About this opportunity
The US Marshals Service is seeking catering services to provide prepared meals for Special Operations Group training events at the Louisiana National Guard Training Center in Pineville, Louisiana. The contractor will prepare and serve three daily meals plus healthy snacks for training participants during three separate periods between October 18 and November 20, 2025, totaling 24 training days. Key requirements include maintaining high nutritional standards of 3,500-4,500 calories per day per attendee, using USDA-grade ingredients, and providing minimum staffing levels including cooks, food preparation specialists, servers, and cleaning personnel. The government will evaluate proposals based on five criteria: contract catering personnel experience, contract management experience, contractor performance references, questionnaire responses, and price, with the first four criteria weighted more heavily than price. Questions are due by September 15, 2025, and completed quotes must be submitted electronically by September 22, 2025.
This opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 722320 (Caterers) with a $9.0 million size standard, and contractors must have a physical business location within 50 miles of Pineville, Louisiana. The service periods will accommodate varying group sizes of 50, 35, and 50 participants respectively across the three training sessions. Based on the pricing sheet, the total meal requirements include 1,020 breakfast meals, 1,020 lunch meals, 985 dinner meals, and 2,040 snacks across all training periods. The contract is subject to fiscal year 2026 funding availability and will be awarded as a firm-fixed-price arrangement. Some meals will be served at off-site training locations within a 20-mile radius of the main facility, requiring the contractor to manage transportation logistics across highway, unimproved, and gravel road conditions.
