About this file
This document is a food recall and biosecurity requirements sheet for the RFP-2601AM Purchase of School Nutrition Program Food Items and Distribution Services issued by Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) in Georgia. The file establishes mandatory vendor compliance procedures for food recall identification, removal, and notification processes in accordance with 7 CFR 250 federal regulations. Selected vendors must maintain accurate and timely communication protocols with the school food authority (SFA) to ensure unsafe products are expeditiously identified and removed from GCPS sites. Vendors are required to submit a separate document detailing their complete food recall policies and procedures as part of their bid submission. Additionally, vendors must provide primary and backup contact information for their food recall response coordinator to the school nutrition director, with GCPS identifying Karen Hallford (678-301-6245, Karen.hallford@gcpsk12.org) as the primary contact and Heedy Monreal (678-301-6246, Heedy.monreal@gcpsk12.org) as the backup contact.
Vendors must also develop and implement written biosecurity policies and procedures in compliance with the 2002 Bioterrorism Act under both the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services FDA and the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service. This biosecurity documentation must be submitted with the vendor's bid proposal. The requirements ensure comprehensive food supply chain security and rapid response capabilities to protect the health and safety of students and staff across GCPS, which operates as the largest school district in Georgia.
