About this opportunity

The North Carolina Army National Guard is seeking to award multiple Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) for catered meal services to support monthly training events and annual exercises across approximately 150 armory locations. The BPA holders will act as liaisons between the government and approved restaurants/feeding establishments, coordinating feeding and making timely payments to subcontractors. The BPA calls will be issued at firm-fixed-prices, with all vendor fees included, not to exceed the annual basic daily feeding allowance rate. The government is seeking feedback on the vendors' ability to pay restaurants upfront while waiting for government payment processing after feeding events.

This opportunity has been set aside for total small business participation. The anticipated NAICS code is 722320 (Caterers) and the PSC code is S206 (Food Services). The government has not provided any information on potential incumbent contractors or estimated award values. Interested parties must respond by April 19, 2024, and the government may pursue a multiple award approach based on the market research.

Notice text

The North Carolina Army National Guard anticipates awarding multiple award BPAs (Blanket Purchase Agreement) for catered meal services. The intent is to have a BPA holder act as a liaison between the Government and the approved feeding establishments. BPA holders will coordinate feeding with, and make payments to, the establishments. They will ensure soldiers across approximately 150 armory locations are fed and subcontractors receive payment in a timely manner. The BPA holder is able to request establishments be added to the list, but the Government must inspect and approve. Each BPA holder will be primarily responsible for the armories located in their region, but may be asked to handle back-up BPA calls from other regions if needed. These services will be required to support monthly inactive duty training events and annual training exercises. BPA Calls will be issued for the entire meal cost as a FFP; all prime vendor fees are to be included in the standardized price list, with total meal rates NTE the annual BDFA (basic daily feeding allowance) rates provided by National Guard Bureau. This rate is treated similar to the GSA Per Diem rates. The Government is guaging interest and requesting feedback on this future requirement. The majority of BPA calls will consist of Soldiers going to the restaurant to eat with a pre-approved set of meal options or max rate. Far less common are catered events at the Soldiers' location. The BPA holder may need to demonstrate the ability to pay vendors upfront while waiting for the Government to process payments after feeding events. Please identify in your response whether this would be feasible.
