Preventive Maintenance and Unscheduled Repairs of Miscellaneous Food Processing Equipment - Group 8

The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) is soliciting quotes for preventive maintenance and unscheduled repairs of miscellaneous food processing equipment through Request for Quote (RFQ) HQC00426QE005. The contract requires quarterly preventive maintenance services and responsive unscheduled repair services for equipment such as meat saws, mixer/grinder systems, rotary ovens, conveyors, choppers, tenderizers, slicers, and proofers at three California-based commissary locations. Contractors must provide all labor, supervision, tools, OEM-compliant parts, and transportation, with service available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. Evaluation will be based on three factors: technical capability of service (acceptable/unacceptable rating), price (fair and reasonable determination), and past performance; quoters without prior experience but otherwise deemed responsible and technically acceptable will receive an acceptable rating. Questions must be submitted by April 29, 2026, and completed quotes are due by May 5, 2026, at 4:30 PM EST.

This solicitation is designated as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside with a NAICS code 811310 and a small business size standard of $12.5 million in annual revenues. No incumbent contractor is identified in the solicitation documents. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed price indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) agreement with a base year from June 1, 2026, through May 31, 2027, followed by four optional one-year periods extending through May 31, 2031, creating a maximum five-year performance period. The equipment inventory across the three locations includes quantities such as two Band Type Meat Saws at each location, four Automatic Meat Slicers at Travis Air Force Base, and varying quantities of mixer/grinders and ovens distributed across Moffett Field, Ord Community, and Travis Air Force Base. Work will be performed on-site at the three California military commissary locations unless the Contracting Officer's Representative approves equipment removal for off-site service.
