Statement of Work

To Assist the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Marketing Service, Federal Grain Inspection Service In Providing Commodity Inspection and Weighing Services

2.1 INTRODUCTION

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), facilitates the marketing of U.S. grain and related agricultural products through the establishment of standards for quality assessments, and regulation of handling practices. AMS’s Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS) administers the official commodity inspection and weighing program under the authority of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (AMA), as amended. The AMA authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to contract with private firms, institutions, and individuals for the purpose of performing specified inspection services. FGIS will use this contracting authority to supplement its workforce by contracting with private companies and individuals to sample, inspect, and weigh commodities when requested by FGIS-Field Management Division.

2.2 SCOPE OF WORK

Contractor must provide processed commodity inspection and weighing services under the authority of the AMA in the geographical area serviced by the FGIS Domestic Inspection Operations Office (DIOO). The commodity plants are located at the following locations: Didion Milling, N1881 County Road A, Markesan, Wisconsin & Didion Milling, 501 S Williams St, Cambria, Wisconsin.

Work at the plant may include any or all activities in the Processed Commodities Handbook, Weighing Handbook, Condition of Food Container Handbooks, Sanitation Handbook, and applicable Directives. The commodity inspection services that FGIS may assign to the contractor may include any of the following services:

a. Sampling Service. Drawing a sample from a processed commodity lot using FGIS-approved methods to obtain representative samples for laboratory analysis to determine quality based upon contract requirements and instructions.

b. Condition of Food Container Inspection. Examining the containers for condition, construction, sealing, and markings using U.S. Standards for Condition of Food Containers. (Reference: Agricultural Marketing Service, Part 42--Standards for Condition of Food Containers)

c. Checkweighing. Weighing a selected number of containers from a processed commodity lot, determining the estimated total gross, tare, and net weight, or the estimated average gross or net weight per filled container. (Reference: Weighing Handbook, Chapter 4)

d. Carrier Stowage Examination. Visually determine if a carrier or container is clean; dry;

free of infestation, rodents, toxic substances, and foreign odor; and suitable to store or carry a commodity. (Reference: Directive FGIS 9180.48)

e. Checkloading. Performing a stowage examination on a carrier, computing the number of filled containers loaded aboard the carrier, observing the condition of containers loaded aboard the carrier, and sealing the loaded carrier, if practicable. (Reference:

Directive FGIS 9180.50)

The number and kind of work activities at each plant may expand or be reduced during the contract period based on requests FGIS-Field Management Division (FMD) receives from interested parties involved in purchasing and producing product and FGIS-FMD’s performance assessment of the contractor.

2.3 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS

Contractor must perform all commodity inspection and weighing related services in accordance with the AMA (7 U.S.C. 71 et seq.), regulations (7 CFR Part 868 subpart A), Handbooks, instructions, methods, policies, and procedures.
