About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Sam Houston is seeking quotations to provide noon meals consisting of sub sandwiches for applicants processing through the Springfield Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) located in Chicopee, Massachusetts. Contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and meet small business qualifications under NAICS 311991 (Perishable Prepared Food Manufacturing) with a size standard of 700 employees. A critical requirement is passing a Veterinary Service Food Protection Audit, as the facility operates on a military installation, and contractors must obtain local approval of their food preparation facility prior to contract award. The government will evaluate quotations based on the contractors' ability to meet these requirements and provide compliant services, though specific evaluation criteria beyond compliance are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice. Key deadlines include January 5, 2026, at 1:00 PM EST for submission of written questions to Robert Applewhite, and approximately January 21, 2026, for quote submission on SAM.gov.
This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS 311991, making it unavailable to large businesses or entities that do not meet the small business size standard. No incumbent contractor or current service provider is identified in the pre-solicitation materials. The contract period runs from April 1, 2026, through March 30, 2027, with two optional one-year renewal periods available, providing up to three years of potential service delivery. Specific pricing information and contract value ranges are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice; these details will likely appear in the full RFQ when posted on SAM.gov. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on January 12, 2026, with the formal RFQ anticipated to be released on or around December 22, 2025, providing interested small businesses with advance notice to prepare their responses.
