The Federal Bureau of Prisons' Federal Correctional Institution at Fort Dix is seeking price quotes for subsistence items including eggs, bread, and dairy products for inmate consumption during the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 (January 1–March 31, 2026). This solicitation (15BFTD26Q00000001) is issued under NAICS code 311999 (All Other Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,500 employees. The government will award line items to the lowest responsive and responsible offeror, with the exception of bread items (hot dog buns, hamburger buns, and whole wheat buns), where pricing will be evaluated collectively to ensure the best overall value. All vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), accept Electronic Funds Transfer as payment, and strictly adhere to the detailed National Menu Specifications provided. Offerors must submit electronically by November 20, 2025 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time, including completed Standard Form 1449 documentation, a Contractor Information Sheet, and an Excel pricing sheet with unit prices; any deviations from solicitation requirements may result in quote rejection.

This is a 100% small business set-aside opportunity with no identified incumbent contractors listed in the solicitation materials. The procurement encompasses significant volumes of food products, with historical first-quarter data indicating vendor awards ranging from approximately $9,750 to $149,308, though specific budget allocations for the second quarter are not disclosed in the notice. Delivery is scheduled to commence on January 1, 2026, with all shipments accepted Monday through Thursday between 7:00 AM and 2:00 PM at the facility in New Hanover, New Jersey (McGuire Air Force Base area). Vendors must comply with strict delivery requirements including palletized shipments, temperature controls (34–41°F for non-frozen perishables, 0°F or below for frozen items), and adherence to BOP National Menu Specifications; failure to meet these standards may negatively impact future award opportunities. Contact for coordination and questions should be directed to the specified Bureau of Prisons contracting personnel at aaponteberrios@bop.gov and bvirgillo@bop.gov.
