6._Estimated_Institution_Usage.xlsx

This is an Estimated Institution Usage attachment for a California state procurement solicitation (Event ID# 0000038924) managed by buyer Jennifer Jee, detailing annual consumption quantities for three pudding and gelatin commodity items across state institutions. The solicitation covers three distinct commodities: Pudding Mix (89-12), Gelatin (89-31), and Pudding, Ready-to-Serve (89-76). The estimated usage is organized into two geographic areas, with Area 1 encompassing Northern California institutions such as Pelican Bay Prison, San Quentin Prison, and various state hospitals, while Area 2 covers Southern California facilities including Avenal Prison, Corcoran Prison, and multiple correctional institutions. For Pudding Mix, the combined annual quantity across both areas totals 4,484 units with quarterly delivery schedules to most institutions. Gelatin requirements total 1,140 units of standard gelatin and 1,260 units of sugar-free gelatin annually, also predominantly on quarterly delivery schedules. Ready-to-Serve pudding encompasses eight varieties (banana, butterscotch, chocolate, lemon, tapioca, vanilla, chocolate individual, and vanilla individual) with annual combined quantities of 12,084 units across both areas, with delivery frequencies varying from weekly to monthly to quarterly depending on the institution.

The document provides granular consumption data by institution and product type, enabling suppliers to understand demand patterns across California's correctional and institutional facilities. Notably, some institutions are marked with "X" indicating special considerations or different ordering arrangements, while others show zero quantities for specific products, reflecting facility-specific dietary or operational requirements. Delivery schedules vary by institution, with weekly deliveries to Yountville Veteran's Home and monthly deliveries to facilities such as High Desert State Prison, Atascadero State Hospital, and several others, while the majority of institutions receive quarterly deliveries. This estimated usage data serves as the baseline for supplier bidding and contract performance expectations under the solicitation.
