The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence is soliciting quotes for Equipment IST - FTRD (NSN 7310GM5022323), which falls under the Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing category and is classified as Food Preparation/Serving Equipment. This is an open procurement allowing all responsible sources to submit quotes, with electronic submission permitted. The solicitation was posted on February 10, 2026, with a deadline for quote submission on February 17, 2026, providing interested contractors with seven days to prepare and submit their responses. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the solicitation notice, the competitive nature of this procurement and the allowance for multiple sources to submit indicates that factors such as price, quality, and capability to meet delivery requirements will likely influence the award decision.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition exclusively to small business concerns as defined by the Small Business Administration. The requirement specifies a quantity of one unit with delivery to the W1D1 Natick Soldier Center within 120 days after order (ADO), reflecting a relatively expedited delivery timeline typical of military supply chains.

The equipment classification under Food Preparation/Serving Equipment indicates this item supports subsistence operations for Department of Defense personnel. Small businesses meeting the relevant size standards for NAICS code 333310 and capable of delivering specialized food service equipment to the Natick location within the specified timeframe are encouraged to submit competitive quotes.
