FCC YAZOO CITY - Q2 FY26 - Subsistence & Religious Diet

The Federal Bureau of Prisons' Federal Correctional Institution in Yazoo City, Mississippi is soliciting bids for various food items to support subsistence and religious dietary needs at the facility. The Department of Justice agency seeks qualified vendors to supply food products with delivery required by January 19, 2026, though weekly deliveries are permitted for items such as bread and milk. Contract requirements mandate that all pricing include shipping costs, with delivery on an FOB Destination basis, and the contract will be awarded on a firm-fixed price structure. Evaluation criteria will weight past performance approximately equal in value to price, with particular attention to vendor reliability in meeting delivery schedules and product specifications; poor past performance, delivery failures, or specification non-compliance may result in a vendor being deemed non-responsible. The solicitation was posted on November 17, 2025, with proposals due by December 5, 2025, and all interested parties must maintain current registration and representations on SAM.gov at the time of quotation submission.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, limiting competition to certified small business concerns and establishing mandatory flow-down requirements for any subcontractor relationships. No incumbent contractor or award value has been specified in the solicitation notice, and the specific quantities of individual food items are not detailed in the available documentation. The place of performance is located in Yazoo City, Mississippi 39194, where the Federal Correctional Complex will receive all deliveries. Vendors are classified under NAICS code 311999 (All Other Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing) and PSC code 8945 (Food, Oils And Fats), and all future solicitation amendments and award notifications will be distributed through SAM.gov and Unison, making continuous monitoring of these platforms essential for interested parties.
