About this opportunity
The Tennessee Army National Guard is soliciting commercial catering services through RFP W912L7-26-Q-0503 to provide meals for military personnel during the 194th Engineer Brigade's Memphis Mission. The requirement is for a local Memphis, TN area vendor classified under NAICS code 722320 (Caterers) with a $9M size standard to deliver hot, grab-and-go meals including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and potentially midnight meals for approximately 150 soldiers per meal type. The contractor must be an established meal provider capable of accommodating daily meal count variations on short notice, with food trucks explicitly excluded from consideration. The government will award the contract to the responsible offeror whose proposal is most advantageous considering technical factors and price, with technical capability being significantly more important than cost. The solicitation closes on Friday, October 3, 2025 at 2:00 PM EST (1:00 PM CST), with the period of performance beginning October 5, 2025.
This is an unrestricted procurement with no set-aside designation, and no current contractors or incumbents are identified in the documentation. The contract covers meal services for up to 365 days, with an initial requirement for up to 45 days in round one, potentially totaling 152,121 meals across four quarters from October 2025 to September 2026. Daily meal counts can range from 10 to 150 soldiers per meal type, with the contractor required to maintain 98% on-time delivery performance standards. The place of performance is Memphis, Tennessee, specifically requiring meal delivery to 4593 Swinnea Road at the 164th Air Wing facility. Vendors must complete contractor badge applications and vetting forms to gain installation access, with all meals to be delivered in disposable containers with utensils and condiments included.
