About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for RFQ 2026-002 issued by the New York State Department of Health for produce procurement at Brentwood Residential Center. The RFQ seeks competitive quotes from farmers, processors, distributors, and other entities capable of supplying various New York State produce items (fruits and vegetables) to the facility. The procurement is structured as two separate lots, with respondents able to submit quotes for Lot 1, Lot 2, or both lots simultaneously. The document addresses clarifications and inquiries submitted by potential bidders regarding specifications, delivery requirements, pricing structures, and other administrative details pertinent to the RFQ process.

The RFQ includes contracting goals designed to promote participation from disadvantaged business enterprises: a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business (SDVOB) goal of 6.00%, a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) goal of 15.00%, and a Women Business Enterprise (WBE) goal of 15.00%. The Questions and Answers format indicates that no identical or substantially similar contracts have been awarded to current incumbents within the past five years. This document serves as an addendum to clarify the RFQ requirements and ensure all potential bidders have consistent understanding of the procurement specifications, evaluation criteria, and submission procedures prior to submitting their competitive quotes.
