WMHC Fresh Produce for 9/30/25 Delivery

The state and local contract opportunity is a procurement for fresh produce delivery to Western Maryland Hospital Center (WMHC) scheduled for Tuesday, September 30, 2025, located in Washington County, Maryland. The procurement involves a comprehensive produce order detailed in the Produce_Order9_30_2025.xlsx spreadsheet, which specifies quantities and pack sizes for various fruits and vegetables including red delicious apples (100 count), bananas in multiple color stages (150 count), red seedless grapes (18 lb), oranges (100 count), and multiple vegetable types such as cabbage, baby carrots, celery, cucumbers, iceberg lettuce, salad mix, Idaho baking potatoes, and tomatoes. The bid is officially posted on September 24, 2025, with a submission deadline of September 29, 2025, indicating a tight turnaround for potential vendors. The procurement appears to be a standardized template for a weekly produce delivery, with reference numbers MOOP# and BPM# 053293 suggesting a formal procurement process. While the current document shows zero dollar values for line items, it serves as a preliminary solicitation for a produce supply contract.

Based on the available information, no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation are explicitly outlined in the procurement documents. The bid sheet does not specify incumbent vendors, existing infrastructure requirements, or integration specifications. Similarly, no precise award values or budget ranges are currently detailed in the procurement documentation. The lack of specific pricing information and the standardized format implies this might be an initial solicitation or preparatory document for a larger produce supply contract for the Western Maryland Hospital Center. Potential vendors would need to carefully review the detailed produce specifications in the Excel spreadsheet and be prepared to meet the precise quantity and quality requirements for each listed produce item. Vendors should also be prepared to demonstrate their capability to consistently deliver fresh, high-quality produce within the specified pack sizes and quantities by the designated delivery date of September 30, 2025.
