Turkey Products

The state of Pennsylvania, specifically Lackawanna County and Dale Borough, is seeking procurement of turkey products for the SCI Retreat during April, May, and June 2014. This contract opportunity, identified by the unique ID 66d5f174323913d9c80ad8b3, was posted on March 14, 2014, with a proposal submission deadline of March 20, 2014. The procurement focuses on two specific turkey product types: ground turkey and turkey thighs, which will be used to supply the SCI Retreat's food service needs for the specified three-month period. The solicitation appears to be a targeted procurement for institutional food service, likely for a state correctional or residential facility. Potential vendors must be prepared to provide consistent, high-quality turkey products that meet institutional food service standards and can be delivered reliably throughout the specified months. While detailed evaluation criteria are not explicitly stated, vendors can anticipate considerations such as product quality, pricing, delivery capabilities, and compliance with institutional food service regulations.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. Without additional information provided in the original documentation, it is not possible to definitively state whether there are specific vendor qualification requirements beyond the ability to supply the specified turkey products. The potential award value is not clearly defined in the available information, though it appears to be a relatively short-term procurement covering a three-month supply period. The procurement is geographically limited to Lackawanna County and Dale Borough, which may impact the pool of potential vendors. Interested suppliers would need to demonstrate their capability to consistently provide ground turkey and turkey thighs to the SCI Retreat facility during April, May, and June 2014, with the expectation of meeting institutional food service standards and delivery requirements.
