Attachment 1 - Schedule of Items CT MA RI UPDATED.xlsx

The document is an Excel-based Schedule of Items (SOI) for a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence Agency for fresh fruits and vegetables in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The schedule contains two distinct groups: Group 1a for Non-DoD Schools and Group 1b for DoD Troops, with detailed line items for various produce products. The Non-DoD Schools group includes 28 line items with a 24-month estimated quantity of 1,522,916 cases, valued at approximately $49.3 million, while the DoD Troops group has 43 line items with a 24-month estimated quantity of 90,812 cases, valued at approximately $2.3 million.

The produce items range from fresh fruits like apples, bananas, and strawberries to vegetables including broccoli, carrots, lettuce, and spinach, with specific requirements for packaging, size, and quality (such as US#1 grade). The RFI is a market research initiative to gather feedback on produce support for military and USDA school customers, with no commitment to future business. The government emphasizes that this is purely for informational purposes to assist in crafting a future solicitation, and respondents will not be compensated for their input.
