15B11824Q00000005 3RD QTR FY 24 subsistence (bread, dairy, & eggs).

This pre-solicitation notice seeks fixed price quotes for supplying bread, dairy, and egg products to the United States Penitentiary Big Sandy for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. The solicitation will be issued by the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons as acquisition number 15B11824Q00000005. Vendors must be able to provide these subsistence items to the penitentiary for the three month period and pricing will be the primary basis of evaluation. The response date is March 4, 2024 though the notice does not specify when the subsequent solicitation or award will occur.

This requirement has been set aside for total small business participation. The projected NAICS code is 311511 for dairy product manufacturing and the predominate PSC code will likely be 8995 for subsistence items. As this is a recurring requirement, the incumbent contractor may recompete for the award which is expected to have a value between $50,000-$150,000 given previous consumption levels. The quarterly delivery timeline and fixed pricing will be critical components of any submission.
