About this opportunity
The Iowa Army National Guard seeks meal services for the 185th Regional Training Institute at Camp Dodge Joint Maneuver Training Center in Johnston, Iowa, with proposals due September 29 and questions due September 23. The procurement is a Total Small Business set-aside under solicitation W912LP-27-R-0001.
Place of performance is Building M-7/5515, 7105 NW 70th Avenue, Johnston, Iowa 50131. The NAICS code is 722310 (Food Service Contractors); the small business size standard is $47 million. The contract period runs October 19, 2026 through September 21, 2027.
The requirement encompasses 7,940 breakfast meals, 7,848 lunch meals, and 7,910 dinner meals delivered via buffet-style service at three daily windows: breakfast 6:30–7:30 a.m., lunch 11:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m., and dinner 5:00–6:00 p.m. The contractor furnishes all food, preparation and heating/cooling equipment, insulated containers, disposable serviceware, and serving personnel. Hot items must maintain 135°F or above; cold items 41°F or below, per Army Technical Bulletin Medical 530 and FDA Food Code. Government-provided menus permit deviations only for starches (potato-based), vegetables, breads, and desserts (cake-based); entrees, salads, and beverages are fixed. The contractor must comply with Iowa Code Chapter 137F and AR 30-22 food-safety and personnel appearance standards.
Meal quantities in the pricing table are estimates only; invoicing is based on verified headcount documented via AFMIS Closing Reports. Past Performance Questionnaires are due by September 28 at 10:00 a.m. Central. Offerors must submit 3–5 past-performance references from contracts within three years of solicitation, with at least one demonstrating comparable meal-service scope. Award is on a best-value basis with Past Performance and Technical Capability combined weighted more heavily than Price. The contract is Firm-Fixed Price. Subcontracting is permitted; FAR 52.219-14 does not apply because the anticipated contract value does not exceed $350,000. The contracting officer is Kelsey Letcher; the contract specialist is Hunter Maeder.
