The solicitation requires vendors to provide fully cooked, shelf-stable MRE components with between 800 and 1,200 calories, and a best-by date no earlier than 2029. Quotes are due by September 18, 2024 at 12PM Eastern and should be emailed to the contract specialist, Edwin Pasha. The procurement will be awarded on a lowest price technically acceptable basis, with offerors required to complete a technical compliance checklist and provide representations and certifications.

The quantities required range from 74 to 168 cases of MREs to be delivered within 3 months of award to 5 airports in Hawaii and Saipan.
