Large Business Set A Side Unrestriced (Bread).pdf

This is a Set-Aside Status Determination document for a federal procurement at FCI Talladega. The solicitation number is 15B31326Q00000007 for Bread Products. The contracting officer signed and dated the document on 2/23/2026.

The determination addresses the small business set-aside eligibility for this procurement. Based on FAR 19.502-2(b), the contracting officer concluded that past procurements of this nature have demonstrated insufficient small business participation, with a reasonable expectation that quotations will not be obtained from at least two responsible small business concerns at fair market prices. Consequently, the contracting officer determined that the solicitation will be issued on an unrestricted basis rather than as a set-aside exclusively for small business participation.
