Twenty-two small business responses were received by the August 28, 2026 submission deadline at 4:00 p.m. EDT.

The award document lists 105 line items spanning the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 subsistence requirements, including kosher and halal meal packages, individual food items, proteins, dairy products, pantry staples, condiments, and beverages. Award values range from under $200 to over $52,000 per line item. Primary vendors receiving multiple awards include Shaver Foods LLC, LA FOODS LLC, MINA HOLDINGS LLC, North Star Imports LLC, and several others. Awards exceeding the $15,000 micro purchase threshold will be issued as firm-fixed-price purchase orders, while awards under $15,000 will be processed as firm-fixed-price government purchase card transactions through the local food services department. Total documented awards across all line items exceed $650,000.
