About this opportunity

The Special Notice published by the Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS) announces the agency's intent to award a sole source contract to Lake States Yeast LLC for the purchase of 12,500 lbs of Inactive Dry Yeast. This sole source award is necessary to support the Mexican Fruit Fly rearing program operated by the USDA APHIS Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) division in Edinburg, Texas.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the public of the agency's intent to make a sole source award due to an emergency need for the yeast product. The contract is required by September 16, 2024 or earlier to avoid a production stoppage that would negatively impact the agency's mission and the Texas citrus industry. The contracting activity conducted market research and determined that Lake States Yeast LLC is the only vendor capable of meeting the immediate delivery timeline. Interested parties are instructed to direct any questions or comments to the Contracting Officer, Kim Yen Tu, via email only. This Special Notice is not a request for quotes or proposals, and there are no set-aside requirements for the contract.
