About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) for full line fresh fruit and vegetable support for USDA School and Reservation customers in the Wyoming Zone. The agency seeks to gather market research and vendor feedback to develop a future solicitation for produce distribution across multiple Wyoming geographic groups. Potential vendors are required to complete a comprehensive market research survey addressing their capabilities to service all customers in the Wyoming Zone, including minimum delivery requirements, current distribution operations, and federal government contracting experience. The survey also requires vendors to confirm their registration status in SAM.GOV and DIBBS, provide PACA licensing information, and declare their small business status. All responses must be submitted electronically to Robert Small and Amanda Quaile by March 7, 2025, with the understanding that no compensation will be provided for the information submitted and this RFI does not constitute a binding commitment.
The solicitation covers four distinct geographic groups: Wyoming Schools West, Wyoming Schools North, Wyoming Schools Central, and Wyoming Reservations, with a comprehensive delivery schedule spanning over 80 locations including school districts and tribal locations. The contract has an estimated base period value of $4,955,580.50, with a projected four-year total of $19,822,322.00 and a maximum potential value of $49,555,805.00. The procurement will involve supplying various fresh fruits and vegetables such as apples, oranges, lettuce, carrots, onions, and potatoes, with specific size and packaging requirements. Estimated annual quantities vary by group, ranging from 491 cases for the smallest group to 2,672 cases for the largest. The solicitation is categorized under NAICS code 311991 for Perishable Prepared Food Manufacturing and PSC code 8915 for Fruits and Vegetables, with no specific small business set-aside currently designated.
