NAICS 31111 (Animal Food Manufacturing) encompasses the production of prepared feeds and feed ingredients for livestock, poultry, and other animals. This category includes manufacturing processed grain and protein products, mineral supplements, and specialized nutritional formulations designed for various animal species. Manufacturers in this category develop complex dietary compositions that meet specific nutritional requirements for research, agricultural production, and specialized animal care environments. Federal contract awards under this NAICS code frequently involve the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) procuring specialized animal feed for research facilities. Typical contract values range from $20,000 to $400,000, with performance periods spanning 12-60 months. Most awards are set aside for small businesses under the 311119 subcategory, with a size standard of 650 employees. Common places of performance include agricultural research centers in states like Oklahoma, Idaho, Texas, and California. Frequent awardees include specialized animal nutrition manufacturers and regional feed distributors focused on research-grade feed products. Recent federal contract opportunities demonstrate diverse requirements for animal feed across multiple agencies. The CDC solicited brand-name laboratory animal feed for research specimens in Atlanta and Lawrenceville, Georgia. The USDA ARS sought various specialized feeds including cattle supplements, corn, hay, and straw for research livestock in multiple western states. The VA requested research-grade animal feed and bedding for veterinary medical units in locations like Seattle, Washington and Los Angeles, California. These opportunities consistently emphasize precise nutritional specifications, brand-name requirements, and delivery to specific research facility locations, highlighting the technical complexity of animal feed procurement for scientific research.
