NOV. 2014 produce

The state and local contract opportunity, identified by ID 66d5e9cb323913d9c80acafd, is a procurement for fresh produce delivery to SCI Retreat for November 2014, posted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The procurement specifically involves jurisdictions including Lackawanna County, Dale Borough, and Harrison City CDP. The contract focuses on procuring and delivering fresh produce to a state correctional institution, with a specific time-limited scope for the month of November 2014. The solicitation was originally posted on October 6, 2014, with a response deadline of October 15, 2014, indicating a relatively compressed procurement timeline. Potential vendors would need to demonstrate capability to consistently deliver high-quality fresh produce to the correctional facility, meeting potential nutritional standards and delivery requirements specific to institutional food service.

While specific details about set-aside designations or vendor restrictions are not explicitly provided in the document, state correctional institution contracts often have specific vendor qualifications and potentially prioritize local or regional suppliers. The contract appears to be a routine monthly produce procurement with likely modest total value, typical of institutional food service contracts. No incumbent vendor information is disclosed in the available documentation. The procurement is limited to a single month's produce delivery, suggesting this might be part of a recurring monthly procurement process for the state correctional facility. Potential vendors would likely need to provide documentation of food safety certifications, delivery capabilities, and potentially demonstrate ability to meet institutional purchasing guidelines and nutritional requirements.
