About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Subsistence is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) for a Subsistence Prime Vendor (SPV) contract supporting food distribution in the Utah Region. The RFI seeks to gather market research information from potential vendors capable of providing full-line foodservice items to multiple military and federally funded customers, including Hill Air Force Base, Utah Air National Guard, Camp Williams, and other facilities. Key contract requirements include the ability to deliver food products within 48 hours of order placement, support for various food categories such as canned, dry, chill, dairy, frozen meats, and seafood, and capacity to serve remotely located customers with smaller pack-size items. The RFI specifically requests vendors to confirm their capabilities, delivery methods, and willingness to complete a potential 5-year contract. Responses are due by close of business on December 13, 2024, and should be submitted via email to three specified DLA Troop Support contacts.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside designation, meaning the opportunity appears open to all qualified vendors. While no incumbent contractors are named, the RFI suggests this is part of a broader CONUS SPV program for food distribution across multiple U.S. regions. The contract will cover food support for multiple military and federal facilities in Utah, with potential customers including dining facilities, national guard units, and training installations. Vendors are expected to demonstrate comprehensive capabilities, including emergency order responsiveness, weather-independent delivery, and flexible customer grouping or routing strategies. The eventual contract is anticipated to be a long-term, 5-year agreement, though specific award values or precise quantity requirements are not detailed in this market research document.
