SUBSISTENCE CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS

Subsistence for Dredge Goetz Crew

The Dredge Goetz will require grocery deliveries during the dredging season (April – December). This fixed price contract is for furnishing and delivering subsistence and related supplies for the Dredge Goetz vessel to one of the listed delivery sites.

Nonperishable groceries /dry goods groceries are typically ordered 2‐3 times during the dredging season. Perishable items (fresh produce, dairy, and meats) are typically ordered on a weekly or bi‐ weekly basis throughout the dredge season. The delivery days and sites are coordinated with the Dredge Goetz and may occur Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The Dredge Goetz travels the Upper Mississippi River, from Minneapolis, MN to Memphis, TN.

The Dredge Goetz crew will assist with offloading of groceries from the Contractor’s boat/truck.

We anticipate 2 ‐3 large nonperishable orders and smaller weekly/bi‐weekly perishable orders which will not exceed the not to exceed (NTE) value(s) in the contract. Invoices will be paid according to the prices established at time of award.

Furnish subsistence and supplies for the US Dredge Goetz in accordance with the following specifications:

1. Contractor shall deliver restaurant quality meats and vegetables and retail/consumer sizes of all contracted items. Packaging, units, and sizes listed are those that the Government requires due to crew size and limited storage capacity. Special emphasis is placed on the fact that the Government may order broken cases and small quantities. The Government does not propose any minimum orders for individual items. If an offer proposes to establish minimum orders on any items, i.e. xx amount of any item or only full cases, this stipulation must be made in the offeror’s proposal for the Government to consider during proposal evaluation.

2. ITEMS to be supplied and specifications for delivery:

a. Meat Products: Restaurant quality steaks, roasts, sausages, burgers, poultry, etc. All fresh meat products shall be vacuum-packed for freezer storage. Packages must be marked with the type of cut, portion size (when applicable), total weight, and date of packaging (freshness dating). All meat shall be fresh chilled, not frozen, unless otherwise specified in Schedule of Items (Listing of Contract Items). Meat shall be USDA Grade CHOICE or higher. Steaks shall be a minimum of 1” thick, trimmed to a maximum of ¼” fat. Poultry products shall be USDA Grade “A”. Poultry parts shall be wrapped airtight or deep-tray inert wrapped for freezing, with same identifications as other meat products. Whole birds shall be individually bagged and cased in boxes that will allow for direct freezing.

b. Frozen Vegetables/Food Items: Frozen vegetables (peas, carrots, broccoli, etc.), fries and potatoes, breaded vegetables, etc. All packaging shall be suitable for immediate freezing. If not in manufacturer’s original packaging, products shall be similarly packaged and labeled relative to product, weight, and freshness date. Items must be delivered frozen, not allowed to thaw or begin thawing. Package sizes will be retail/consumer (store) standard, unless otherwise specified (i.e., no industrial-sized packaging unless specified).

c. Dairy Products: Milks, yogurts, cheeses, butters, eggs, and creams. All items will be in consumer-standard packaging except as specified on Schedule of Items (Listing of Contract Items). Maximum freshness life will be provided, and freshness dating required. Milks and creams will have an expiration date of at least one week after delivery.

d. Fresh Fruit: Restaurant quality - All varieties and seasonal types. Fruit will be packaged in industry-standard containers to maximize freshness longevity, and provided as fresh as possible, with no major bruising, wilting, excessive ripeness, or decay upon delivery inspection.

e. Fresh Produce and Vegetables: Restaurant quality lettuce, cabbage, onions, potatoes, garlic, celery, carrots, etc. Packaging and presentation same as Fresh Fruit, Iceberg Lettuce heads shall be individually wrapped. Leaf lettuce shall be appropriately bound and marked as to type.

f. Breads: Breads, rolls, etc. These items to be packaged in a manner that protects against crushing or damage (i.e., bread/buns delivery trays), maximum of 3 days old (i.e., direct from bakery or same-day delivery to supplier), with freshness dating on each package.

g. Dry Goods: All other general items as provided on Schedule of Items (Listing of Contract Items), including canned vegetables, cereals, soups, sauces, chips, cookies, and the like. Canned soups and vegetables shall be in #303 cans unless otherwise specified in the Schedule of Items (Listing of Contract Items). Canned Fruits shall be in #21/2 cans unless otherwise specified in the Schedule of Items (Listing of Contract Items). Juices shall be in plastic bottles where possible, unless otherwise specified in the Schedule of Items (Listing of Contract Items).

Note: Canned and bottled consumables must have expiration dates at least six months after delivery.

h. Ice Cream: Bulk Ice Cream containers, ice milks, ice cream bars, Popsicles, ice cream mixes, ice cream snacks. All ice cream shall be delivered hard-frozen, having never thawed prior to delivery. BOX EXTERIORS SHALL BE CLEARLY MARKED “ICE CREAM—KEEP FROZEN” for rapid identification and priority handling upon delivery.

i. Non-Food Items: Cleaners, trash bags, cups, plastics, paper towels and other paper products, soaps, bleaches, etc. are to be provided in consumer-standard packaging and in quantities and sizes as specified in Schedule of Items.

Note: The subsistence items listed on Attachment 1 (Schedule of Items - Listing of Contract Items) are ESTIMATES ONLY and will be used for pricing evaluation purposes only. Annual usage amounts in each category are estimates only and do not guarantee purchase and delivery. The quantities listed in Attachment 1 are not intended to indicate any quantities that will be ordered on any resulting contract.

3. SUBSTITUTIONS: By mutual written agreement between the Contracting Officer and Contractor items ordered may be substituted for a similar item or brand when circumstances make it difficult to fill a particular line item ordered within the following guidelines.

a. Contractor winning award will be expected and required to deliver exact Brands and Sizes or Units contained in the contract resulting from their proposal over the life of the Contract unless, a modification is agreed to by the Contracting Officer and the Contractor. Non-delivery of items or unauthorized substitutions can result in termination of the contract for cause in accordance with the contract’s Commercial Items Clause FAR 52.212-4.

b. No substitutions will be authorized that change the unit or size of the ordered item to a smaller size unless the proposed substitute provides the same total units at the same price and prior approval is obtained from the Contracting Officer. Example: a proposed substitution of two 6-ounce containers in lieu of one 12- ounce container.

Any proposed substitution must be approved by the Government prior to delivery. Offeror should review FAR Clause 52.211-17 “Delivery of Excess Quantities”

c. No substitutions for a larger unit/size will be approved unless the price is the same as the smaller unit/size. Example: a proposed substitution for a 12-ounce package may be approved if the price is the same as the 10-ounce package in the Attachment 1 (Schedule of Items). This is required as with short lead times, there is insufficient time to conduct required market research and modify the contract prior to an individual delivery. Any proposed substitution must be approved by the Government prior to delivery. Offeror should review FAR Clause 52.211-17 “Delivery of Excess

Quantities”.

d. No items can be ordered that are not listed in Attachment 1 (Schedule of Items). Any items outside the contract list in Attachment 1 must be purchased through other means unless Attachment 1 (Schedule of Items) modified by mutual agreement.

4. ORDERING: One Purchase Order will be issued via Standard Form 1449 and signed by the Contracting Officer at award. A modification to the Purchase Order will be issued for each Option period if exercised. The Purchase Order and modification will be established with a not to exceed (NTE) value. Ordering officers (designated below) are authorized to make individual orders/shipments against the purchase order up to the NTE value. Time and place of delivery will be specified when order is placed and must be confirmed 24 hours prior to delivery. Large subsistence orders will generally be made every 3-4 months depending on ship’s schedule. Smaller orders for perishables and sudden-need items may be made weekly or bi-weekly. Notice of the next order will normally be made via email to the vendor’s 24-hour email address showing the items and quantity needed on an attached excel copy of the contract’s Attachment 1 (Schedule of Items). The backup ordering procedure will be via FAX or phone. The vendor/contractor must provide a 24-hour email address and backup phone and FAX number prior to contract award (alternative communication means may be considered if presented). All efforts will be made to provide an advance notice of at least five (5) calendar days for each order; however, the ship’s operations and schedule uncertainties may sometimes shorten this lead-time. Cancellation or location change for delivery may be made during the last 24 hours prior to delivery due to a sudden change in ship’s status. While infrequent, the vendor should anticipate this factor, and no pena l ty costs for restocking or altered delivery shall be placed upon the Government.

The Government may occasionally require deliveries on the day following a holiday.

Offerors are to address their ability to make weekend and the day after holiday deliveries including the amount of additional prior notification required if any.
