. The contract has an ultimate completion date of May 13, 2028. Hiland Dairy, a for-profit limited liability company and manufacturer of dairy products based in Springfield, Missouri, will provide a comprehensive range of dairy items including fluid milk, reduced-fat chocolate milk, nonfat dry milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, and ice cream under this IDC. The contract was not set aside for any specific business category and was openly competed. The original solicitation was a Request for Information (RFI) issued by DLA Troop Support to gather market feedback in preparation for a future indefinite quantity contract covering six potential geographic groups across the three states. The RFI outlined stringent freshness requirements for the dairy products, with specific shelf-life minimums ranging from 10 days for fluid milk to 120 days for ice cream. Vendors will be required to propose on all items in the Schedule of Items for each group they wish to bid on.
