This Request for Quote (RFQ) is for Certified Foods for the Danbury Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, covering the 2nd Quarter Budget for Fiscal Year 2026. The solicitation covers a diverse range of kosher and halal food items across three storage areas: Cold, Dry, and Frozen. Key product categories include individual packaged items such as margarine, cereal, jelly, mustard, oatmeal, potato chips, sardines, tartar sauce, tuna, vegetable juice, and several prepared meals including chicken wing meals, cheese omelet meals, chicken chow mein meals, pasta meals, and spaghetti/meatball meals.

The RFQ specifies precise product requirements, including packaging specifications, kosher/halal certification, ingredient composition, and portion sizes. Quantities vary by item, ranging from 12 Halal Beans & Franks Meals to 2,500 Kosher Oatmeal individual packets. Each item requires specific kosher or halal certification, with detailed notes on ingredient composition, fat content, and labeling requirements. The solicitation allows for quantity adjustments to the next highest case count and mandates that each individual package be marked with the appropriate kosher or halal certification hechsher. The RFQ number is 15B20326Q00000015, with a bid group of "Any" and a focus on Certified Foods.
