US Army Training Center/Fort Jackson - Base Ice Contract

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Hood is seeking offers for a contract to provide monthly deliveries of 16-pound bags of cubed ice to the US Army Training Center and Fort Jackson in South Carolina. The contract has a five-year period of performance from May 2024 through February 2029. The contractor will also be required to provide 37 small ice storage units to be placed at various locations on the base. Offers will be evaluated on a lowest price, technically acceptable (LPTA) basis, and the government intends to award a single contract without discussions. Proposals are due by March 27, 2024.

This is a total small business set-aside contract under NAICS code 312113, with a place of performance in Columbia, South Carolina. The current incumbent contractor is Zippy Ice, Inc., which was awarded a $3,435,000 contract in 2019. The required quantities are not explicitly stated, but the contractor must reference the existing contract to determine current average annual and monthly demand. The contractor will be responsible for providing all equipment, vehicles, and quality control measures necessary to reliably deliver the ice as required.
