Catered Meals BPA DEC 2026 - 2031

The Utah Army National Guard seeks quotes for a five-year, multi-award Blanket Purchase Agreement for catered and boxed meal services under a Total Small Business set-aside, with quotes due December 9, 2026 and questions due December 2, 2026. Solicitation W911YP27QA001 is a Request for Quotes under NAICS 722320 (Caterers) with a $9,000,000 size standard, and the USPFO for Utah administers it. Amendment 0001 moved the question deadline from November 30 to December 2, 2026 and the quote deadline from December 7 to December 9, 2026.

Services support Utah National Guard units at more than 20 locations throughout Utah for Individual Drill Training and Annual Training. Offerors may propose coverage for specific locations or regions rather than statewide service. Quotes are delivered to Draper, Utah, where the contracting office sits. The base period runs December 27, 2026 through December 26, 2031, with no minimum purchase and no obligation of funds at the master BPA level. Offerors must submit separate annual rate schedules for the base year and Years 2 through 5. Prices are firm for each annual ordering period, subject to annual review.

Awards go to all responsible small business offerors submitting technically acceptable quotes, using best-value evaluation under FAR 12.203 with established rates assessed for fairness and reasonableness. Quotes must state minimum and maximum weekday and weekend meal capacity and confirm coverage by location per the Geographic Coverage table (5.4.3.1), aligned to the Annual Estimated Quantity of Meals. The source does not provide evaluation weights.

The PWS requires breakfast, lunch, dinner, holiday, and boxed meals with a minimum of 850 calories per meal and dietary accommodations for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, kosher, and halal diets. Performance standards include 98% on-time delivery with zero no-shows and food safety compliance under TB MED 530, AR 30-22, and AR 40-657. Three service tiers apply: Level 1 full catering with servers, Level 2 vendor delivery only, and Level 3 Government pickup. The Contract Manager and Alternate must be prime contractor employees with at least five years of food service management experience and a current Food Protection Manager Certification. No security clearance is required; facility access requires a valid driver's license only. Prime contractors must perform at least 50% of personnel costs per call order with their own employees under FAR 52.219-14, and may use qualified local catering subcontractors. Orders are placed by BPA call or Government Purchase Card, invoicing runs through WAWF, and current SAM registration is a condition of award.
