About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence is seeking a contractor to manage and replenish Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) for Flameless Ration Heaters (FRH) used in Meals Ready to Eat (MRE) and flat packs for Unitized Group Ration-E (UGR-E). This procurement requires the contractor to manufacture, store, rotate, and distribute approximately 3,936,600 FRH units and 160,000 flat packs, all of which must be produced in the United States in accordance with military specifications MIL-R-44398 and MIL-DTL-32235. The contractor must maintain climate-controlled storage facilities within the Continental United States capable of accommodating 4.5 trailer loads of FRHs and 160,000 flat packs, provide monthly management reports, and ensure proper inventory rotation based on shelf-life considerations. The solicitation will use a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process, requiring offerors to demonstrate technical capability through Product Demonstration Models (PDMs) and provide comprehensive subcontracting plans. The government intends to evaluate and award without discussions, meaning offerors must submit their best initial terms by the proposal deadline of June 18, 2025, at 3:30 PM EST.
The solicitation indicates no set-aside designation has been used, making this procurement open to all eligible contractors, though some documents reference EDWOSB (Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business) considerations. No current incumbents or contractors are identified in the solicitation materials. The contract will be structured as an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) firm-fixed price agreement with an estimated total value of $2,575,217.80, a maximum potential value of $6,240,000, and a guaranteed minimum of 10% of the estimated value ($257,521.78). The contract will span five years with a performance period running from August 30, 2025, to September 1, 2030, during which the contractor will be responsible for managing inventory replenishment and distribution to MRE and UGR-E assemblers. The place of performance is Cincinnati, Ohio 45212, where the contractor must maintain the required storage and distribution capabilities.
