About this file

This Addendum No. 01, issued by the Louisiana Office of State Procurement on October 7, 2026, modifies the Invitation to Bid (ITB) RFx Number 3000026750 for grocery items for canteen resale at the Louisiana Department of Corrections Wakefield facility. The primary change corrects the quantity for Line 32 (Turkey or Chicken Frankfurters) from 1,400 pounds to 14,000 pounds, aligning the solicitation with historical purchasing patterns that have consistently ranged between 7,000 and 16,000 pounds monthly. The bid opening remains scheduled for October 13, 2026, at 10:00 AM Central Time. Vendors who have already submitted bids may acknowledge receipt of this addendum without revising their bids or submit revised bids prior to the opening date. Revisions must be delivered by mail, hand delivery, courier, or fax to the Office of State Procurement at 1201 N. 3rd Street, Suite 2-160, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70802, or by fax to (225) 342-9756, with no electronic submissions other than fax being accepted.

The correction was made in response to a vendor inquiry questioning whether the original 1,400-pound quantity was accurate given the historical data demonstrating significantly higher monthly volumes. The state confirmed the revised quantity of 14,000 pounds with the response that all other terms of the original ITB remain unchanged. Bidders are notified that failure to execute an acknowledgement does not relieve them from compliance with their bid terms, and revisions received after bid opening will not be considered. Contact for questions is LaKeisha Bryant, Office of State Procurement, at (225) 342-4824 or LaKeisha.Bryant2@la.gov.

Vendor’s Inquiry #1: The Line 32 Item, Turkey or Chicken Frankfurters; is this truly only 1,400 lbs.? Historically, Louisiana has never asked for this quantity, so I wanted to confirm whether this was accurate. See below the historical data showing this item's volume over time, and you'll see why I am asking.
