Product Service Code (PSC) 8910 encompasses dairy foods and eggs, representing a critical category of nutritional and food service products for federal government agencies. These products include milk, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, sour cream, eggs, and related dairy derivatives used across various institutional settings such as correctional facilities, military installations, and federal nutrition assistance programs. The category covers both fresh and processed dairy items, with specific requirements for packaging, freshness, religious dietary certifications, and delivery specifications.

Federal Contract Awards under PSC 8910 demonstrate a robust market with numerous small business vendors supplying dairy products to federal agencies, particularly the Department of Justice's Bureau of Prisons and the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service. Contract values range from approximately $2,000 to over $5 million, typically with quarterly or annual performance periods. Frequently awarded entities include small businesses like Larc Industries, Chef Mumsie's Brands, Clipper Commodities, and larger dairy cooperatives such as Saputo Cheese USA and Associated Milk Producers Inc. Most awards are total small business set-asides, with many designated as women-owned, minority-owned, or HUBZone small businesses. Delivery locations span federal correctional facilities, military bases, and food assistance distribution centers across the United States.

Recent Federal Contract Opportunities in this PSC category primarily focus on procuring milk, eggs, and cheese for institutional food service programs. Solicitations come from diverse federal agencies including the Bureau of Prisons, Department of Agriculture, and Department of Veterans Affairs. Most opportunities are structured as firm-fixed-price contracts with delivery periods ranging from one to three months, typically covering the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Procurement requirements often include strict specifications such as kosher certification, specific milk fat percentages, temperature control during transportation, and weekly delivery schedules. Solicitations consistently emphasize small business participation, with many set aside exclusively for small business vendors, and often include provisions for faith-based and community-based organizations to participate equally.
