Monthly Meats - Qualified Vendors List - Department of Corrections

The State of Missouri Department of Corrections is seeking to establish a Qualified Vendors List (QVL) for monthly meat product deliveries through a Request for Proposal (RFP) with solicitation number RFPC30034902100772. The procurement is designed to secure multiple vendors capable of providing meat products to various Department of Corrections agency locations throughout Missouri. Vendors must complete and upload Exhibit A (a mandatory pricing spreadsheet) through the MissouriBUYS electronic procurement system, along with completed Exhibits B, C, and any other applicable exhibits. The contract period will run from the date of award through December 31, 2021, with deliveries required to be Free On Board (FOB) Destination. The solicitation opened on December 14, 2020, at 10:00 PM GMT and closed on December 28, 2020, at 8:00 PM GMT, with vendors required to submit all documentation electronically. Payment terms for the contract are set at Net 45 Days, and the state will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of submitted responses to determine award recipients.

The solicitation appears to be open to all vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types. No information was provided about incumbent vendors or current contractors, and the document does not indicate any specific requirements for disadvantaged business enterprises. The RFP does not specify a total contract value or budget range, leaving potential pricing details to be determined through vendor submissions. Vendors are solely responsible for ensuring timely and complete submission of all required documentation through the MissouriBUYS system. For technical questions, vendors can contact Melissa Sackett at 573-526-2716. The state will evaluate submissions based on the completed pricing spreadsheet and accompanying exhibits, with the goal of establishing a qualified vendor pool for monthly meat product procurement for the Department of Corrections.
