The U.S. Army Forces Command (FORSCOM) awarded a single-award, Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Stephey Livestock Inc., a woman-owned small business, for the delivery of horse feed and related equine products to support operations at Fort Irwin, California. The IDC has a ceiling value of $293,916 and a period of performance from December 2020 to December 2025. Under this contract, FORSCOM has issued multiple firm fixed-price delivery orders to Stephey Livestock, typically valued between $10,000 and $20,000, for the provision of alfalfa hay, grass hay, feed pellets, supplements, and other horse sustenance items. These deliveries support the equine requirements of cavalry, ceremonial, and other mounted units training at the Fort Irwin National Training Center. Stephey Livestock has a proven track record of supplying horse-related goods and services to federal agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management and the Bureau of Prisons, in addition to its longstanding relationship with FORSCOM.
The original contract solicitation was released as a 100% small business set-aside for the delivery of a variety of horse feed products to Fort Irwin over a five-year period. The solicitation outlined monthly estimated quantities for items such as alfalfa hay, grass hay, feed pellets, beet pulp, electrolyte powder, joint supplements, and mineral blocks. The IDC structure provides FORSCOM with a reliable, pre-established contract vehicle to repeatedly order the necessary equine sustenance to maintain readiness and support its training mission at the premier National Training Center.
