About this vehicle
FEMA Incident Support Section awarded a Master IDIQ on September 28, 2017, to establish a reliable supply chain for shelf-stable, self-heating, reduced-sodium and commercial meals throughout CONUS and OCONUS; ordering closed on September 27, 2022, and the vehicle is no longer active.
The vehicle contracted 33 task orders over its five-year life, with peak activity in 2018 (14 orders) and steady decline thereafter—2021 recorded only 6 orders before the vehicle's ordering period ended. Combined task-order potential value reached $128.1 million, with $119.3 million obligated (93% of combined value). Task orders ranged widely in scope and urgency: steady-state replenishment orders typically called for hundreds of thousands of meals for distribution-center stock, while disaster-response orders mobilized millions of meals in weeks—Hurricane Florence (September 2018) triggered five orders totaling roughly $26.9 million, and Hurricane Ida (September 2021) generated three orders worth roughly $18.7 million.
Competitive concentration was extremely high. So-Pak-Co, Inc. dominated with 15 orders totaling $77.4 million in potential value (60% of the vehicle's combined value), followed by Ameriqual Group LLC with 10 orders and $38.2 million (30%), and Chef Minute Meals, Inc. with 8 orders and $12.5 million (10%). All 33 task orders carried no set-aside designation—the vehicle operated as unrestricted competition among the three awardees. Customer concentration was similarly tight: FEMA Incident Support Section placed 28 orders valued at $100.1 million (78% of combined potential value), with the parent FEMA agency and FEMA Information Technology Section accounting for the remainder. Pricing was firm fixed price across all orders. Distribution centers in Fort Worth, Fort Bragg, Atlanta, Tracy (California), and overseas locations in Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean received shipments; cold-storage rental and logistics charges appeared in several large orders, particularly those handling multi-million-meal stockpiles during 2020 COVID-19 response.
Description
FEMA has awarded a Master IDIQ for a reliable logistical supply chain to provide shelf-stable (30-36 months), self-heating, reduced sodium and commercial meals throughout the Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside Continental United States (OCONUS).
