School districts and state departments dominate the issuing-body mix, supplemented by municipal nutrition programs and state correctional systems. Recent solicitations emphasize compliance with Buy American provisions (requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products), USDA grade certification, HACCP food-safety protocols, and firm fixed pricing over multi-year contract periods.
