Purchase and Delivery of Food/Snacks Office of Border Patrol (OBP) - Tucson Sector Customs and Border Protection Page 1 of 6

1. BACKGROUND

As a component of Department of Homeland Security (DHS), US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is responsible for protecting our Nation’s borders in order to prevent terrorists and terrorist weapons from entering the United States, while facilitating the flow of legitimate trade and travel. CBP is also responsible for apprehending individuals attempting to enter the U.S. illegally; stemming the flow of drugs and other contraband; protecting our agricultural and economic interests from harmful pests and diseases; protecting American business from theft of their intellectual property; and regulating and facilitating international trade, collecting import duties, and enforcing U.S. trade laws.

The United States Border Patrol (USBP), Tucson Sector has a requirement for a bulk Snack Food purchase for immigrant use. The requirement is to have pre-packaged snacks delivery to the location listed in paragraph 2.2 for distribution as needed.

2. SCOPE

USBP holds detainees that are classified as Single Adults, Unaccompanied Children (UAC) and/or Family Units (FAMU). USBP facilities are designed to hold detainees for a minimal amount of time before being transported to other more well-equipped holding locations. While in Tucson Sector USBP custody, detainees will be provided snack food items that will be available between scheduled meals.

2.1. This requirement for food items is a component of the operational program for feeding Tucson Sector detainees. It is expected and intended that other sources of food items will be utilized during the term of the contract. This contract is not intended to serve as the only source of food items for detainees.

2.2. This requirement is not intended to be a complete food menu for detainees. Food items delivered under the resultant contract may be used as part of a specialized food menu (e.g., infants, children, pregnant women, adults) but are not intended to be the complete operational program for food items for OBP detainees.

2.3. Meals for detainees may be provided from sparse or minimal facilities, so the food items delivered per this requirement are not intended to require significant food handling or preparation. All food items delivered under the resulting contract will contain nutritional labels as set forth by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA).
