The Florida Department of Children and Families issued Blanket Purchase Order C786DD on July 1, 2026, for the procurement of bread products for Northeast Florida State Hospital. This contract represents the second year of a five-year agreement and carries a contract value of $65,000.00 for the performance period of July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. The blanket purchase order is structured to procure 65,000 units of bread products at a unit price of $1.00 each. This award replaces three predecessor purchase orders (C5D446, C65F44, and C69B35) due to vendor registration adjustments.

Authorized purchasing personnel for this contract are limited to Susie Herrmann (susie.herrmann@myflfamilies.com) and Linda Dumas (linda.dumas@myflfamilies.com) of the Department of Children and Families. The blanket purchase order is subject to standard state procurement terms, including price parity requirements ensuring that Department of Children and Families pricing does not exceed rates provided to the vendor's most favored customers, and includes provisions for cancellation by either party upon thirty days' written notice or immediate termination if product or service performance standards are not met. The contract's continuation beyond the initial fiscal year is contingent upon legislative appropriation by the State of Florida.
