About this file

This is a Product Availability List attachment to RFP 4001 for Local Produce Processing submitted by a Wisconsin school district's Food & Nutrition department seeking to procure processed and whole local produce. The solicitation details two categories of produce: processed items including cucumber slices, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, kohlrabi, romaine lettuce (both chopped and shredded), grape or cherry tomatoes, and sweet potato; and whole, unprocessed produce including apples, whole cucumbers, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, kohlrabi, snap peas, romaine heads, grape or cherry tomatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, and summer squash. Quantities required vary by item, with most produce needed on a weekly basis for as long as the season allows, ranging from 40 cases per week for apples to 900 cases per week for carrots and kohlrabi. Processed produce is specified with detailed preparation requirements including cut dimensions, packaging specifications, sulfite-free requirements, gas permeable packaging, and code dating. Whole produce specifications emphasize size uniformity and quality standards such as larger crowns for broccoli and cauliflower, and specific diameter requirements for various items.

The district notes that it will determine whether to purchase processed or whole produce, or a combination thereof, allowing flexibility in the contract award. Bidders are required to provide pricing information with mark-up costs per case for processed items and per case or per flat for whole produce, with blank fields indicating that pricing proposals must be submitted as part of the bid response. The document does not specify response deadlines, award dates, contract term, or renewal options, suggesting these details are contained in other sections of the RFP documentation.
