About this opportunity

The General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service is seeking to procure Purina brand dog food for Military Working Dogs through a Request for Proposal (RFP 47QSSC-25-Q-0022) for a single-award Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The procurement covers seven specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs) of Purina Pro Plan dog food products, including Adult Weight Management, Large Breed, and Sport Performance varieties in various sizes ranging from 18 to 50 pounds per bag. Offerors must be authorized Purina resellers, deliver products within 10 days of order receipt, comply with MIL-STD-129R marking standards, and utilize either the OMS Vendor Portal or Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) for order processing. The contract will be awarded using a lowest-price, technically acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology, with technical criteria including delivery timeframe, OMS/EDI capability, Trade Agreements Act compliance, and Purina reseller authorization. Following multiple amendments extending the deadline, proposals are now due by July 22, 2025, at 5:00 PM EST, with the government intending to award based on initial quotes without discussions.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is classified under NAICS code 311111 (Dog and Cat Food Manufacturing) with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The contract has a maximum ceiling value of $11,694,178 over a five-year performance period, consisting of one base year and four option years, with individual orders capped at $249,999.99 and a minimum contract guarantee of $1,000. The solicitation requires brand-name Purina products specifically, as justified under FAR 6.302-1(c) because Purina Pro Plan is the only dog food approved by the Joint Service Military Working Dog Committee to meet nutritional standards for Military Working Dogs. Estimated quantities range from 2,032 to 6,097 bags per product item across the contract period. Delivery locations include customers within the Continental United States and overseas consolidation points, with the place of performance listed as New York, NY.
