1. Background
1.1 The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) provides a military pay benefit for Department of Defense (DOD) personnel through the provision of grocery resale operations offering products and services for installation events to 170 Contiguous United States (CONUS) Commissary locations. As the missions evolve for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard (the "Services"), DeCA's mission must adjust to meet their needs to include delivery services.
DeCA uses an Enterprise Business Solution (EBS) with an application programming interface (API) referred to as FreShop(r), which is a proprietary API of NCR. The eCommerce application enables the services to place bulk orders for products and services to be delivered. Currently, 16 Commissary locations place bulk orders for fresh foods to include dry, chill and frozen products.
The Contractor shall provide a fully functioning interface (Application Programming Interface, or API) with DeCA's eCommerce application. NCR's proprietary FreShop(r) application is the current solution for DeCA's eCommerce platform.
1.2. This is a non-personal services contract to provide eCommerce bulk delivery of dry, chill and frozen grocery products via less than full truck load (LTL) to destinations within a 30-mile radius of the brick-and-mortar Commissary locations. Currently, 16 Commissary locations provide bulk grocery delivery orders for fresh foods to include dry, chill and frozen products. Over-time, additional commissary locations--up to154 more--may begin using this bulk delivery service as their operational needs evolve. This expansion will build upon the existing 16 locations. DeCA will provide the contractor 30 days 'calendar notice for each new location beyond the original 16 locations.

Delivery includes pick-up, transport, and drop-off of the grocery products. Currently, 16 Commissary locations receive bulk grocery delivery orders to include dry, chill and frozen products. Over-time, additional commissary locations--up to 154 more--may begin using this bulk delivery service as their operational needs evolve. This expansion will build upon the existing 16 locations.

This clause establishes the Government's obligation solely to order the minimum amount specified above.
(c) Satisfaction of Minimum Guarantee. The Government's obligation under this clause will be satisfied upon the issuance of delivery/task orders in the cumulative amount of $[10,000.00]. If the total value of orders issued by the end of the base period is less than this amount, the Contractor may submit a claim for the difference between the total value of orders issued and the minimum guarantee.
